Job Overview:
Under general direction from structural analysis group manager, performs engineering assignments requiring a wide application of advanced principles, theories and concepts in the field of aerospace structural analysis plus a working knowledge of other related disciplines. Conducts sufficient structural analysis to ensure the feasibility of, and help direct the design of, systems and components for proposals and development programs.
Responsibilities:
10% - Read and understand aerospace technical requirements for specific Aerojet products and ensure adequate analysis methods and models are used to verify the design is in compliance with all structural requirements.
50% - Conduct the loading, stress and failure analysis of components to be designed and/or built by Aerojet. These analyses may include static loading, dynamic loading and composite materials. Material and geometric nonlinear analyses are sometime required. Computer aided design based mesh generation and finite element analysis capabilities are required. Previous NX, ABAQUS and/or ANSYS experience is a plus.
15% - Prepare reports, design review presentations, proposal inputs and other documentation regarding the structural analysis of Aerojet products.
