Academic Projects

Department of Civil Engineering-California Baptist University, Riverside, CA Feb 2017 to Aug 2018 Flood forecasting after extreme drought-Thesis Project

Predicting the Flash Floods after the Extreme Drought Periods Using HEC-HMS in the Semi-Arid Region, Head Water Watershed in San Bernardino Mountains, CA
Presented in Global Conference on Engineering and Applied Science (GCEAS)- Tokyo, Japan July 2018

Findings: Volume did not increase after the extreme drought and more.

The volume of flow did not increase after the extreme
The predictions using HEC-HMS after the extreme drought can perform at a similar level as the ‘normal’ season.
HEC-HMS yields high statistical values with the flows more significant than 0.8 cfs for peak discharge.
Land cover changes and soil condition changes due to wildfire have a more significant effect on flash floods than extreme drought.

Department of Civil Engineering-California Baptist University, Riverside, CA Sept 2017 to Dec 2017

Modular construction

The project for this modular construction involves the development of single room residential housing.
This project is based on Modular construction using LEED strategies to achieve a sustainable design that can provide environmental and economic benefits.
I am proposing the Modular Construction phase of this development.

Findings:

Based on my analysis of the modular home, the total credits that it would receive are 46 credits.
That would make it a LEED-certified home.
Four more sections may still be evaluated for potential loans to increase the LEED certification.
However, these articles were not taken into consideration.

A case study on Design of Cost-Effective Low Volume Roads with Cement Treated Surfaces-Major Project

Collaborated with a team of 4 others to design a road that is cost-effective and durable.
For achieving this objective, we have attempted to incorporate certain innovative materials, such as Cement Treated surfaces (CTS) using waste cement bag fibers, into the pavement design.
The design methodologies of cement/fly ash stabilized subbase, and the emulsion of stabilized granular subbase is well developed, and guidelines were also published for the design methodology.
The present research work is aimed to fill in this gap by conducting the required dissertation work on cement-treated surfaces within Indian guidelines.
