Umesh Shirke

As an MBD Engineer specializing in vehicle dynamics, I bring strong 
fundamentals, analytical proficiency, a passion for learning, 
teamwork, and persistence. My focus is on optimizing multi-body 
dynamics simulations and enhancing vehicle performance within 
collaborative team environment in the automotive industry. 

Vehicle Dynamics engineer at TATA MOTORS Offshore Development Centre for passenger vehicles (experience of 2.9 years).

Projects:

Performing SLA simulations for component level load extraction.
• Tuning of suspension Performance by performing K&C simulations and metrics 
extraction.
• Simulating full vehicle handling steady state and transient state simulations in MSC 
ADAMS with understanding of metrics and their interdependencies.
• Executed 4 POSTER RLDA in MSC ADAMS car using ACAR ride testrig.
• Performed force extraction for components from virtual RLDA for fatigue analysis.
• Worked on parking steering effort estimation from tire pressure and contact patch 
size.
• Conducted Hardpoint optimization (DOE) in MSC ADAMS Insight to achieve K&C 
metric targets such as TCD, Ackermann percentage, and Parking effort.
• Built 16 DOF model in MSC ADAMS view for damper tunning to achieve vehicle ride 
targets.
• Performed steering wobble, modal mapping, brake pull and torque steer simulations 
in MSC ADAMS Car.
• MSC ADAMS macro creation for metric extraction and automation.
• Experience in Model building in ADAMS car template builder and MSC ADAMS
View.
• Built a two-track vehicle model in Python to execute sensitivity analysis of 
suspension parameters in steady-state and transient handling.
• Offered solutions to suspension designers to enhance vehicle handling performance 
by adjusting suspension parameters.
• Optimized understeer budgeting process by improving the measurement of 
suspension characteristics, including compliance steer, roll steer, and aligning 
moment steer.
• Optimized process of Dimensional Variation Analysis for chassis brackets in 
ADAMS Car to accurately monitor and control variations in suspension 
characteristics, while preserving the dimensions of machine-manufactured parts.
• Developed an Excel-based tool to adjust spring stiffness and anti-roll bar (ARB) 
diameters to optimize ride frequencies and roll gradient of the vehicle
