o Structural Analysis & MRB Engineer 02.12.2013 – Cont.

BOEING 737 MAX - 787 Projects – Full Engineering MRB Authority 20.04.2018 – Cont. I have had Full Engineering MRB authority and signature delegation on BOEING 737 MAX Elevator and Tabs, BOEING 787 Elevator, Cargo Barrier, and Horizontal Leading Edge projects since 20.04.2018. For both metal and composite parts, I am providing dispositions for nonconforming materials considering the actual part, assembly, or aircraft meets or exceeds certification and design requirements. I am capable of performing basic static and fatigue analysis of the repairs of the damaged area by using reverse engineering methods and providing dispositions considering design data, load distribution, basic fatigue and damage tolerance analysis, production methods, material and processes, quality requirements and basic cost analysis. I am creating consultations to Boeing Design/Analysis Engineers for some dispositions that requires detailed analysis, or design concurrence or higher installation affected problems.

BOEING 787 Elevator, Cargo Barrier & Leading Edge Projects 30.01.2017 – 20.04.2018. I prepared recommended dispositions to Boeing Engineers for all of the discrepancies occurred during manufacturing of BOEING 787 Elevator, Cargo Barrier, and Horizontal Leading Edge parts in Turkish Aerospace. For both metal and composite parts, I was giving repair, use as is, rework, or scrap decisions in cooperation with production and quality departments and recommend the solution to BOEING Authorized MRB Engineers.

Airbus A400M Aileron & Spoiler Project 20.07.2015 – 30.01.2017 I worked on fatigue and damage tolerance analysis of hinge fittings and actuator fittings of A400M Spoilers including both attachment and radius areas using Airbus ISSY, MSC Patran, and Excel spreadsheets. Much iteration is conducted with different materials and different geometries to satisfy required fatigue lives.

Airbus A400M FCF&MFRT Project 23.02.2015 – 20.07.2015 I was assigned to make fatigue stress assessment of dispositions provided by MRB engineers on front centre fuselage and rear fuselage of Airbus A400M. I analysed all disposition recommendations from fatigue stress point of view using Airbus SAFE software joint model. I also prepared “Modification Report of Low Fatigue Life Areas on Guide Rail Run-Outs, Frames and Frame Couplings of A400M Rear Fuselage” after analysing these parts using SAFE joint model.

Airbus A350XWB-1000 Aileron Project 24.03.2014 – 23.02.2015 I was involved in the fatigue and damage tolerance analyses of Airbus A350XWB-1000 metallic front spar, hinge fittings, and actuator fittings using Airbus Stress Tool – ISAMI. I also conducted stiffened panel analysis. Additionally, I prepared “Detailed Finite Element Model Validation Report of A350XWB-1000 Inner and Outer Ailerons for C-Maturity”.

Alenia ATR72-600 A/C Modification Project 02.12.2013 – 24.03.2014 I helped providing recommended dispositions for Alenia ATR72-600 A/C Modification Project. I obtained information about the repair applications such as bushings, repair angles, doublers, fillers, flush plugs, and oversized fasteners.

• Turkish Aerospace Academy 01.07.2019 – Cont.

o Lecturer 01.07.2019 – Cont.

I am giving a lecture named Repair Design, Aircraft Metallic Parts for all design and analysis engineers of the company, and a lecture named MRB Engineering Requirements for Nonconformance Documents for quality personnel and nonconformance document initiators. Part-Time Job Experiences/Internships
