Senior🎓
Top SchoolMandar Kulkarni is an Associate Professor of aerospace engineering with a decade of experience bridging academic research and industry practice in aeroelasticity, vibration control, and structural analysis. He specializes in Nastran/Ansys-based structural modeling, unsteady aerodynamics for flapping-wing MAVs, and closed-loop vibration suppression using piezo-ceramic actuators, supported by strong numerical skills in MATLAB, C/C++, FORTRAN and shell scripting. His career spans roles from loads engineering at Airbus and solver validation at MSC Software to graduate research at Virginia Tech and a faculty trajectory at Embry-Riddle, giving him rare insight into both certification-level loads analysis and cutting-edge research. Known for combining hands-on implementation with theoretical sensitivity analysis, he often translates complex aeroelastic concepts into practical control and simulation tools. Based in Daytona Beach, he brings a pragmatic, tool-focused approach to advancing aircraft structural performance and vibration mitigation.
