Description

Job Description:
  • The team supports New Product Introduction (NPI) and Current Product Improvement (CPI) activities for aftertreatment and cooling components and systems.
  • The analyses the team performs can be very challenging, involving complex phenomena such as transient thermal effects, engine and machine vibration and forced response, material non-linearities, exotic materials and complex geometries.
Responsibilities:
  • Perform structural system analysis and simulation for structural integrity, response, performance, and service life of aftertreatment and/or cooling components and systems
  • Provide product design and development teams with timely conclusions and best actionable recommendations and solutions
  • Work to continuously improve the accuracy of analysis processes and tools
SKILLS:

REQUIRED:
  • MS in Mechanical Engineering or Related Engineering Field
  • At least 5 years industrial experience in structural analysis, preferably with a focus on thermal mechanical analysis and/or dynamic analysis
  • Understanding of dynamics, heat transfer, material properties and fatigue
  • Experience with structural simulations for static, vibration, transient dynamic, heat transfer, boundary and material nonlinear, fracture and fatigue life, bolted joint, and welded structures
  • Proficient with ABAQUS and Hypermesh
DESIRED:
  • PhD degree in Mechanical Engineering or Related Engineering Field
  • Eight years industrial experience in structural analysis
  • Experience with FE-Safe and Nastran
  • Experience in machine dynamic simulation
  • Experiences in non-metallic structural simulation, user defined material behavior modelling, and component interaction modelling
  • Experiences in machine and structural design and validation
  • Pro/E skills sufficient for FE model preparation
