Experienced Consultant with a demonstrated history of working in mechanical engineering for the petrochemical, refining, and power industries. Skilled in gas and steam turbines, centrifugal and positive displacement compressors and pumps. Strong professional with a Master of Science (M.S.) focused in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering from University of Virginia and Texas A&M. Completed research at ROMAC and worked in the Turbomachinery lab at A&M. Specialties include rotordynamic modeling, torsional analysis (calculations and field testing using strain gauges), finite element analysis, modal analysis and testing, vibration measurements and analysis, API turbomachinery analysis, API 674 reciprocating pump pulsation analysis and testing, piping vibration and fatigue, centrifugal pump analysis, field dynamic balancing, and performance testing on most machinery. Recent developments have included vibration and performance monitoring using IoT cloud based data gathering with remote data analysis and viewing. Monitoring can be provided for days or months which is particularly helpful for machinery with intermittent vibration issues or failures for unknown reasons. Gathering useful data is the best starting point for diagnosing tricky machinery reliability issues.
