FEA Stress Analysis

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.
