ANSYS or ABAQUS - Stress or FEA

Technical Skills Required: • Strong experience in Finite Element Analysis (FEA) using tools such as Abaqus, Ansys, LS-Dyna. • Proficiency in stress analysis, mechanical behavior prediction, and failure mechanism evaluation. • Familiarity with meshing tools (e.g., Hypermesh, Unigraphics) and data management systems (e.g., Teamcenter). • Understanding of material science, crack propagation, contact mechanics, and thermo-mechanical fatigue. • Ability to communicate complex FEA and stress analysis results to internal and external stakeholders. • Knowledge of aerospace product integrity, liability, and certification frameworks. Qualifications: • Degree in Mechanical, Aerospace, or Structural Engineering (BE/BTech/MSc/MEng). • 1 to 3 years of hands-on experience in FEA, stress analysis, and mechanical integrity in aerospace or related industries. Key Responsibilities: • Perform stress analysis and FEA simulations to validate mechanical integrity of components such as fans, compressors, casings, combustors, turbines, and structures. • Apply FEA tools (e.g., Abaqus, Ansys, LS-Dyna) to predict mechanical behavior under various loading conditions including fatigue (low & high cycle), creep, vibration, thermal loads, and extreme operating scenarios (blade-out, over-speed, burst duct). • Conduct mechanical integrity assessments to ensure product robustness and compliance with design requirements. • Support in-service engine safety through stress analysis and mechanical evaluations. • Lead Design of Experiments (DoE) and mechanical testing to validate stress predictions and improve design reliability. • Collaborate with multi-disciplinary teams to ensure designs meet performance, manufacturability, cost, and weight targets. • Define and execute analysis plans aligned with project milestones, cost, and quality goals. • Recommend design optimizations using Robust Engineering principles and stress analysis insights. • Drive continuous improvement in FEA methods, stress analysis processes, and mechanical integrity tools. • Act as a subject matter expert in stress analysis and FEA, sharing knowledge across engineering functions.
