Summary of other works involved:
Simultaneous slosh and vibration test on the Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) auxiliary fuel drop tank was carried at Fatigue testing laboratory along with the ASTaR Lab. In this context, dynamic characterization of test fixture and with 2/3
rd
water filled tank LCA auxiliary fuel tank are carried out. The modal frequencies are identified using sweep sine test, before and after the simultaneous slosh and vibration test. The responses measured during the sweep sine test are processed and modal frequencies are identified using the FFT. The FFT and data processing is done using Matlab software.
Involved in the experimental investigation of cyclic test of steel frame with and without Buckling restrained braces. Experimental data obtained during the cyclic testing of steel frame with and without Buckling Restrained Braces are processed and inference plots are made.
Involved in the experimental investigation of Godrej storage racks.
Involved in the various activities of course “Advanced Course on Seismic Damage Mitigation of Structures” conducted in 21-23 March 2018 and 4-6 Dec 2019 by ASTaR lab. Have involved in documentation of course material.
