WORK HISTORY
Project Manager Sr Consultant Vibration and Acoustics @Vibro-Acoustic Consultants
San Francisco, CA, US
At Vacc, we solve problems in Acoustics and Vibrations from a spectrum of domains : residential, Healthcare, public transport, agriculture and chip manufacturing.• Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of structures for dynamics & vibration using Femap/NASTRAN.• Provide structural stiffness and design recommendations to engineers at Intel, Micron, NXP, etc.• Prediction & field testing of floor vibration in sensitive areas - Microchip manufacturing, Hospitals.• Generate tools and scripts to augment CAE and automate data processing using Python, MATLAB.• Modeling for static, dynamic and acoustical systems - SEA and Ray tracing.• Independently execute projects such as analysis and mitigation of Noise and Vibration.• Vibration Measurements - Walker response, Modal testing, Stiffness response.• Acoustic Measurements - Sound Intensity/Power level, STC, RT.

ABOUT PRATEEK KULKARNI
Got Vibration and/or Sound issues knocking at your space? Feel free to get in touch!Now:I\'m currently working on solving a spectrum of problems arising from vibration, acoustics and wave propagation. Some days it\'s soil-structure interactions to quantify foundation dynamics while others are filled with design of vibration semiconductor fabs.A typical day involves a strong emphasis on measurements, Finite Element Analyses, correlation and ofcourse, documentation and reporting. It is all centered in structural dynamics and wave propagation.Then:Previously I\'ve faced curveballs dealing with-Strength analysis of rocket propulsion components (Vulcan Centaur) including human space flight (Artemis). Strength analysis of complex optomechanical components for aircraft in the event of shock, high-g aircraft maneuvers, etc.Finite element modeling and analysis of highly complex telescope/Lidar systems for super-fast aircrafts.Analytically developed novel materials for one-way propagation of waves with potential anti-detection stealth system applications.Solving vibration problems with micro-precision chip manufacturing tools.Architectural acoustics and space design for hearing safety.A pictorial snapshot is & pnodecount=6 & cnodecount=2 & fontsize=1If our interests resonate, let\'s connect, exchange thoughts and share experiences.email - p••••••••@gmail.com
