    I am an Aerospace Engineer, focusing on the computational aspects of engineering. I have experience in Structural Analysis (including Analytical methods and Finite Element Analysis), Computer Programming (Python, Matlab, C/C++), Engineering Materials, Engineering Design. Over the past 6 months I have worked in developing Python scripts for ANSA (FEA pre-processor) to automate the finite element model creation process. The tools I have developed working for Audi, BMW and Ford help the model creation engineer save several hours per model and reduce variability between models, providing higher quality models and therefore more robust results. Before that, I have worked in Aerospace industry as a Stress engineer. I have developed and validated finite element models for a large aerospace interiors manufacturer. In this role I have developed models in ANSA, run simulations in Hyperworks Optistruct and post-processed the results in Hyperworks Hyperview. In this position, I have also developed a tool that automatically writes the simulation file, saving the team about half an hour of work for every model and help avoid mistakes. My formal education is in Aerospace Engineering. I have graduated with a First Class MEng in Aeronautics and Astronautics from the University of Southampton, in 2019. During my time in university I have focused on Materials and Structures. On structures side, I have experience in both design and analysis/simulation. In Material science, I have good understanding of both material properties and failure modes, including static, fatigue and creep failures. I also have very good knowledge of composite materials. My biggest projects consisted in designing the structure of a small unmanned jet powered aircraft and in developing an innovative method for non-destructive material testing (NDT). The jet powered aircraft was the first of its kind designed and built at my university. The article I have co-authored on the new NDT method is called "Infrared Deflectometry for Slope Deformation Measurements" and has been publiched in Springer's Experimental Mechanics.

    Industrial Designer located on the Gold Coast, Australia! Currently, I am employed full-time as an Industrial Designer with a product development company located on the Gold Coast. I'm very experienced with turning people’s ideas into real products that are currently manufactured in China and sold worldwide. 3D CAD skillset: Over the course of my career, I have used a variety of CAD programs, which include: Alibre Design, Solid Works, Solid Edge, and Autodesk Fusion 360. I offer the following types of 3D design: - Single Part - full Assembly designs And I do this using: - Parametric Modelling (this is modelling with known dimension in mind), and - Surface modelling (this style of modelling creates free-flowing organic shapes) Materials: - Plastic Injection mould - CNC - Metal Fabrication Why do I offer my services on Upwork if I am so experienced? I absolutely love this job and honestly cannot get enough of it! I work full time during the day and during the night I work on personal projects, some of which are manufactured in China and sold through various e-commerce stores. It’s also exciting to earn a small amount of coin on the side when the opportunity arises. Why should you choose me over all of the other experienced designers on Upwork? For the same reason, you choose your friends and significant other... trust. To be honest, it should be a good fit between yourself and the designer so both parties get a good outcome, in the end, I bring to you: - Experience - Honesty - Professional attitude - Willingness to create the best design for your buck! - Fast delivery times To ensure you get the same professional service and delivered in the shortest amount of time possible (as you would get with an established brick and mortar design consultancy) I will be following the same tried and proven processes. The Design Process Overview: 1. Protect your idea / intellectual property (IP): 2. Client Brief: Before starting a design it's important for the designer to gain a clear understanding of what the client’s goal/s might be. For example, it’s important to know the manufacturing process before the design starts to ensure the design is created in a way that is optimized for that process. 3. Concept Development: Ideation is often the most exciting stage in the project! The aim is to generate a large number of ideas that can then filter and cut down into the best, most practical or most innovative ones in order to better the product. 4. 3D CAD Design / Modelling: Once the design has been clearly nutted out in the previous stages the 3D stage should be quick to complete. 5. 3D Design Review: Once the design is complete you'll have the chance to review the design and make changes if needed. 6. Sign off: Once you are all happy with the design you will be provided with a file that can be used to manufacture your design. Thanks for reading I hope we can work together and create some really beautiful stuff!

    Please note: (1) I am currently only accepting hourly projects at the rate of at least 45 USD/hr, preferably those with a potential to turn into a long-term association. (2) I prefer to work with industry professionals over academic researchers, since the former category of clients tend to have well-defined deliverables and reasonable time-frames. However, if an academic problem is sufficiently novel and interesting, I could be persuaded (not only to join, but at a lower rate too)! (3) TLDR; If you're offering an hourly project, please don't ask how many hours will be needed to complete the job. Why? Read on... Although it is sometimes possible to approximately predict the number of hours required to finish a job before an offer is made, this is always at best an informed guess, and I - like most freelancers who've been in the game long enough - always try to err on the conservative side. So my advise is simple - Trust the freelancer to know what she's doing, and IF you have reasons to suspect their competence and/or sincerity, feel free to terminate the project at any time. In reciprocating this trust, I promise to refund the entirety of the first week's earnings if you choose to terminate the project anytime in the first week on the grounds of incompetence, no questions asked - although thankfully it has never come to that for me so far. (4) For scientific computing, I exclusively use Matlab (or GNU Octave, if open source is a project requirement). For Finite Element Analysis, I mostly either write codes from scratch in Matlab (for special purpose finite elements), or (somewhat reluctantly) use Ansys. I *do not* code in C, C++, Python, Scilab etc. I *do not* use Abaqus, NASTRAN etc. (5) I have had very little experience working with a team - my favorite work-setting is me left alone to work tirelessly on a well-defined problem until the desired output is achieved. ** ABOUT ME: PhD in Aerospace Engineering (2018), Indian Institute of Technology, Madras. Author of five research papers in international refereed journals (AIAA Journal, Composite Structures, Applied Mathematical Modeling, International Journal of Structural Stability and Dynamics). No. of citations: 160. H-index: 4. I-10 index: 4. Fluent in English: Scored above 99.9 percentile in the verbal ability sections of both CAT and XAT (national level aptitude tests for post-graduate diploma in business management in India). ** CURRENT SKILL-SETS: I routinely solve nonlinear, coupled partial differential equations that arise in various fields of physics. I have worked on diverse fields of applied mathematics including: - Design of a 66m diameter geodesic dome - Aerodynamics / Fluid-structure interaction - Finite Element Models with material / geometric nonlinearities - Vehicular traffic optimization - Design of turbine shrouds - Rogue wave mechanics (discrete nonlinear Schrodinger equation) - Colorimetry / color science / printer characterization - Design of ultra-efficient spinning toy top - Rotation kinematics - Inverse Kinematics (using Screw Theory) - Time-series forecasting (ARIMA, SARIMA Models) - Numerical optimization using classical gradient-based methods - Numerical optimization with genetic algorithm / particle swarms / pattern search - Elasto-plastic analysis models for metals - Reliability Engineering ** PAST RESEARCH AREAS AND EXPERTISE: Nonlinear Finite Element Method (NFEA), flexible multi-body dynamics, nonlinear dynamical systems, fluid-structure interaction / aeroelasticity, design and analysis of composite structures, numerical (discretized) solution of partial differential equations, numerical time-integration methods, geometrically exact beam/shell theories, wind-turbine aerodynamics. ** SOFTWARE: FEM Software proficiency: ANSYS Mechanical APDL / Workbench Scientific Computing: Matlab, GNU Octave ** PAST WORK EXPERIENCE (ANOTHER LIFETIME): - Research Associate, IISc-ISRO Center of Excellence in Advanced Mechanics of Materials, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore. - Project Associate, National Program on Micro-Aerial Vehicles (NP-MicAV) at NMCAD Lab, Dept. of Aerospace Engineering, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore. - Project Officer, Science and Engineering Research Board (SERB) funded project on velocity-independent friction models, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur.

How to Hire Top Finite Element Analysis Specialists

How to hire finite element analysis specialists

From fluid dynamics to thermal transport to physical stress, many physical phenomena can be simulated with math using a technique called finite element method (FEM). A finite element analysis (FEA) specialist can help you test your products in a simulated environment.

So how do you hire FEA specialists? What follows are some tips for finding top FEA specialists on Upwork.

How to shortlist finite element analysis professionals

As you’re browsing available FEA consultants, it can be helpful to develop a shortlist of the contractors you may want to interview. You can screen profiles on criteria such as:

  • Scientific field. You want an FEA specialist who understands what you are trying to simulate and the problem you are trying to solve.
  • Project experience. Screen candidate profiles for specific skills and experience (e.g., modeling the effects of electromagnetic interference on your PCB design).
  • Feedback. Check reviews from past clients for glowing testimonials or red flags that can tell you what it’s like to work with a particular FEA specialist.

How to write an effective finite element analysis job post

With a clear picture of your ideal FEA specialist in mind, it’s time to write that job post. Although you don’t need a full job description as you would when hiring an employee, aim to provide enough detail for a contractor to know if they’re the right fit for the project.

An effective FEA job post should include:

  • Scope of work: From validating EMC shielding to modeling acoustic performance, list all the deliverables you’ll need.
  • Project length: Your job post should indicate whether this is a smaller or larger project.
  • Background: If you prefer experience with certain industries, sciences, or software, mention this here.
  • Budget: Set a budget and note your preference for hourly rates vs. fixed-price contracts.

FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS SPECIALISTS FAQ

What is finite element analysis?

Differential calculus can be used to describe many physical phenomena. An FEA specialist can use software built with FEM models to simulate the effects of stresses, strains, heat, and other phenomena on different materials and objects, often modeled with CAD (computer-aided design).

Here’s a quick overview of the skills you should look for in FEA consultants:

  • Finite element analysis
  • FEA software such as COMSOL Multiphysics
  • Subject-matter expertise (e.g., fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, electromagnetism)
  • Science or engineering discipline (e.g., mechanical engineer, chemical engineer, physicist)
  • CAD tools such as SolidWorks

Why hire finite element analysis specialists?

The trick to finding top FEA specialists is to identify your needs. Do you need to analyze the stresses and strains in a new ball bearing you wish to add to your product line? Or is your goal to model both fluid flow and heat transfer through a series of heat exchangers? The cost of your project will depend largely on your scope of work and the specific skills needed to bring your project to life.

How much does it cost to hire an FEA specialist?

Rates can vary due to many factors, including expertise and experience, location, and market conditions.

  • An experienced FEA specialist may command higher fees but also work faster, have more specialized areas of expertise, and deliver a higher-quality simulation.
  • A contractor who is still in the process of building a client base may price their FEA more competitively.

Which one is right for you will depend on the specifics of your project.
