About
FEA & Structural Integrity Engineer with 4 years of distinguished experience in specializing structural validation, failure analysis, and qualification of flight-critical rocket propulsion systems and liquid propellant tankages. Combine strong first-principles knowledge of solid mechanics with advanced computational methods to ensure structural reliability under extreme aerospace environments.
Experience
FEA Engineer - Hydro Pneumatic Engineers (Hyd) Pvt. Ltd. - ISRO, LPSC, Trivandrum
(2022-12)
- Conducted advanced static, thermo-structural, modal, and eigenvalue buckling simulations for propulsion tankages and structures.
- Developed multi-scale (global-to-local) finite element models to evaluate localized stress concentrations, strain distribution, and critical bolt loads.
- Correlated pre-test predictive models with post-test experimental data to validate structural integrity and refine FEA accuracy.
- Engineered alternative design solutions and structural modifications for components failing to meet safety margins, successfully restoring structural integrity.
- Evaluated manufacturing non-conformances (weld mismatches, porosity, GBPM, and weld collapses) to determine structural acceptability for flight hardware.
- Automated simulation preprocessing and post-processing workflows using Python and APDL scripting, accelerating analysis turnaround times.
Production coordinator - Dent Care Dental Lab. - Muvattupuzha, Kerala
(2021-10 - 2022-04)
- Workflow Tracking: Managed production scheduling for thousands of precision components via ERP, securing a 95% on-time delivery rate.
- CAD/CAM Optimization: Balance workloads across digital CAD/CAM design, 3D printing, and milling teams to maximize plant efficiency.
