Master thesis related to lithium-ion batteries for energy storage, titled: 'Modified interfaces for high-voltage lithium-ion batteries' Project funded from BMBF

Focus - Material research for high-voltage lithium-ion battery; Energy Storage Systems (ESS)

• Hands-on experience with electrode preparation • Swagelok cell assembly with standard OCV and CV tests along with galvanostatic cycling • Operation with XPS characterization technique with data acquisition and data analysis

• Responsible for the management of the workshop and logistics related to spare parts • To coordinate between customers and mechanics for timely completion of services • Managing team and estimating repair costs

• Performed collaborative work with a team of four colleagues to eradicate the problem arising in the ammunition box assembly jig. • Re-designed the ammunition box assembly jig (on CATIA and Creo) for LCA Tejas with proper modifications for optimization with respect to handling and time-saving aspects.
