•Responsible for full-vehicle as well as component level structural durability and reliability testing and validation of Volvo and Mack branded Class 5 through 8 trucks. •Coordinated with a team of engineers and technicians to validate the designs for various chassis, suspension and cab components. •Supported design and development of test specifications, test instructions and verification plans in collaboration with cross-functional teams spanning design, analysis and manufacturing.•Responsible for designing and setup of custom test rigs, including designing and fabricating test fixtures, custom load transducer design and calibration•Conducted road load data acquisition to support development of Vehicle Models as well as to obtain required signal input for multi-axis shaker or bench test rigs to validate the test object to the required life targets by means of accelerated endurance testing (AET).•Performed data analysis, analyzing raw data both in time and frequency spectrum using tools such as Power Spectral Density plots, Rainflow Histograms, Level cross plots. Also undertook fatigue analysis involving analysis of damage spectra to identify the critical areas using Shock Response Spectrum and Fatigue Damage Spectrum analysis. Use the data analyses to develop test profiles for shaker testing.•Used engineering knowledge and judgement to interpret test results and provide input on appropriate design to meet the specified life targets and provide a detailed technical engineering report.•Equipment utilized: MTS servo-hyrdaulic with MTS Flextest controllers along with Station Manager and RPC Pro for drive signal development for shaker testing. Also used environmental chamber, load frame; eDAQ Somat and Dewesoft-DAQ systems acquiring signal data from sensors such as accelerometers, strain gages, CAN bus, thermocouples, force, pressure and displacement transducers• Utilized ARAMIS high-speed Digital Image Correlation (DIC) for surface strain data collection

•Lead and support the DV and PV automotive durability as well as ultimate strength test activities by applying engineering principles and following established test plans/procedures to test parts/components as per the customer test spec.• Additionally Performed ultimate strength tests using MTS/Instron load frame.•Configuration of data acquisition settings, test schedule, setting up of test equipment, calibration of the hydraulic actuators, ensuring tests are conducted as per test specification, verifying that the tested components meet the acceptance criteria, performance level targets, documenting and performing data analysis.•Using MTS Flextest controller software for component level testing and RPC Pro software for converting Road Load Data to the required data type to be used for system level seating life cycle durability tests on Multi-Axis Simulation Tables, which simulates the component being run through actual road miles. BSRs are also sometimes performed as per customer’s request.•A liaison between lab technicians and management, educating the technicians about the tests and the standards to be followed.•Involves managing multiple projects simultaneously and keeping the customers constantly updated.
