Durability Loads Analysis Multi-body Dynamics CAE Engineer

The Durability Loads Analysis Engineer performs the calculation of vehicle suspension component loads, frame/body attachment loads and engine mounts loads using various tools.

Responsibilities include, but not limited to:

• Building/modifying ADAMS (multi-body dynamics) models
  
• Review engineering data (geometry, bushing rates, etc.)
  
• Review road load data (time history data)
  
• Run durability models
  
• Output component loads, attachment loads, powertrain mount loads, etc.
  
• Post-processing data (statistics-max/min values, equivalent damage, loads comparisons, histograms)
  
• Technical report writing
  
• Upload data into project database

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering or related degree field
• Minimum of 1 year of work experience in the field of virtual road loads analysis
• Involvement in formula SAE challenge
• Good understanding of vehicle architecture, suspension types and powertrain subsystems
• Experience in modeling integrating control modules (traction, ABS) into full vehicle virtual models.
• Experience in vehicle dynamics control modules
• Understanding of ADAMS flex-bodies and flex-body generation process
• Demonstrated ability to review and interpret real world and simulation data to ensure model fidelity
• Ability to communicate the results and understanding to an engineering audience

Preferred Qualifications:

• Master of Science degree in Engineering
