‘Education is a companion which no future can depress, no crime can destroy, no enemy can alienate and no nepotism can enslave’. Meditation of this quote has inspired me to excel in academics. My goal is to accomplish a challenging position in the field of Quality Engineering and deliver high-quality products and services to customers. My industrious efforts in Higher Secondary examinations and passion for science helped me gain direct admission in Mechanical Engineering at Thiagarajar College of Engineering, Madurai, one of the renowned institutions in India.

In this study, a Spark Ignition (SI) RENAULT F4RT engine has been modeled with $3$ gases (air, fuel and burned gas). It is a four-cylinder, in-line Port Fuel Injector (PFI), engine in which the engine displacement is $\SI{2000}{cm^3}$. The combustion is considered as homogeneous. The air path (AP) consists in a turbocharger with a mono-scroll turbine controlled by a waste-gate, an intake throttle and a downstream-compressor heat exchanger. This engine is equipped with two Variable Valve Timing (VVT) devices, for intake and exhaust valves, to improve the engine efficiency (performance, fuel and emissions).

What is common between a simple linear actuator and a modern F-16 fighter jet? Many might instantly quote the most conspicuous features. But one aspect of great influence in building systems ranging from an actuator to a jet is the “hidden technology” (as stated by Prof. Richard Murray) being controls. The future of mechanical engineering, when I envision it, is a world of smart, efficient mechanical systems: self-driving cars, autonomous robots, intelligent manufacturing lines and smart energy grids. The ability of Control theory to manage and regulate behavior of systems in multiple domains of Mechanical Engineering is appealing to me. It supplements my tendency to be versatile. With a desire to learn advanced concepts in control theory and to apply them to a real world problem, I want to pursue a MS degree in Mechanical Engineering with an emphasis in Controls.
