Project history
1. DTR Static Stress Signatory: Jan 2023 – Till date
2. Repair Design and Stress Engineer: Oct 2021 – Till date
• Propose and approve feasible repair design solutions for various in-service damages for high lift devices.
• Prepare and approve static stress analysis justification documents to justify the structural credibility of the repair.
• Develop new repair designs following standard SRM and NTM principles.
• Most common damages include – Dents, Surface Corrosion, Penetration, Debonding, Delamination, damage at fastener holes, cracks, gouges etc.
• Liaise with customer support engineer to manage the dossier delivery targets.
• Support Aircraft on Ground (AOG) dossiers to enable return to service of the aircraft in short time.
• Liaise with signatories in Airbus India & Bremen on complex repair designs and justifications.
• Additional role as Work Flow manager – Managing the teams work load on day to day basis.
• Delivery and Quality focal within the team.
• Maintain repair dossier tracking databases to improve &/or benefit from lessons learnt & increase efficiency.
• Driving knowledge management and repair card initiatives to increase productivity of the team.
• Provide Front desk and Week end support on rotational basis for follow the sun business requirements.

Project - Multisite - Concessions & Technical Variances (Aerospace & Defense Business Unit) - GKN Aerospace,
UK.
* Carry out Stress assessment using classical hand calculation methods, FEA and other certified in-house
stress tools to determine the effect of nonconformance or proposed repair on Static strength & Fatigue life of
the component.
* Modifying the FE model to replicate the repair or non-conformance condition and carry out FEA (linear &
non-linear)
* Preparation of stress justification report based on hand calculations or stress tool results to substantiate the
concession condition analysis.
* Liaise with GKN stress approvers to find suitable RF mitigation approaches.
* Liaise with design team to provide stress acceptance to the proposed remedial action.
* Generate automated stress calculation tools to substantiate repeated NC types, as a part of process improvement
ideas.
* Understand evolving customer standards and airworthiness requirements to continuously improve quality of
overall stress assessment.
* Documentation of lessons learnt and on Job Knowledge Transfer to peers.
* Notable contributions:
o Automated excel calculations using VBA to perform analysis for fastener hole oversize nonconformance
in C-series Aileron T.E location.
o Generation of A330 Overwing Panel FEM BDF from scanned PDF copies by using text recognition in
Adobe acrobat.
o Creation of standard analysis & justification template for undersized ply thicknesses non conformance
in Global 7000/8000 Rudder and Elevator using Python.
