Structural Analysis Engineer

Job description

Job description: • Candidate needs to be proficient in FE meshing of complex structure using 1D, 2D, & 3D elements. Needs at least 3-5 years of hands-on experience in creating hexahedral, tetrahedral, and combined mesh with transition in ANSYS/NX CAE. Hypermesh meshing experience will be added advantage. • Needs to perform model set-up including but not limited to, material, boundary condition, load, & contact application in ANSYS. Needs to have good understanding and experience in linear & non-linear modeling. • Needs to perform static thermal, structural and modal analyses. Experience in transient thermal, harmonic and buckling analyses will be added advantage. • Needs to perform bolted joint assessment with reduced order and 3D modeling approaches. • Needs to perform fatigue (LCF and HCF) analysis. Work experience in thermo-mechanical fatigue, fracture mechanics and creep analyses will be added advantage. • Needs to validate the results and document the assessment along with results summary and conclusion. • Needs to participate in internal & external reviews and present the assessment to stakeholders. • Needs to perform the task in timely manner with high quality. Required Skills and Experience: • ·Strong mechanical engineering fundamentals especially in solid mechanics, thermodynamics, materials, and theory of failure. Fundamental knowledge of Finite element methods will be added advantage. • ·Graduate/Postgraduate in Mechanical engineering or equivalent with 3 to 6 years of experience in finite element analysis (FEA) using ANSYS (Workbench & APDL). Experience in turbomachinery (Gas & steam turbine) domain will be added advantage, specially on Casings and Rotors. • Good understanding of ANSYS Element library, material models, and APDL scripting. Experience with ACT, and python scripting will be added advantage. • ·Working experience in UG NX modeling. model clean-up, and modification using Spaceclaim or Deisgn Modeller is must. • ·Good experience in free body diagram and hand calculation. • ·Experience in performing strength assessment as per ASME BPV Sec VIII Code. Experience with Euro codes will be added advantage. • ·Should be able to work independently with minimal hand holding. • ·Should be a good team player and take ownership of the task.
