(LIMITED)

DCD CONSULTING, LLC. 2013 – PRESENT

Proprietor, Principal Consultant & Failure Analyst. Dr. Davis here developed proposals and programs emphasizing mechanics, materials, composites or nanotechnologies for applications in aerospace, oil & gas, civil infrastructure, transmission pipelines and pressure vessels, and renewable (offshore wind) energy. He managed highly - funded interdisciplinary and multi – institution/university R&D projects. He is an Invited Expert Reviewer of mechanics materials, components or systems manuscripts submitted for publication in top international journals. He conducted Expert Failure Analyses (FA) representing insurance, American International Group (AIG), law firms and their clients, corporations, or individuals in legal actions brought by Adversaries. Analyses were on industrial or domestic equipment and products with resulting Research - based FA Reports for the more than likely RCF. Dr. Davis’ scientific and engineering-based consulting, for example, included developing small minority or female - owned businesses. An example is the female - owned Pipewrap Inc., resulted in improving its share in the Transmission Pipeline rehabilitation market.

SAN JACINTO COLLEGE, DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS AND ENGINEERING.

Faculty of Engineering & Professor.

Dr. Davis is an instructor in engineering courses: introduction to engineering, statics, dynamics, and engineering computing. He instructed drafting & design and demonstrated Creative Design and Problem-solving. An example was a well bore Down - Hole A-135 Metal Drill Pipe Failure. In these type exercises small teams of students were charged to propose a “Root Cause of Failure” (RCF), and as a team, make an oral presentation and provide a written Technical FA Report document. Here students were introduction to the Profession of Failure Analysis. Other valid industry-based FA projects would be introduced for future classes. Also implemented in the course were established approaches and techniques of Study Skills & Time Management so critical for retention rate improvements in STEM. RIMKUS CONSULTING GROUP, INC.

Senior Consultant

Dr. Davis provided Scientific Engineering Consulting and Failure Analyses (FAs) services to law & insurance firms, corporations and individuals. He performed materials and mechanical analyses of equipment & component failures within his expertise. He authored Expert FA Reports for these findings as required. Analyses were on Domestic Items, Business Products & Systems as oil & gas pipes & refinery equipment, and tankage components & systems. FA Reports were submitted proposing the RCF. UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON, WIND ENERGY RESEARCH CENTER,

(WERC).

Research Professor & Consultant.

Dr. Davis was assigned primarily to assist in writing a proposal to the National Science Foundation (NSF) for establishing a multi-institution Engineering Research Center

(ERC) on Offshore Wind Energy. This effort would be to establish an externally funded WERC, for Renewable Energy through Offshore Wind. The WERC would include R&D application of Nanocomposite Materials to the Wind Energy System. The offshore installations would have a focus on nanotechnology in both Aeronautics and Civil Infrastructure fields. Dr. Davis’ research would have focused on the engineering sciences of Fatigue Failures and Fracture Toughness of fiber reinforced polymeric nanocomposites blades. Initially, nanomaterials would have included Functionalized Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) or Nanofibers (CNFs), assuring a superior strength-to-weight fiber reinforced composite system. This mechanical-material property quality is necessary for wind turbine blades in application for large offshore wind turbines.

Senior Research Engineer

Stress analyses for wind turbine blades. Proposed failure criteria for composite wind turbine blades based on plasticity theories. Advocate for renewable energies, wind turbines, solar panels, and wood burning. Wind turbine blades at that time proposed to be constructed using Douglass fir wood.

GENERAL ELECTRIC (GE) COMPANY, APPARATUS SERVICES

DIVISION

Manager, Failure Analysis (FA)

Conducted on-site investigations of mechanical components failures - fans, blowers, pipes, paper rollers, found in the paper and pulp processing facilities, as an example. Claims submitted by the adversary that the repairs performed by the GE company mechanics or technicians were faulty and the cause of the subsequent poor performance or repeated failures of the component or system, as noted above. At an “on-site (Field) investigation”, pertinent information is obtained: component/system operating history, environmental history, stated visual observations of failure incident, identity and names of pertinent individuals and extensive photography of the failed component and surrounding conditions. An initial Technical Failure Analysis (FA) Report was then provided to GE management for their disposition. Re-evaluation and assessments were required in some cases.

GENERAL ELECTRIC (GE) COMPANY, MACHINERY APPARATUS OPERATION.

Stress Engineer

Dr. Davis performed stress analyses on pressure vessel components for the US Navy Nuclear Program using large-scale Finite Element Method (FEM) computer programs for thermal- mechanical evaluations. The analyses focused on discontinuity areas of pressure vessel tanks such as manholes, handholes, and piping. These analyses for analytical fatigue were according to US Navy nuclear pressure vessel design codes. Which are akin to the ASME pressure vessel and boiler codes. Thick-wall plate and vessel theory is the guiding science supporting these analyses. Dr. Davis held USA Department of Energy and US Navy nuclear security clearances at that time. These clearances currently are voided. Dr. Davis currently has no recall nor legal access to any reports or information gathered at those times. More than likely any information gathered would be invalid as United States (US) Navy nuclear designs have been modified to maintain USA military superiority in this area. Information related to these activities are held with the Nuclear Energy Propulsion Program.

DEVELOPMENT (CRD), MECHANICAL ENGINEERING LABORATORY, SOLID MECHANICS UNIT.

Engineering Graduate

Results from these studies are held within the General Electric (GE) Company and the Department of Energy. Dr. Davis currently has no legal access to this information, nor does he recall any contents. This information is within GE or the US Department of Energy.
