• Estimation of mass distribution
• Preliminary sizing of assemblies with rational assumptions on external loads
• Able to provide internal loads of subcomponents for sizing
• FEM modeling and analysis
• Structural optimization
• Vibration and frequency response analysis
• Fatigue and damage tolerance analysis
• Analysis tools development
• Preparation of technical reports and presentations
• Continuous exchanges with suppliers
• Assist in the development of manufacturing, integration, and test processes and procedures
• Certification and qualification process support
