Conduct static, transient, linear, nonlinear, fatigue (LCF/HCF), thermal, and structural analyses of wind turbine components using ANSYS Workbench. Evaluate the structural integrity of components by analyzing stress, strain, displacement, and other relevant parameters under various load conditions.
Interpret FEA results, identify potential areas for improvement, and propose design modifications to optimize component performance and reliability.
Drive technical solutions and reviews with a design team and multiple sub-suppliers and solution providers.
Investigate failures, conduct root cause analysis, and implement solutions to prevent recurring issues in wind turbine components.
Identify opportunities to improve FEA processes, documentation, and design methodologies.
Prepare and document detailed reports summarizing the FEA analysis, results, and recommendations.
Participate in hiring, training, mentoring, and reviewing junior engineers.
Embrace a proactive approach to quality by adhering to best practices and QMS processes.
