17+ years of engineering stress analysis work experience in Aerospace industry.2+ years of design and engineering analysis experience in Appliance industryStrong experience in Airframe Structures for both Metallic and Composite Structures, static, fatigue and Damage Tolerance Analysis, stability and Finite Element Methods.Involved in design and analysis of various aircraft structural components for both commercial programs (Boeing 787 Dreamliner and Boeing 747), as well as United States government agency programs (ONR and FAA).Carried out sub-component (large scale) pyramid test evaluation for composite fuselage crown panel of Airbus A350 through Finite Element Analysis and classical analysis approaches using industry standard tools such as NASTRAN, PATRAN.Involved in the development of Structural Repair Manual (SRM) for various major metallic and composite structures for 787, and supporting them with static, fatigue and damage tolerance analysis.Developed generalized tensile stress and strain concentration equations for both straight-shank and countersunk holes. These equations are highly accurate and find extensive applications for metallic and composite materials in aerospace and marine industries.Established stress concentration factors and curing stresses to predict failure stresses for unidirectional composite laminates embedded with fiber optic sensors. The stress predictions are highly significant in the Structural Health Monitoring of aircraft structures, and in self-healing of composite structures.
