Job Summary

We are looking for an FEA Engineer experience in the Aerospace domain, with hands-on experience in Altair HyperMesh, MSC Nastran and MSC Patran. The candidate should have a strong understanding of finite element modelling, meshing, structural mechanics, load and boundary condition definition, solver execution and post-processing.

The ideal candidate will have experience working on aircraft structures, aerospace components, UAV/drone structures or similar mechanical structures and should be capable of independently handling FEA activities from model preparation through analysis, result interpretation and technical reporting.

Roles & Responsibilities

- Develop FEA models for aerospace/aircraft structures and components using HyperMesh and Patran.
- Perform 2D and 3D meshing using shell and solid elements while maintaining required element quality.
- Define material properties, element properties, contacts, connections, loads and boundary conditions.
- Set up and perform structural analyses using MSC Nastran, including linear static and modal analysis.
- Perform buckling, frequency response, random vibration, shock and fatigue analyses based on project requirements.
- Create,



review and troubleshoot Nastran input decks and solver outputs.
- Perform post-processing using Patran/HyperView and evaluate stress, strain, displacement, reaction forces and mode shapes.
- Work on FEA of aircraft structural components, brackets, fittings, frames, panels, mounts and UAV/drone structures.
- Review CAD models, drawings and engineering requirements and convert them into appropriate FEA models.
- Perform FE model quality checks, including mesh quality, connectivity, property assignment, loads and boundary conditions.
- Interpret analysis results, identify critical locations and provide appropriate engineering recommendations.
- Support result validation/correlation and address analysis-related issues.
- Robust hands-on experience with HyperMesh, Nastran and Patran is expected.
- Aerospace/aircraft structural analysis experience is highly desirable.
- Exposure to OptiStruct or other commercial FEA solvers will be an advantage.
- Knowledge of CATIA/NX/SolidWorks and basic scripting using Python/MATLAB will be an added advantage.
