Job Description:

In order to support the department Stress Methods & Optimisation, Airbus Defence and Space is looking for a

Master Thesis in Airframe Stress Methods and Optimisation - General System Definition and Integration in Preliminary Aircraft Mission Simulation (d/f/m) 

You are looking for a master thesis and want to get to know the work of a job title? Then apply now! We look forward to you supporting us in the department Stress Methods & Optimisation as a Masterand (d/f/m)!

Location: ManchingStart: As soon as possibleDuration: 6 months

For an ongoing research project at Airbus Defence and Space, the in-house simulation software Lagrange will be integrated into a multi-disciplinary framework to combine the structural simulation and optimization capabilities with multi-fidelity general system simulation models. To satisfy the needs of the aircraft design process at Airbus Defence and Space, this framework allows
automatic generation of analysis models that can be employed for different design disciplines. The parameter based geometry definition enables time efficient concept studies during early design phases.
 

Currently an in-house mission simulation software is being extended to support the architecture of preliminary system design. It is desired to assess the required system performance and its impact on the aircraft performance. The thesis will involve a study of different definition types of aircraft systems based on the CPACS (parametric data format by DLR) definition. The current available
software will be extended to read the desired system definition and define a preliminary simulation models for the different ATA chapters and their interfaces. With this foundation system design simulations should be investigated and implemented. E.g. system mass evaluation, wiring and piping simulation or system redundancy analysis.

Your location

Located about an hour’s drive north of Munich, Manching is an up-and-coming market town that offers a wide range of leisure and cultural activities. Here, you can enjoy the quality of life in the countryside while the pleasures of near-by cities are still within easy reach.

Your benefits

Attractive salary and work-life balance with an 35-hour week (flexitime).

International environment with the opportunity to network globally.

Work with modern/diversified technologies.

At Airbus, we see you as a valuable team member and you are not hired to brew coffee, instead you are in close contact with the interfaces and are part of our weekly team meetings.

Opportunity to participate in the Generation Airbus Community to expand your own network.

Your tasks and responsibilities

 Getting familiar with the aircraft system definition

Construction of volumetric system geometry primitives
