Job Purpose

As a Structural Design Analyst, you will support design developmant starting from concept phase until design release, through FEA Simulations, ensuring durability adn structural functionality of componenets and / or systems and providing technical solution based on analysis results for developing an optimal design. The main products working with will include, Skid Steer, Compact Track Loader Tractor Loader Backhoes, Wheel Loaders, Compact Loaders, Motor Graders, Crawlers and Mini Excavators.

Key Responsibilities

• Support during concept phase and final virtual validations of mechanical components and/or assemblies for construction machinery vehicles (all SSL, CTL, WL,TLB...)
• Perform structural (linear, non-linear, dynamic) simulations using FEA tools or calculation spreadsheet
• Prepare the FE models according to DA&S simulation procedures
• Determine structural loads to be used for the FEA validation, by specific analysis tools or by hand calculation
• Provide design proposals to Engineering team to improve or optimize the structural behavior of components/assemblies
• Simulation tasks management through Integrated Validation Plan and CTS system

You will execute simulations to validate components and / or systems using FEA tools and perform the following types of analysis:

• Static FE analysis, linear and non- linear (mainly isotropic materials)
• Modal, Sinusoidal & Random vibration analysis
• Weld fatigue analysis (spot weld, seam weld)
• Parent material strength and durability analysis
• Durability analysis, using specific fatigue codes (NCode)
• Structural optimization
• Strain gauging and accelerometer test data processing
