F&DT Fatigue Analysis

Job Description Summary

• Structure Fatigue & Damage Tolerance Analysis Engineering.
• Analysis and Validation of metallic, hybrid and composite structures for Fatigue and Damage Tolerance (F&DT).
• Ensure safe operation of the product with respect to structural integrity and operational effectiveness.

Experience Range: 3-10 Years Only

• Knowledge Fatigue and Damage Tolerance analysis
• Theoretical knowledge in aircraft crack propagation analysis
• Knowledge of aircraft loads and experienced in spectrum generation
• Calculation of Seq stresses (fatigue and crack propagation), understanding of mission profiles, rainflow counting, Miner's rule, stress files, FESPS databases.
• Calculation of Stress concentration (Kt) values using Petersons' or DFEM or ISAMI modules.
• Analysis of metallic and composite structures (Plain Strength checks, Buckling, Bolted joint analysis)
• Knowledge of static and fatigue design values (Ftu, Fty, Fcy, AFI parameters, S-N curve parameters, fracture toughness etc.,)
• Static and Fatigue calculations (Hand calculations, DFEM, ISAMI, GFEM load redistribution)
• Ability to read the drawings and interpret fastener diameter, fastener fit, fastener spec & type, surface protection treatment to be useful for fatigue calculations.
• Possess strong foundation in the area of load/stress analysis with abilities to formulate ""free body diagrams"" and identify load path of structures
• ISAMI modules (Metallic Filled Hole, Composite Filled Hole, Lug analysis, Corin Analysis, Notch Sensitivity, Damage Tolerance, Tension Fitting, Fatigue Spectrum Analysis (1D & 2D), Fatigue DFEM Initiation Modules, etc.,)
• Experienced in documents (like PDR/CDR/Certification reports, Concessions, Repairs) and report creation and getting validated.
