Stress Engineers - Bristol UK- Hybrid working- Contractor. Our Aerospace client based in Bristol, UK, requires several Stress Engineers on a contractor basis, to further support their programs. A hybrid working model of 3 days onsite per week and 2 days working from home is accepted. Several Stress Engineers are required to support the stress analysis of Aerostructures. Candidates are required to be capable, flexible, and to be able to work independently to assess both composite and metallic design solutions using a variety classical stress methods and finite element analysis. Be able to conduct a variety of stress analysis on both composite and metallic structures including general strength analysis, stiffness assessments, buckling and stability strength, fastener and joint strength, standard composite strength analysis of both sandwich and thermoset composite panels, composite damage tolerance analysis of open hole strength and compression-after-impact strength. Have a good understanding of structural design e.g. Wingbox including understanding load and stiffness requirements, design of load interfaces such as flap and moveable surfaces and wingbox to fuselage connections. Be able to perform finite element analysis using recognized toolsets such as Nastran, Patran, Simcenter 3D. Candidates should be capable of creating, modifying, and post-processing results from FEM models. Generate stress documentation including reserve factor summaries, detailed stress ..... full job details .....
