I provide installers with needed engineering data for aircraft manufacturing production. Involved in the updating of planning documentation utilized for aircraft assembly procedures. Redlining of mismatched parts during fuselage assembly. Currently work with composite and titanium structure in 787 production. Assist in fuselage production efforts in all needed capacities to ensure schedules are being met. Work with Catia V5 and Enovia on a daily basis. IVT and other Boeing programs associated with aircraft production is utilized as well. Very strong familiarity with composite and titanium structures and how to best utilize such materials for aircraft production. These materials save weight as a result fuel costs. This is the current trend in aircraft production.
Goodrich Lighting Systems.: Oxford (Mar 2007 to June 2007).
Utilized Ansys stress analysis software to analyze lighting systems to be installed on Boeing aircraft. F22 light systems were analyzed. Acceleration and vibration loads were applied to a light assembly to determine deformation, load limits, factor of safety, stress, and strain. Free body diagram of light assembly was initially developed. Material properties were determined. All collected engineering data was inputed into Ansys program to get desired results. Design changes were recommended for light assemblies that did not meet stress analysis standards.
Boeing Co.: Volt (Jan 2006 to Sept 2006).
Experience with Catia V5 design work on the boeing commercial 787 all composite aircraft. Designing various composite and titanium repair methods to be used in the field. The design concepts are to be used when certified in standard structural repair manuals to be used by field technicians. Involved in the structural analysis of the repair concepts for certification purposes. Experience with both composite and titanium structure. Cutting edge technology.
L3 Communications: Aries Group (July 2005 to Nov 2005). Secret Clearance.
Did Stress Analysis and structural engineering work on the UH-60 and UH-47 helicopters at Bluegrass station (U.S. army base) in Lexington, KY. Involved in doing stress reports on modifications to helicopter structure and/or analysis on equipment installs. Crash load analysis and structural design. Analysis work for engine mounts on helicopters to have new higher output engine replacements. Miscellaneous analysis.
Westar Corporation: ESG Company. (June 2004 to Nov 2004, Secret Clearance.)
Conducted Stress Analysis and structural engineering work on the UH-60 helicopter at Redstone Arsenal (U.S. army base) in Huntsville, AL. Involved with flight testing exceedance analysis, structural modifications, structural analysis, turbine engines, and equipment. Qualification of loads (crash) specifications. Miscellaneous analysis.
Aircraft Experience: EER Systems Contracting Company: Modern Technologies Corp. (April 1999 to May 2004).
This involves aging aircraft analysis, designing repairs for structural cracks resulting from stress corrosion, finding or making tooling needed to fabricate replacement components, utilization of CNC machining techniques to accurately fabricate replacement components to exact drawing specifications, replacing mechanical & hydraulic components when necessary, and maintaining information on repair status of aircraft. Other skills included but not limited to technical manual revisions, creating repair procedures, making technical drawing revisions, etc. C-5 aircraft is the craft I did most work on.
Hydraulic Manifold Design Engineer: Davin Designs: (Dec 1994 to July 1998).
Worked as a hydraulic manifold Design Engineer for Davin Designs in Cape Coral, Florida. Designed hydraulic manifolds used for aircraft and industrial applications. I designed each manifold from startup to completion. Determined raw material of manifold and wall thickness of internally machined out hydraulic passages. Produced engineering drawing of manifold to be fabricated by machine shop. Selected hydraulic directional and pressure controllers like high flow rate directional control valves, pressure relief devices, shutoff valves, pressure measuring connectors to comply with hydraulic schematic. Under engineer’s direction, machine shop personnel fabricated manifold then assembled the end product which was pressure tested at maximum burst pressure determined by engineer. Manifold assembly is then integrated into a hydraulic drive system out in the field used for controlling and hoisting functions.
Mechanical/Structural Engineer: McDonnell Douglas Space Systems: (Nov 1987 to Sept 1993).
Worked as a Mechanical/Structural engineer for McDonnell Douglas Space Systems Division on the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
