Simulation Model Build Engineer

The SIMULIA 3DEXPERIENCE Simulation Model Build Engineer (SBE) Role is focused on the creation, build, and preparation of large and detailed finite element models, for structural simulation across a wide range of industry applications. The role employs automated meshing and assembly techniques and collaborative inputs from design, modeling, and simulation teams.

To build next generation automobiles, aircraft, ships, engines and e-batteries, model-based engineering requires a modern sophisticated platform to manage the complexities of automated meshing, multiple model configurations, and the connections and physics of these structural assemblies. Many structural simulations depend on smart, efficient, well-organized modeling of these assemblies. often requiring multiple finite element representation (FEMrep) variations in the assembly components – e.g. detailed vs coarse mesh, supplier solver mesh vs native design-generated mesh, lumped mass of an engine block, distributed fuel mass, etc – and the ease of interchangeability of these FEMreps, and re-useability of design data. Many manufacturers streamline their digital modeling process with specialized teams dedicated to pre-simulation preparation of detailed and/or large complex assemblies.

SIMULIA Simulation Model Build Engineer

The Simulation Model Build Engineer supplies the same modeling applications as flagship role Structural Analysis Engineer, and its extension Composite Structures Analysis Engineer – except packaged without the scenario procedures and simulation set-ups, and provided at a lower cost. Simulation Model Build Engineer is particularly suited to organizations where significant meshing and auto-meshing is required, in parallel with analysis activity in the product development process.

Simulation Model Build Engineer

Simulation Model Build Engineer includes:

• Composites and Nastran Converter extensions.
• Availability on the 3DEXPERIENCE cloud, for modeling operations.

Simulation Model Engineer can also be combined with Structural Engineer role (SLL) for basic static loads and modal frequency checks for model validation prior to delivery for full analysis applications, offering further flexibility to streamline and reduce costs of product development. The Simulation Model Build Engineer role provides an efficient, dedicated, cost effective structural modeling and assembly function in the product engineering process, enabling you to quickly test and deliver transformative innovations to the market.
