Role Summary:
- The Engineer Applied Structural Mechanical Analysis performs structural and rotor dynamic analysis and reviews for order engineering, product development and for R&D for all Business Units and products. This includes optimization of the mechanical product design in accordance with customer specifications and requirements, national and international standards and internal procedures. The engineer performs mechanical and rotor dynamic analysis in all phases of the project, including input for detailed design. The key objectives are accuracy and quality of the results as well as the on-time delivery of said results. The engineer is the technical specialist on applied structural mechanical analysis for the product lines.
- Proficiency in leveraging AI, machine learning, and programming languages (such as C Sharp, Python, MATLAB, or C++) to improve simulation accuracy, reduce simulation time, and automate repetitive tasks.
Responsibilities:
- Perform structural and vibration engineering analyses on the products (including pump, hydraulic turbine, valve, seal and including the auxiliary equipment) to judge the adequacy of the design in relation to the applicable design requirements and for R&D activities.
- Conduct basic engineering calculations (like shaft deflection, pressure boundary evaluation etc.) to validate FEA results. Good hands-on FEA Analysis tools (ANSYS and Dyrobes). FEA on Pumps and Valves. Carry out Fluid Structural Interface (FSI) analysis
- Execute the impact of the design modification of components on the structural design.
- Define critical dimensions of products and components.
- Executes different types of mechanical analysis and reporting, including torsional and lateral analysis on products, such as pumps and skids.
- Perform structural and thermal analysis of pressure vessels and rotating equipment
- Carry out finite element analysis (FEA) of machine components, sub-assemblies and related support structures to determine stress, strain and, where necessary, natural frequencies, un-damped and damped
- Review and evaluate customer specifications and supplier quotations related to technical acceptability of the mechanical design.
- Assess FEA results against customer specifications, industry and Flowserve design standards and procedures for fatigue life and dynamic stability
- Submittal of high-quality contractual documentation in accordance with customer/industry code requirements, such as ASME and present/discuss the results of the analysis with customer/stakeholders
- Plan, direct, coordinate and perform the structural engineering activities in accordance with customer requirements, company’s objectives and policies and within the established project budget and timeline
- Manage structural design activities, such that optimum cost effectiveness is obtained between quality, design, and manufacturing, while ensuring that the engineering design standards are adhered to.
- Conduct or participate in Root Cause Analysis to define corrective and preventive actions.
- Support R&D projects dedicated to modifying and develop product upgrades
- Support the order engineering teams in preparation and during customer meetings
- Develop design tools for product design modification
- Automation of the design and analysis process to improve the analysis time
- Provide management with accurate and informative reports and evaluate the results of project assignments along with appropriate recommended course of action.
- Participate in improvement and standardization activities such as Green Belt, Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma to improve the operational performance.
- Share information, knowledge and experience across Flowserve community Flowserve.
