• Conducted thermo-mechanical and structural simulations to support design optimization, material selection, and validation from concept to production
• Proficient in simplifying complex CAD geometries for efficient structural and thermal simulation analyses
• In-depth knowledge of mechanical design, conductive and convective heat transfer, and fluid flow mechanics
• Collaborate with designer, manufacturing, and testing teams to correlate FEA results with physical testing
• Experience with DOE (Design of Experiments) and optimization techniques
• Directing cross-functional teams to address and resolve intricate design and manufacturing issues.
• Analyzing complex simulation results to identify areas for improvement and driving design or process changes.
• Create simulation models to achieve optimal accuracy for our products and customers.
• Validate concept designs using simulation, test and correlation to customer performance requirements.
• Deploy FEA Techniques - implicit and explicit approach, using Software tools like Ansys Work Bench, LSDyna, Hypermesh, Simufact, Digimat etc...
• Translate actual challenge to Finite Element Analysis (FEA) model, interpret analysis results and select best solution which includes linear & non-linear analysis under different physics.
• Align with Thermal COE to monitor and evaluate simulation software capabilities including industry trends.
• Collaborate with design & validation teams to enhance the design optimization.
• Understanding the influence/impact activities on financial decision.
