Dynamic Mechanical Engineer with extensive experience at Capgemini, excelling in finite element analysis and stress evaluation for Airbus aircraft. Proven track record in optimizing workflows and delivering projects ahead of schedule. Strong analytical skills and attention to detail enhance my ability to assess composite structures and ensure structural integrity.
Supported stress analysis for Airbus A320 primary and secondary components through hand calculations and ISAMI software.
Assisted with strength, buckling, crippling, and joint analyses using hand calculations and engineering software.
Conducted metallic composite frame analysis to evaluate structural integrity., Performed metallic stiffened panel analysis to assess performance under load.
Used Excel VBA and Python to streamline hand-calculation workflows.
For GFEM/DFEM, Hypermesh/Hyperview is used.

Stress Analysis activities for primary structural components of Front and AFT Fuselage of AIRBUS a321 XLR aircraft from Pre-Processing to Post-Processing and Hand Calculations for the flight, Ground and RCT Load cases.
Executed pre-processing and post-processing of stress analysis data for structural components, ensuring data accuracy and reliability.
2D Elemental Stress Extraction, 1D and 2D Elemental forces extraction of Airbus a321 Aircraft.
Performed JDV extraction of fasteners from primary structural components of Airbus a321 aircraft using ISAMI to support design validation.
Editing or creating Nastran .bdf files to run launchers to get results for Stress.
Generated post-processing results utilizing Patran and Hyperview to evaluate structural integrity and compliance.
RF calculations for Material Strength, Buckling and Joint Strength for all the loadcases and comparing them.
#Project 1: The project involves carrying out static stress calculations to assess design solutions for a range of tasks, ranging from modifications to manufacturing concessions against the Aircraft Design requirements for Forward (S13-14), Aft fuselage (S16-18) component, Pax Floor and RPB Sections.
Utilized various software tools for stress analysis, including ISAMI, NASTRAN, PATRAN, and CATIA.
Static and Fatigue Stress Assessment of Non-Conformances (Oversize, Flaking/Delamination, Scratch, Folding, Undulation, Hole Position deviation, thickness deviation and wrong countersunk installation) occurred on Section 13-14(Forward fuselage), Section 16-18(Aft fuselage), PAX Floor and RPB Sections.
Acquired DFEM skills to independently execute stress analysis concessions and mitigate low RFs, strengthening analysis capabilities.
Mitigation process & methods for critical locations followed in the checkstress report was analysed (educated/learned) and the same method has been followed for affected locations to save the parts from scrapping. For Example: Undulations on door frame concession are assessed by extracting strains only at affected location using DFEM and re-calculated the RF's and for thickness deviation in crossbeam, buckling check is performed locally at affected location to save the part.
Fatigue assessment for metallic components.
Compiling Stress Justification Reports as per Airbus Standards.
Delivered project results ahead of schedule, enhancing overall project timelines and efficiency.
On time and sometimes before the Forecast Date, delivery of concessions to reduce overall lead time.
Conducted quality checks for stress justification reports (Static & Fatigue).
Trained Six trainees in the team successfully.
Preparation of Stress templates using classical methods and the British Airbus Handbook.
Analysis of airframe structures using a broad range of standard hand and computer methods.
Checking of both metallic and composite concessions. Including skin, stringers, Floor beams, Seat Rails, Galley Rails, Border Rails, Transition rails, PDS, CFRP frames, CDS, BCDS and fixed brackets.
#Project 2: The project involves carrying out static stress calculations for A320/321 XLR & Neo aircraft Metallic Frame Analysis to ensure material strength, stability & joint strength for metallic parts.
ISAMI, NASTRAN, PATRAN, CATIA & Product View.
Responsibilities:
Geometry details extraction from CATIA and Product View.
Structural Element and Structural element Assembly mapping files creation using PATRAN.
Master Fishtails creation to give input to the ISAMI.
Results extraction and RF summary files creation.
Key Contributions:
Independently worked and delivered 11 frames with very minimal support.
Trained trainees in the team successfully.
Key Achievements:
Streamlined MFA process by increasing use of product view, resolving CATIA license issues and reducing steps in the workflow.
Self-trained on DFEM (Nastran, Patran), CATIA, Product View& ISAMI to execute MFA without any support.
Self-trained on DFEM (Nastran, Patran), CATIA, Product View& ISAMI to execute MFA without any support.
