Professional Exposure
Since my graduation I have desired my professional career to be associated with industries in which I can witness the application of computational techniques in vibrations and for that matter I consider myself fortunate enough to be currently working as Assistant Manager with NVH CAE team at Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL), which is the largest car manufacturer in India. The points below would quickly summarize my journey so far
Since my graduation I have desired my professional career to be associated with industries in which I can witness the application of computational techniques in vibrations and for that matter I consider myself fortunate enough to be currently working as Assistant Manager with NVH CAE team at Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL), which is the largest car manufacturer in India. The points below would quickly summarize my journey so far
- I joined Maruti Suzuki India Limited as a Graduate Engineer Trainee (GET 2012) on 1st August 2012. I had undergone a regular training of 4 months in which all the GETs had to visit different business verticals of the organization. In the tenure of 4 months training, 1 month was specified for a mini project under Production Business Vertical (PBV). I worked on a project in which I had to provide the feasibility report advantages and cost involved for the Water Jet Deburring process to replace the conventional method followed at MSIL. I was embellished with a trophy for the best project among my peers.
- From December 2012, I joined the CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) division of the R&D business vertical of MSIL in which I am responsible for simulation of NVH (Noise, vibration and harshness) issues in a passenger car.
- During my on job training program I worked on static stiffness analysis and frequency response analysis. I have worked independently on backdoor vibrations, windshield vibrations, body side muffler hanger vibration.
- Beside the assigned tasks, I also voluntarily took projects for establishing an in-house method for measuring torsional stiffness and bending stiffness of MSIL models. Through studies, in collaboration with the testing team we were also able to develop a method to identify and optimize panels in a BIW (Body-in-White) which are critical for the performance of the vehicle in terms of its torsional stiffness. The results have been accepted for publication in the Symposium on International Automotive Technology 2015 (SIAT 2015). To see the detailed paper click here
- As a part of a study project I have worked on root cause analysis for roadnoise issue encountered in an A-segment model of MSIL. Through rigorous analysis of the problem, brain-storming sessions and collaboration with the testing team, we were able to provide cost effective countermeasure to the problem.
- I am currently working on a project for an upcoming compact SUV which has given me the exposure for utilizing my technical understanding for taking countermeasures to the problems encountered during rough CAE and final CAE stage. I am majorly working on the vibro acoustic issues related to the sound pressure level inside passenger cabin.
- Beside all other mainstream tasks I am a member of the MSIL CFT (Cross Functional Team) and I have been assigned responsibilities for arranging and managing the corporate get together parties.
