SKILLS SUMMARY: An Enthusiastic, dedicated and a resourceful engineer with 5 years experience in Product development. Self-motivated and aspiring attitude to provide innovative and cost effective solutions. Ability to upgrade quickly and deploy emerging technologies. Flexible and Adaptable team member with risk taking attitude. RESEARCH EXPERIENCE: INDIAN SPACE RESEARCH ORGANIZATION Area of Research: Vibration (Periodic & Harmonic) Design Optimization Applied Mechanics & Kinematics Dec 2006 - Jun 2007 Finite Element Method (FEA & Structural - Dynamic Analysis) The project is aimed to reduce the vibrations in the structure of Inertial Navigation Sensor Assembly. This is done to reduce the data error of other optical components mounted on the unit and to get perfect data with compact design. Implemented a new Design and methodology for vibration control of inertial sensor Assembly Unit. An Alternate Counteracting Device is designed by considering the Optimized parameters, Mass reduction, Compactness and Manufacturability Developed 3D Solid Model of the system by using Pro Engineer. Optimization of the Counter mass structure is done by using Pro-Mechanica. Then the Structure is analyzed in different modes of Frequencies. Time Harmonic Analysis is carried out to get the amplitude of vibration. It is compared with the previous stage. The Results were validated by comparing the experimental results.
