Anand Thite

Biography

I graduated in 1993 with MTech (Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, India) in mechanical engineering and later in 2003 with a PhD in Sound and Vibration (Institute of Sound and Vibration Research, University of Southampton). Between 1994 and 1999, I worked as an NVH engineer with a major automotive manufacturer in India where the responsibilities included numerical, experimental and classical design aspects. Between 2002 and 2007 at ISVR, University of Southampton, I 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. In 2007 I joined Oxford Brookes University, in academic role, in the department of mechanical engineering and mathematical sciences. I teach introductory and advanced vibration analysis, NVH and a few topics in vehicle crash engineering and numerical simulations. My research interests cover a range of topics in both lower and higher frequency vibrations and acoustics
