What are the responsibilities and job description for the CAE Durability Engineer position at L&T Technology Services?
Job Description:
FEA modelling
Vehicle durability
Fatigue life prediction
Vibration endurance
Road load data analysis (RLDA)
CAE fatigue correlation (Ncode, Abaqus)
Structural load‑path assessment
Durability test planning / block cycles
Virtual–physical correlation
Tools: Ncode, Nastran, Abaqus, ANSA
Develop detailed FEA models to evaluate vehicle durability, focusing on fatigue life, vibration endurance/fatigue, and load-bearing capacity for complete vehicle systems under diverse operating conditions.
•
Perform road load data analysis to determine component and system damage levels. Use this data to improve structural design and optimize vehicle durability.
•
Correlate load data with CAE fatigue predictions, utilizing tools like Ncode and Abaqus to establish accurate cyclic load and damage predictions, and simulate real-world operating conditions.
•
Optimize complete vehicle durability by assessing structural load paths, material fatigue thresholds, and road load transfer mechanisms for components such as chassis, suspension, body structures, and powertrain mounts.
•
Develop and implement durability test plans, block-cycles, for specific vehicle components and systems, including frame, suspension, body structures, and key load-bearing components, ensuring compliance with industry standards and customer durability requirements.
•
Simulate using FE models the customer usage of closures considering environmental conditions, followed by development and validation of solutions.
•
Use expertise to correlate virtual to physical. Sign-off virtual performance based on simulation models, with clear documentation of results and recommendations.
•
Proficiency in tools, particularly Ncode, Nastran, Abaqus, ANSA.
