University of Texas at Arlington, Texas, United States of America August 2018- Present Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering CGPA - 3.25 Saveetha Engineering College, Kancheepuram, Tamil Nadu, India. June-2013- May 2017 Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Aerospace Vehicle Design (AVD) Lab at UT Arlington September 2018 - Present. Graduate Research Assistant Work Supervisor- Dr. Bernd Chudoba

● Analyzing Flying Qualities of different high speed supersonic and hypersonic commercial aircraft and spacecplane configurations from wind tunnel and flight tests to visualize the Stability and control trends for the chosen configurations.

● Developing design guidelines based on the S&C trends for generating product design cycle database tool.

● Processing the available data and developing regression curves based on the data to estimate the trends for aircraft failure conditions in a generic hypersonic vehicle domain

● The generated tool set will assist in Mission planning procedure for future hypersonic aircrafts and spaceplanes.

● Forecasting data to predict the aircraft behavior, thereby assisting in decision making process. IMI VEngineering Pvt Ltd, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. June 2017 – November 2017. Junior Engineer, Department of Mechanical Engineering.

● Conducted a detailed study of Boiler operations and Pipeline design.

● Performed the calculations for Boiler Performance which included Heat & Mass Transfer Calculations for Boilers and calculations for Power Plant component sizing.

● Created a Visual Basic Program for Boiler Performance Calculations under the guidance of the company’s superiors, in-order to reduce the time required for performing complex thermal calculations.

Hindustan Aeronautics Limited, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India. January 2017– March 2017 Worked as Mechanical Engineering Intern.

● Detailed Study of the process involved in setting up an assembly line for production of fighter aircrafts

● Analyzed the shortcomings faced by the aircraft by working on the design-aspects of the aircraft.

● Performed a design and analysis project to address one of the aircraft’s performance issues and provided a feasible solution for the problem. ACADEMIC PROJECT

Development of Hypersonic Vehicle Configuration Compendium September 2018- Present Objective: Development of holistic data compendium of flight-proven hypersonic vehicle.

• Analyzing hours of wind tunnel data and several flight tests data for different hypersonic vehicles.

• Generating database which can act as a networking channel for the current engineers to overcome the gridlock faced in designing prospective hypersonic vehicles.

• Developing coagulation of different datasets generated from distinctive vehicular performances which are formulated into a dashboard. Lightweight Aircraft Seats February 2017 – May 2017. Objective: Design, analysis and fabrication of a lightweight aircraft economy class seats.

● Modeled the seat in Autodesk Inventor and used ABAQUS software to analyze the stresses in the seat and validated the variation in specific fuel consumption of the aircraft by implementing the weight and balance sheet from Pilot Operating Handbook (POH)

● This project reduces the weight of individual aircraft seats which thereby reduces the comprehensive amount of fuel consumption required. Improving the sustained turn rate of Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) Tejas. January 2017 – March 2017. Objective: Developing of a Leading-edge device known as (LEVCON) to augment the lift of a fighter aircraft.

● Performing mathematical calculation to determine the effect of the Leading-Edge extension on Sustained Turn Rate (STR) of the aircraft.

● Modelling of a Delta wing in Autodesk Inventor and analyzing the design by ANSYS Fluent, to validate the improvised L/D ratio by the Leading-edge device which thereby improves the STR of the aircraft.
