Summary

I aspire to be an Aerospace Engineer where I seek interest in the field of Propulsion and its mechanics. The prodigious terrain of Gas dynamics of nozzles and inlets, the cyclic analysis of engines, the compounded chemical reactions of Rocket propellants and their Thermodynamics intrusively compels me into its complexity.

Computational analysis is also one of the engrossing areas of my undivided attention. The indispensable role of CFD in the Aerospace domain to analyse the experimental behaviour patterns of any machinery or body is the need of the hour. Deeply pursuing such an area of intellect will aid me to get the desired insight of the subject. The study of Aircraft and Rocket propulsion, massive aircraft engines and turbomachinary, satellite attitude dynamics and control and CFD have always fascinated me and intrigued me to dig deeper into them.
