Job Description
Perform structural analysis on assigned seat projects at the vehicle system level. Use Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and other analysis methods to assess and lead designs. Develop Finite Element Analysis (FEA) plans for assigned project. Participate in the creation of assigned subsystem Finite Element Analysis (FEA) models. Motivate Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) suppliers and internal resources to meet program milestones and deliverables. Complete FEA analysis including the production of VDDV models from NX math and execution of documented VDDV models per assigned projects. Perform FEA analysis such as Seat/Seat Belt Anchorage Strength, Child Restraint Anchorage Strength, Front/Rear Impact, Head Impact, whiplash etc. and lead seat designs to meet performance requirements. Compare FEA results to performance requirements and recommend viable design solutions. Correlate analysis results to physical test and update FEA models and FEA procedures and document results in FEA reports. Generates technical solutions for current, new, and major programs. Perform sophisticated design analysis. Develop engineering designs (including subsystems). Perform and be responsible for resources for virtual assessment of designs and compare results to performance requirements. Initiate design solutions to resolve any performance issues with mass and cost efficiency. Implement engineering changes and specifies and balances system requirements.
