About

I work on high performance software with a focus on computational sciences. At Align, I work on geometric algorithms for our orthodontic CAD software. In my previous role, I led the development of GE's Wind Turbine Conceptual Design Toolchain, based on Python and C++, which included - B-spline based geometry manipulation with continuity guarantees for blade aero design. Written in Python, GUI with interactive control points. - Blade structural optimization for blade structural design. Written in C++, optimizes laminate plan for a blade based on given loads. - Loads-structure convergence iterations. Written in Python which combines tools spread across 3 different teams into a single software. - Mesh manipulation library for non-manifold geometries. Written in C++. - In-house developed steady state aeroelastic library for wind turbine blades. Written in Python. M. Tech in Aerospace Engineering from IISc, Bengaluru: Here I worked on simulating fluid-structure-thermal interactions on hypersonic flight vehicles at the Aeroservoelasticity Lab in the Aerospace Engineering department. B.E. in Mechanical Engineering and M.Sc. in Physics from BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus: Here I focused on Computational Fluid Dynamics with academic projects in aerodynamics and fluid-structure interactions. As the Structural Subsystem Head, I led BITS Pilani’s UAV team, AeroBITS, to participate in the 2017 AUVSI-SUAS competition. From my time at BITS, I have developed a love for building RC planes. I also enjoy endurance running and hope to eventually start training for a marathon.
