Aircraft Structural Dynamics
Key Skills for: Structural Dynamics Engineer
- aeroelasticity and aeroservoelasticity analyses
- ground vibration testing (GVT) and flight flutter testing (FFT)
- dynamic system stability and frequency response calculations
- finite element models and analysis
- Matlab, Python, Fortran, or C/C++
Degree: Bachelor’s or Master’s (preferred) degree in Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering with Aerospace specialization
What are your contributions to the team?
• Perform aeroelastic and aeroservoelastic simulations in support of new aircraft design studies and continued airworthiness of in‑service aircraft
• Use engineering judgment on selecting the appropriate methods, techniques, and tools in resolving complex issues
• Prepare and maintain finite element models to perform aeroelastic and aeroservoelastic analysis
• Maintain, develop and document methods and in‑house software
• Support and interact with other engineering disciplines, such as Advanced Design, Aerodynamics, Structures, Mass Properties, Flight Controls and Control Laws
• Support ground vibration testing (GVT) and flight flutter testing (FFT) and post‑process results
• Document analyses and findings in engineering certification reports and presentations (English)
