Avidh Bavkar is an aerospace engineer and graduate research assistant at Purdue’s Zucrow Labs with 11 years of hands-on experience designing and testing turbine hardware to improve engine performance and reduce aircraft emissions. He has advanced from undergraduate researcher to MS candidate while leading CAD, FEA, and 1-D supersonic turbine design efforts—selecting concepts that integrate rotating detonation combustors with supersonic exhaust. Industry co-ops at Rolls‑Royce gave him test-stand and compressor-aerodynamics experience as well as software exposure, where he built a NoSQL backend and learned DevSecOps and TDD. Based in California, he combines experimental turbomachinery know-how with practical manufacturing and additive‑printing assessments, and has a track record of resolving design conflicts in high-stakes test environments.
