About

I’m Bhavin Yardi, a Graduate Mechanical Engineering student at Georgia Tech, passionate about solving complex engineering problems with a balance of computational precision and practical application. My work spans the full spectrum—from CAD modeling and CFD simulations to design validation and performance analysis. I’ve contributed to projects in rapid prototyping, thermal management, and product development, with hands-on experience in both experimental testing and high-fidelity multiphase simulations. At Ansys, ExxonMobil, and the MiNDS Lab, I’ve led simulation-driven design studies, supported end-to-end product testing, and collaborated closely with cross-functional teams and clients. My work has focused on design optimization, cost-conscious decision-making, and driving clarity between technical performance and project goals. With a solid foundation in fluid mechanics and heat transfer, practical exposure to additive manufacturing, and an understanding of iterative design processes, I bring both technical depth and project execution skills to engineering challenges.
