Experience

  • MSC Software
    • Newport Beach, California
    • Senior Project Manager and Senior Software Developer
      • 1993 - Present
      • Newport Beach, California

      My responsibilities include senior architect for analysis data results post processing and its visualization, and management of both United States and China software design and development teams.

    • Consulting Engineer
      • May 2006 - Jun 2009

      Using Fluent’s preprocessor, Gambit, I was tasked to create several simulation models of a large troop transport aircraft with varying degree of detail. After meshing these models with Gambit and TGrid I used Fluent to develop the external flow for the aircraft’s different flight modes. These modes included normal flight at various altitudes and attitudes, and aircraft in hover landing configuration. Analysis of flow past the moving propellers was also studied.

    • Consulting Engineer
      • Jun 1999 - Oct 1999

      Created a finite element simulation model of an industrial UTRC-Carrier air conditioning compressor and performed a fluid structural analysis with the model to predict stress and strains within the compressor’s reed valve train. The simulation model included moving piston and valve train. The simulation was performed with Adina Inc.software.

    • Consulting Engineer
      • Feb 1998 - Jun 1999

      Preliminary design of needle free syringes for injection of medication. Fluent computational fluid dynamics software was used to optimize the syringe nozzle design and delivery pressure profile to allow accurate targeting of the medication to the different tissue layers.

    • Aircraft Mechanic
      • 1981 - 1983

      Overhauled and tested aircraft engines for corporate and general aviation aircraft. Overhauled and tested aircraft accessory components for corporate and general aviation aircraft.

    • Shop Foreman and Aircraft Mechanic
      • 1975 - 1981
