Simulative Investigation of the Injury Criteria of Conventional Impactors in Pedestrian Protection compared to THUMS dummies. -Setup and perform explicit Finite element simulations of Legform impactors (APLI, FlexPli & Upper leg) and Headform impactors within the loadcase framework of EURONCAP and Technical Bulletin 024 in the field of Pedestrian Protection. -Conduct FE Human body simulations with crash impact scenario and study the kinematic and injury criteria differences with impactor simulations.

-Dealt with finite element Human Body Simulations (HBM) in the development from the perspective of Occupant Safety. -Create the experimental setup in PAMCRASH and conduct explicit FE simulation, strength and stiffness analysis of the created model and evaluation of injury mechanism and post processsing using ANIMATOR. -Recreation of the finite element human body models to specific anthropometric parameters according to the different experimental setup for crash simulations.

Perform following tasks within the framework of the two EU PROJECTS:“ OSCCAR-Future Occupant Safety for Crashes in car“ and „ ATTENTION: Artificial Intelligence for Real-Time Injury Prediction“ Development of Advanced Control approach algorithm using LS-DYNA for muscle driven movement generation Simulation of Active Finite Element Human Body Model . Implementation of Controller approach in Extended Hill Type Muscle using LSDyna

Perform FEM simulation with regard to fatigue crack growth modeling and accompanying parameter studies.

Perform study of Impression Creep and fatigue behavior of Friction Stir Welded Al-2014 and Al-5052 alloy. -The creep behaviour of the friction stir welded alloy Al-5052 and Al-2014 was investigated. - Constitutive modelling of the creep behaviour was carried out taking into account the temperature, stress and creep rate in the steady state. - The behaviour of fatigue crack growth rate in different welding zones under repeated loading were investigated

- Designed and Performed extensive study on the Air Brake system of passenger trains using CATIA - Performed extensive study on the Air Brake system of passenger trains and examined various parts and processes involved in the overhauling of bogies.
