Job Role & Responsibilities: -
Role
: Pedestrian Protection and Component Crash CAE Simulation & Evaluation
Responsibilities:
Prepare full vehicle CAE models using HYPERMESH/ANSA/PRIMER – Mesh discretization, Assembly, Constraints & Load setting – for automotive sub-systems and components.
Component Strength and Pedestrian Safety CAE simulations using LS-DYNA software. Development of vehicle body structures and aggregates for Pedestrian protection & Component strength (SBA, ISOFIX, etc.,)
Model optimization and Robustness using Hyperstudy, LS-OPT etc.
Interpretation of results in LS-PrePost/ HyperView/ Hypergraph - comprehend failure modes and provide directions for countermeasures by performing parameter studies on the FEM model.
Report preparation and communication with stakeholders – design, testing – for implementation of countermeasures.
Interact with testing teams for analyzing failures, correlation of CAE results with physical testing and make improvements in CAE for better correlation.
Competency Requirements
Technical / Functional
:
Strong knowledge of Strength of Materials, Theory of Elasticity/Plasticity, and Automotive Body, Sheet Metal, and Plastic Part Design.
Understanding of AIS Safety Regulations and NCAP protocols.
Knowledge of finite element analysis and Hands-on experience in Pedestrian protection and component crash CAE simulations, including SBA, luggage retention, ISOFIX, and related safety performance evaluations.
Experience in Crash CAE model building and system-level simulations. Full-vehicle crashworthiness simulation expertise will be an added advantage.
Debug the CAE model for LS-Dyna environment, interpret the results, post process the deck and report to functional manager.
Proficiency in FEA result analysis, post-processing, and preparation of technical reports with design improvement recommendations.
Familiarity with physical testing and correlation of test conditions with CAE simulations.
