Abstract

Between 1994 and 1999, he worked as an NVH engineer with a major automotive manufacturer in India where the responsibilities included numerical, experimental and classical design aspects. Anand led a team working on quieter gear train design and manufacturing. Between 2002 and 2007 at ISVR, University of Southampton, he worked as a Research Fellow on a project funded by the Leverhulme Trust to research mid and high frequency vibrations, and as a Ford Research Fellow researching IC engine sound radiation. Anand currently teaches introductory and advanced vibration analysis, NVH and selected topics in vehicle crash engineering and numerical simulations. His research interests cover a range of topics in both lower and higher frequency vibrations and acoustics. Anand is currently working on projects in statistical structural dynamics, hybrid modelling approaches applied to analysis of vibration and its effects, dynamics of hard and soft tissues and inverse methods applied to dynamics of mechanical systems.
