Worked in Vestas’ Materials Laboratory. Accomplishments:- Found causes of failures of metallic components, mainly gears and bearings, which implied changes in the production to avoid these failures going forward.- Detailed failure analysis of metallic components, mainly gears and bearings, which implied higher requirements to the inspections of the materials to avoid multiple failures.- Detailed material analysis of tested components, which gave understanding of the impact… Show more Worked in Vestas’ Materials Laboratory.
