hop and was an attempt made to study the engine performance during testing.
STUDENT PROJECT EXPERIENCE:
* Design of 5 Seater Business Aircraft: Individual project designing aircraft ma
jor components using Catia
software and performed Class I calculations to target the present aviation marke
t with longer range and higher cruising speed of its category.

* Project using CFD: Team project constructing a 2-D wave rider using ESI softwa
re to simulate the dynamics
of hypersonic air flow over a wave rider.
* Engineering design of Shock Absorber: Team project involving the design of sho
ck absorber by using Pro/E software and performed Static analysis, Sensitivity a
nalysis, Optimization and 2D technical drawings.
