Summary

: M.Tech (CAD/CAM) from SV NIT, Surat with 3 yrs of professional experience in the domain
of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) with exposure to Hyper Mesh (HM) , ANSYS, and LSDyna.

Experience

: Vaftsy CAE, Pune

August 2012 - Till Date
Sr. FEA Engineer
Handled team of FEA engineers to execute projects .
Supervised Design process to conform it to Analysis requirements

Undertaken Finite Element Analysis in various domains, like Automobile Robotic Fixtures
Analysis, Pressure Vessel Analysis as per ASME code, Composite Analysis, Skids, Frequency
Analysis of Engine Brackets.

Analysis Domains

: Non Linear Analysis (Material + Contact), Geometric Non Linear Buckling Analysis
Composite Analysis, Modal and Harmonic Analysis

Software Proficiencies : ANSYS (15.0) (Linear, Non Linear, Transient, Buckling, Modal), LS-DYNA
HM ( 2D meshing of plastic and Sheet Metal Components, Assign Cards and
Properties) UniGraphics (3D modeling)
Projects

: Analysis of Seating System using LS-DYNA as per RC17

Dynamic analysis of seating systems was done as per European standards

Analysis of Engine Bracket for Material Optimization

Goal was to reduce bracket failure due to resonance, Undertook Modal and Harmonic Analysis
to optimize material.
Analysis of Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger
Analysis was done as per guidelines of ASME Sec VIII Div 2 and ASME UHX, to validate a
design and recommended design changes for code compliance
Analysis of Robotic Grippers
Robot Gripper need to overcome dynamic forces generated by Rapid movement, hence Gripper
analysis was undertaken to validate design for dynamic 'G' forces.
Analysis of Engine Axle
Fatigue analysis was undertaken for Engine Axle under consistent overload conditions.
Analysis of Base Plate
Permanent deflection analysis of base plate using MISO formulation
