Job Description:
L3Harris is seeking a Sr. Associate, Structural Engineer (Stress) to join our Aeronautical Systems Engineering team. In this role, you will perform analysis of aircraft structure using classical and finite element analysis methods to develop free body diagrams, calculate internal loads and stresses, and write margins of safety for static strength.
Essential Functions:
Use classical hand analysis and create finite element models to predict internal loads, displacements, and stresses for complex structure.Collaborate with design engineers to develop aircraft modifications and installations and ensure the design meets airworthiness requirements.Generate free body diagrams and calculate internal loads and stresses.Develop structural tests and post-process the results to establish allowable strength data.Document structural analysis in formal reports to show compliance with airworthiness requir...
