Play a crucial role in optimising automotive systems to enhance noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) performance.
Demonstrate a strong understanding of automotive systems modelling, specifically in Body in White (BIW), cradles, chassis frames, closures, steering, and seating NVH.
Execute static and dynamic analysis, employing optimisation techniques to effectively modify designs and meet project targets swiftly.
Assess global stiffness, global modes, and dynamic stiffness to ensure robust designs.
Conduct model updates to correlate and validate operational NVH performance with simulation outcomes.
Incorporate variability considerations into simulations to enhance model accuracy.
Evaluate the effect of system-level performance on overall vehicle performance, identifying potential improvements.
Create process documentation for system-level NVH simulations and optimisation.
Utilise optimisation tools, such as Mode Frontier, to advance our noise and vibration performance metrics.
Develop new design validation plans (DVPs) that preemptively address NVH issues at the system level.
Deliver system-level DVPs for multiple projects while adhering to timelines and NVH performance criteria.
Implement design solutions that take into account manufacturability, cost, and time constraints while consistently achieving system-level NVH performance across diverse projects.
