Krishna Sindhuja Kanduri

• Developing methods in medical device industry for supplying newly formed designs and developing advancements to current systems using SolidWorks. • Understanding the techniques on how startups within the medical device industry operate. • Applying the principles of gap analysis, DFM, tolerance analysis, FEA and risk management to gain insight into the product lifecycle and development of novel technologies.

● Developed sketches and prototype designs in Fusion360 utilizing GD&T, surface modeling, sheet-metal and T-Spline modeling. ● Contributed to Autodesk Fusion360 - CAD teaching modules for facilitating students in engineering design classes. ● Designed desert tortoise legs using linkage concepts and rapid prototyping methods for integration with Lego Mindstorms EV kit parts. The leg prototypes were 3D printed using Stratasys Dimension 3D printer. ● Developed a Sparky-Bot concept (involving parts like body, rods, pins, rotating pins, grabber, etc...) as a teaching module alongside an Autodesk Industry Expert. ● Designed a Pneumatic 6 Cylinder Radial Engine, Horizontal Stirling Motor and Tractor for the Design for Autodesk Challenge. ● Conducted workshops to demonstrate Autodesk Fusion 360 to students, provided specialized, practical inputs.

● Designed and generated 3D prototypes using Stratasys Dimension and MOJO 3D printers. ● Applied the concepts of DFM/A which helped in optimizing the production of 3D prints as well as in improving customers' design for cost efficiency.

● Conducted FEM analysis on Steam Turbine Blades using ABAQUS. Designed the blades in Autodesk Inventor. ● Identified failures zones on the blades and reported desired design improvements.
