About the role
SUMMARY
The Loads, Dynamics & Aeroelasticity Analysis Specialist is a contract aerospace engineer who supports the migration of Bombardier’s Loads and Dynamics analysis processes from legacy MSC software tools to the Siemens Simcenter NASTRAN solution. The objective of this mandate is to reproduce historical certification analyses and results generated using MSC tools, validate equivalent Siemens-based workflows, document differences, and establish approved replacement methodologies for future programs.
ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS
- Reproduce historical loads, aeroelasticity, aeroservoelasticity, and dynamic landing analyses using Siemens Simcenter NASTRAN.
- Execute and validate SOL 103, 112, 144, 145, and 146 analyses against certified MSC NASTRAN results.
- Compare, correlate, and document differences between MSC and Siemens results.
- Update and validate legacy DMAP workflows where required.
- Support migration of flutter, ASE, gust loads (TDG & PSD), and dynamic landing methodologies.
- Prepare technical memos, validation reports, and correlation studies.
- Develop recommendations to replace MSC-based processes and ensure long-term supportability.
- Provide knowledge transfer and documentation to Bombardier engineering teams.
Qualifications
KNOWLEDGE
- Aerospace loads, dynamics, aeroelasticity, and certification analyses.
- MSC Nastran and Siemens Simcenter NASTRAN, including NASTRAN Op2 output format.
- Flutter, aeroservoelasticity, TDG/PSD gust loads, and landing loads analyses.
- DMAP, finite element methods, and structural dynamics.
- MSC ADAMS or equivalent multibody dynamics tools (asset).
- MATLAB and/or Python for engineering analysis.
