(2 Questions)

  • Q1. What are your strengths
  • Q2. How do gas turbine engines work
  • Ans. 

    Gas turbine engines work by compressing air, mixing it with fuel, igniting the mixture, and using the hot exhaust gases to spin a turbine.

    • Air is drawn into the engine and compressed by a compressor

    • Fuel is injected and mixed with the compressed air

    • The mixture is ignited, causing a rapid expansion of gases

    • The hot exhaust gases are used to spin a turbine, which drives the compressor and generates thrust

I applied via Recruitment Consulltant and was interviewed in Feb 2024. There was 1 interview round.

Round 1 - Technical 

(5 Questions)

  • Q1. Why the brittle material fail as spiral fracture surface under torsion
  • Ans. 

    Brittle materials fail as spiral fracture surface under torsion due to their inability to deform plastically.

    • Brittle materials lack ductility and are unable to deform plastically under stress

    • Under torsion, the material experiences shear stress which leads to the formation of spiral fracture surfaces

    • The lack of plastic deformation causes the material to fail catastrophically along these spiral paths

    • Examples of brittle m...

  • Q2. What is entropy
  • Ans. 

    Entropy is a measure of disorder or randomness in a system.

    • Entropy is a thermodynamic property that quantifies the amount of energy in a physical system that is not available to do work.

    • It is a measure of the number of possible arrangements of particles in a system.

    • Entropy tends to increase in isolated systems over time, leading to a state of maximum disorder or equilibrium.

    • An example of entropy is the melting of ice -...

  • Q3. How to find natural frequency practically
  • Ans. 

    Natural frequency can be found practically by conducting modal analysis or using specialized equipment like accelerometers.

    • Conduct modal analysis by applying a force or impulse to the structure and measuring the resulting vibrations.

    • Use specialized equipment like accelerometers to measure the vibrations of the structure.

    • Calculate the natural frequency using the formula: f = 1 / (2π√(k/m)), where f is the natural freque...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q4. What is Fast Fourier transform
  • Ans. 

    Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is an algorithm used to compute the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) of a sequence or signal.

    • FFT is used to analyze the frequency content of a signal by decomposing it into its constituent frequencies.

    • It is commonly used in signal processing, image processing, audio analysis, and many other fields.

    • FFT algorithms are much faster than the naive DFT computation, making it practical for real-ti...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q5. How FFT is different from DFT
  • Ans. 

    FFT is a faster algorithm for calculating DFT

    • FFT is faster than DFT in terms of computation time

    • FFT uses a divide-and-conquer approach to reduce the number of operations

    • DFT computes all frequencies while FFT only computes the frequencies of interest

    • FFT is commonly used in signal processing applications

I applied via Naukri.com and was interviewed in Mar 2024. There was 1 interview round.

Round 1 - Technical 

(2 Questions)

  • Q1. What is the sheet metal process
  • Ans. 

    Sheet metal process involves cutting, bending, and assembling metal sheets to create various products.

    • Cutting: Using tools like shears, lasers, or plasma cutters to cut the metal sheets into desired shapes

    • Bending: Utilizing press brakes to bend the metal sheets at specific angles

    • Assembling: Joining the bent and cut metal sheets together using techniques like welding or fasteners

    • Finishing: Applying coatings or finishes ...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. Types of Tolerances and explanation
  • Ans. 

    Types of tolerances include bilateral, unilateral, limit, and fit tolerances.

    • Bilateral tolerance: Allows for variation in both directions from the nominal dimension.

    • Unilateral tolerance: Allows for variation in only one direction from the nominal dimension.

    • Limit tolerance: Specifies the maximum and minimum acceptable limits for a dimension.

    • Fit tolerance: Determines the acceptable range of tightness or looseness between

Round 1 - Technical 

(2 Questions)

  • Q1. Define the factor of safety?
  • Ans. 

    Factor of safety is a design parameter that accounts for uncertainties in material properties and loading conditions.

    • Factor of safety is the ratio of the maximum stress a material can withstand to the maximum stress it is subjected to in a given application.

    • It ensures that the structure or component will not fail under normal operating conditions.

    • Higher factor of safety values indicate a more conservative design approa...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. What is tolerance?
  • Ans. 

    Tolerance refers to the allowable variation in dimensions or properties of a part or product.

    • Tolerance is important in engineering to ensure proper fit and function of components.

    • It is typically specified as a range of acceptable values, such as +/- 0.1mm.

    • Tolerance can be applied to dimensions, material properties, surface finish, etc.

    • For example, a hole may have a tolerance of +/- 0.05mm to allow for proper alignment
