Pawan Rakesh Thakor

Worked as an Aerospace Composite Structural Design Engineer at the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), specializing in classical hand analysis and finite element analysis for metallic and composite structures. My primary interest lies in scientific computing and optimization for structural design, but I am always eager to explore new areas that blend mechanics, computation, and innovation. I’m passionate about working on challenging engineering problems and collaborating with interdisciplinary teams.

Coursework includes the fundamentals of computational analysis, modeling, numerical methods, discretization techniques, and scientific programming.

Highlights / Skills Gained • Solid foundation in aerospace systems, structures, propulsion, aerodynamics, and flight mechanics • Computational and experimental methods for aerospace analysis and design • Exposure to space-related research projects and collaborative work with ISRO • Practical hands-on experience through laboratory courses and simulation-based studies Graduated top 5% of my class and got selected to work for the VSSC, Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO).
