Study not for AeSI exams

The beauty about AeSI is that once you complete it and you are in the
industry, you will know how you are far ahead of anyone in your office
in terms of aeronautical knowledge!!

From gas turbine essentials to principles of flights, you will be
second to none.

Be it India or anywhere else, what you truly learnt in aesi will
surely be a big part of your success in your career.

So don't just study for the exams, study and learn to be a better
engineer, study to get the understanding, study to apply the basic
concepts and study to win the war!!!!

Statistics and mathematics

Statistics and mathematics are two of the discipline of science. Going
by the way I am seeing things here at my current place of work these
are the two fields that one has take command and ride on.

Probalistic design, and statistical analysis are the the fields that
will boom in aerospace.

So as you go through your studies, take special interst in this tpics
they are the one you might be working on.

Prospect After AeSI Graduation!

Good Morning Gents,   I request all senior AeSI Members who occupying the positions within AeSI and the various branches throughout the country to share the responsibility for Placement for AeSI Graduates after course completion and there Post Graduation programmes in India and outside.There are number of issues you all need to sort out:   1) AeSI is still not listed on Ministry of HRD website .All initiative by AeSI HQ has not been fruitful in this regard.   2)AeSI Engineers should not be restricted to 60% for getting into future employment.There are numbers of AeSI Engineers who were placed with Quest ,Wipro and other places without 60% crietria on my personal request.I see no reason why other AeSI Members who are running the official position in AeSI cannot do same in case they are genuinely interested about welfare of AeSI Graduates.   3)It has been time that AeSI HQ takes up the matter that all Universities under AICTE cannot discriminate AeSI Engineers in there admission policy of Master's programme. There should not be 60% criertia for PG admission as University/Colleges exams are not following the same assesment criteria like in AeSI program.So there is no question of equivalency of Grades.   4)Its time Members present in India show some initiative to present new generation of AeSI students with Quality Education.The new syllabus is rigorous and needs good training center for student to complete in decent time.AeSI was planning to open its training center in mid 90s and I am not sure what happened to the plan.   I would be highly obliged if all of you show bit of interest in development of AeSI Engineers. Its not always possible for me in my official capacity  at NASA Goddard Space Center to contact with Indian concern and Institutions due to time difference and busy schedule. If you guys are holding responsible position in AeSI,please ensure that you are doing justice to same.   All of you guys help in this regard would be very much appreciated.     Best regards   Bishnujee Singh Chartered Engineer (EC-UK) Chartered Scientist (SC-UK) Associate Fellow CASI (Canada) Fellow RAS(UK),MInstPhys MSc(UK),BAe,MRAeS(UK),MAeSI(India), Sr.MAIAA(USA),MAOPA(Pilot) HEAD OF FLIGHT SCIENCE Flight Science Manager NASA GODDARD SPACE CENTER,VA 10362 Jerusalem Road Temperanceville,VA,23442,USA Tel:001-757-824-0634 Cell:001-425-233-0440 Fax:001-646-219-1010 Fax:001-702-99lll

4 function key excel shortcuts that help me in my work

Whatever you use, be it catia, solidworks, UG, NASTRAN,ANSYS ,PATRAN, HYPERMESH or any other CAE software, excel is one of the software tool that always be the one that will be come to you. Maybe for preparing some graphs or presenting the data from the analysis. For my work excel is tool that i use everyday ion my office. so today i would like to share some of 4 function key shortcuts of excel that has made my life easy.

F2 the second most used key for me. If you want to edit a cell value. This is the key to use. Instead of double clicking F2 comes handy to edit those long formulae's.

F7  spell checker. My spellings are bad, even in spread sheet I manage to get many spelling mistakes, so one click on F7 I the best that I can get.

F4 is the most versatile function key of excel. I use it the most. It repeats your last action. So this can be used for many task. Since there no fix action. so its programmable to use any action. If I have to delete a row. repeatedly. I select the row and then right click on it and choose delete. after than any row I want to delete I just choose that row and press F4. similarly if I have to clear lot of stuff from one sheet. I use the F4 key instead of right click and choosing clear contents multiple times.

F11. Most of the time my work in excel involves making graphs of the data and f11 comes to the rescue. just select the data and press F11. You will have the default graph plotted. Since I want a particular type of graph so I always make a default graph and use it every time I need a graph.

Do you have any shortcut keys then please do share it with me.

Learn fortran

In my last couple of posts i have talked about avionics and how knowledge of is essential for avionics graduate. That's true but what is one other language that i'll recommend to all aesi graduates?

As you might have guessed it. Its fortran. Its the language of enginnering! And specially so for aeronautical! Most of the code that's available and is in use is written in fortran. Most of the stuff you will work on will have fortran component in it. If i can say so, fortran is the blood of aerospace industry.

So if you have a chance to learn a language, apart from c, learn fortran. Yes people will say its an old language, yes its old but its the only one that is working in many of the aero softwares!

5 firms all avionics stream graduates should keep an eye on!

As i have already remarked in my previous posts, if someone to ask me which stream has good potential, then i see avionics as the leader right now.

Most of the job openings coming to my mail box are related to avionics, then most of the opportunity i see talked about in office are from this domain.

So when avionics is getting this spicer, i thought of listing 5 companies that avionics graduates should keep in their radar!

Honeywell india
Goodrich services india
Airbus india
Quest global
HCL india

well this are the companies that are having a part in indian avionics industry. I have just scratched the surface, i know you will add more names to this list. So feel free and fill in the names in comments.

Wifi and this blog

I have posted entries from this blog from many sources. In the
beginibgg it was cyber cages of chennai, then came the reliance r
world facility, then I posted from mobile phone then gradated to a PC
again. After this leveled up to a laptop and now I have shifted to my
iPod touch. I am uising it as my primary writing device. Withe the
onbuilt wifi capabilities I am thinking of by passing my limited
Internet connection.

I am out of India now so for a week or two I will adjusting the posts
and they won't be as ordered and regular.

Have you found Free magazines?

A few posts back i posted about how to use this blog effectively. I don't know about i fired up my browser and tried few combinations to see what i'll get from the blog and this try brought me couple of blog entries that i did regarding free aerospace magazine on net. It also landed me to the post that points to an online ansys magazine.

Want to see the links?

Here it is http://my-aesi.blogspot.com/search?q=magazine+free

my experiments showed me this links once again. What have you found? Do try!

Next week

Next week my circumstances, my environment will have a drastic makeover. I don't know if i'll have any internet connection, so this is just a warning post to let you know that in the next week i'll have some hard time to post. I'll definely write the post offline and post them when i get a chance. Ok then till that time you enjoy the ipl!

Well this new circumstance and situation will be a new experience for me and i hope i'll have some new fresh respective to share with you.

Keeping reminders

When i was studying for aesi, making time tables was easy, setting time for study was easy, putting in the time also came along. But many a times i missed the goals i set, the tasks i assigned, I felt bad about it latter but it was always that some immediate new thing of some different nature that distracted me. Be it a new movie release or a juicy controversy that emerged from gie.

After a long struggle i discovered that many a times i simply failed to do my tasks because i forgot about them, i never realised i had to do it at that time. The main reason for me was that the constant new distractions overflowed on my task list.

So what's the takeaway message?

Keep reminders. Reminders of your goal. Yes it a simple step but makes a lot of difference if implemented. For my present goal of writing one blog post everyday, i have set my own reminders. Every time i stare at this mobile from which i am writing this post, i see the calendar to do item. Further more, after brushing this is the first thing i do. This two simple techniques has kept me on track of this goal. You can apply this to your own goals.

If your goal is to master catia or nastran, then resolved to practise it first thing that you do when you boot up your system. If studying a subject is your goal, then every morning set 30 mins to study that subject. Make it the first thing that you do in your day.

So you got the idea. So now get going and implement.
