Responsibilities
Perform detailed stress analysis of aerospace structures and components using classical hand calculations and advanced finite element methods (FEM), mostly of CFRP structures. Identify failure scenarios and collaborate with design engineers to review and optimize structural designs. Define applicable load cases, addressing the impact of thermal, quasi-static loads (arising from random vibrations) etc. Analise and provide possible solutions to manufacturing non-conformities. Develop test plans and support physical testing of components to verify sizing assumptions and qualify hardware. Prepare comprehensive stress analysis reports and documentation for internal/external use. Improve our standards and toolchain for structural verification.
Seniority
