University Projects
Autonomous Car Racing using Reinforcement Learning and Genetic Algorithm
Master's / Vilnius University (In Progress)
The goal of this project is to implement reinforcement learning and genetic algorithm for an autonomous racing car application and to compare the performances of these approaches. The performance of evolutionary computation versus reinforcement learning (hybrid strategy using both RL and GA techniques) will also be examined. Unity game engine and its Machine Learning toolkit will be used together with TensorFlow to create the required simulations.
Optimisation of EGR systems for diesel vehicle applications (Ford)
Master's / University of Bath
Used a Ricardo WAVE model to examine the potential benefits of EGR systems in diesel passenger vehicles. Developed control strategies for low pressure, high pressure and hybrid EGR system models and tested them by running simulations of the ECE-15 drive cycle. Compared steady-state and transient performances of the EGR systems in terms of their NOx, CO and soot emissions, brake power and fuel consumption.
High-Capacity Scissor Lift (ALE Heavylift)
Bachelor's / University of Bath
Worked in a team to design a high capacity scissor lift to significantly reduce the time and cost of bridge replacement operations. Was responsible for the design of the lifting mechanism. Completed calculations to choose suitable actuators, designed custom mounting brackets in a CAD environment and carried out FEA analysis on all custom parts to ensure their reliability under the expected loads.
