Before joining the Cockrell School of Engineering in Fall 2008, Dr. Sirohi worked at Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation, where he was a Staff Engineer in the Advanced Concepts group. At Sikorsky, he was involved with the conceptual design of next-generation vertical take-off aircraft, as well as the performance enhancement of existing rotorcraft using advanced technologies. He was the Technical Lead for developing analytical design tools. At UT Austin, Dr. Sirohi works on projects related to smart material sensors, experimental aerodynamics and structural dynamics, energy harvesting and rotary-wing aeroelasticity. He is the Principal Investigator of the Vertical Lift Research Center of Excellence funded by U. S. Army, Navy and NASA (2011-2016 and 2016-2021).
