Summary
Mr. Bayat is the founding principal of Vibro-Acoustic Consultants with over 20 years of extensive design and management experience.

During his career, Mr. Bayat has worked and directed many projects involving power plant modifications, structural design, dynamic & earthquake analyses, mechanical equipment evaluation to ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code, and building vibration and noise control.

In the areas of vibration and noise control, Mr. Bayat has worked on the microvibration design of low-vibration facilities for many microelectronics clients, R&D facilities, and specialty structural dynamic projects. The design includes finite element modeling & analysis of the structures, dynamic soil-structure interaction analyses, design and specification of vibration isolation systems, and noise specification and design.
