What are your contributions to the team?

• Generate aerodynamic solutions using CFD software in support of Flight Sciences, Loads & Dynamics, Thermodynamics, and Systems requirements. Your role will also include the liaison of activities with these engineering groups.
• Produce estimates of external pressure distributions, aerodynamic loads and stability derivatives for specific Bombardier products and validate these results with experimental data.
• Develop complex CFD workflows applicable to aircraft designs, aircraft stability and control analysis, aerodynamic loads calculations or aero-structural multi-disciplinary optimization.
• Contribute to the development of various tools for CFD results analysis.
• Improve the efficiency of our numerical optimization algorithm by tuning input parameters and validate the new capabilities by optimizing various aircraft configurations.
• Develop novel mesh generation, deformation and adaptation techniques, CAD-free and/or CAD-centered, compatible with in-house software and/or commercially available grid generation packages.
• Predict aircraft drag, low-speed characteristics and stall onset using CFD.
• Generate wing structural models and perform static aero-elastic analyses.
• Prepare and participate in various wind-tunnel tests, support to results analysis and documentation.

• Model simple surfaces and create CAD parametric models with Catia v5 or NX.
