Work Experience

July'23 - Present

Hilfswissenschaftler (Research Assistant)

Chair of Computer Architecture and Parallel Systems, TU Munich

Under the professorship of Prof. Martin Schulz, I'm contributing towards the Deep-Sea projects , mainly sys-sage and mitos:

  • Involved in performance optimization and identifying potential memory leaks within the sys-sage codebase.
  • Reduced valgrind-reported memory leaks by ~99% in sys-sage (See Durganshu/sys-sage).
  • Improving the portability of mitos for Intel-based computing systems (See Durganshu/mitos).

Hilfswissenschaftler (Research Assistant)

Chair of Aerodynamics and Fluid Mechanics, TU Munich

Under the professorship of Prof. Xiangyu Hu , I developed a Python interface utilizing pybind11 for SPHinXsys, an open-source Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) library , enabling seamless integration of the library's capabilities into Python-based workflows. I worked here until September 2023.

Hilfswissenschaftler (Research Assistant)

Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research, Bremerhaven, Bremen

Contributed towards the development of preCICE 3.0

  • Removed deprecated features, including MPI-single tags, VTK Support, and Master/Slave tags.
  • Migrated existing mesh-to-mesh mapping tests to use samples (preCICE 3.0 feature).

Working student - Cloud Graphics and Gaming

Intel Deutschland GmbH, Munich

At Intel, I was a part of the Visual Cloud Engineering team, mainly involved in:

  • Performance analysis and benchmarking of Vulkan and OpenGL-based graphics applications on Intel dGPUs and Xeon Processors (using Intel Vtune, C, C++, Linux).
  • Extending the features of OpenGL and Vulkan-based ‘gears’ graphics application for cross-OS (Linux and Windows) and cross-API compatibilities with on and off-screen rendering.
  • Supporting the lab infrastructure by Linux troubleshooting and bash scripting.

CAE Engineer - Development

Zeus Numerix Pvt. Ltd., Pune (India)

At Zeus Numerix, I was involved in rigorous problem-solving and software development in the domains of Computational Electromagnetism, Radar signature prediction, and target detection. My responsibilities included:

  • Develop multi-disciplinary numerical algorithms for critical defense, aerospace & industrial applications.
  • Assist in the implementation of specific features to the in-house developed C++ based CAE products, carryout their verification & validation, and customize them for a given application
Projects:
  • C++ based software for Radar Cross Section prediction for complex targets using the SBR method.
  • Algorithm to construct 2D and 3D ISAR images of far-field targets
  • Hotspot identification and scattering center extraction for far-field targets.
  • Structural analysis of Plume Dissipation Mechanism.

May'19 - Dec'19

Research Intern

Indian Institute of Technology (BHU), Varanasi (India)

At the Department of Mechanical Engineering, I worked on the development of:

  • A regression model using curve fitting and non-linear regression techniques to predict the variation of heat transfer coefficient on the surface of a nuclear fuel rod during jet impingement quenching.
  • 1D and 2D numerical models of jet impingement quenching on a nuclear fuel rod using numerical techniques on MATLAB. The models could predict the temperature gradient along the axial and radial directions of a nuclear fuel rod.
C++ MATLAB Python Git

Research Intern

Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur (India)

At the Department of Aerospace Engineering, I worked on the development of:

  • Designing and fabrication of a paper plane launching mechanism that could launch paper planes and MAVs using elastic bands.
  • Simulating the path of the launched vehicle for all the possible flight regimes using MATLAB.
    • MATLAB Python
