Danville, Illinois - Usa

thyssenkrupp Crankshaft Co., Product Engineering team. Responsible for granting successful launch/changes of new/existing crankshafts (automotive division) following APQP guidelines to ensure quality planning. Responsible for forging and machining modeling for automotive and large diesel divisions using PTC Creo. Responsible for structural calculation to ensure robust design for automotive and large diesel divisions using Altair package (pre, solver and post) and FEMFAT.

Campo Limpo Paulista, São Paulo - Brazil

thyssenkrupp Metalurgica Campo Limpo, Crankshaft Division. Advanced Engineering department, CAE team. Responsible for performing simulations of all necessary steps to ensure infinite life of a crankshaft under actual engine loads. Most complex calculation would make use of Patran/Ansys/Simlab for pre-processing the crankshaft with respective connecting components (conrod and piston, TVD/pulley, flywheel/flex plate, bearing shells, gear train, block and cylinder head), condensing it using Nastran/Optistruct (main), running on AVL Excite (MBD) and then, using the modal participation factors, doing final fatigue calculation on FEMFAT.

Campo Limpo Paulista, São Paulo - Brazil

thyssenkrupp Metalurgica Campo Limpo, Crankshaft Division. R&D team with focus on torsional vibration calculation for crankshafts. Helped the team to create routines for Matlab to solve torsional vibration of complex multi-body dynamics systems. Results needed to correlate with AVL Excite (benchmark software).

Van Buren Township, Michigan - Usa

DTS (Driveline and Transmission Systems) Department. Co-op job where was part of the CAE team, responsible for developing solutions for (mainly) universal transmission systems. Abaqus (solver), Hypermesh (pre-proc), HyperView (post-proc), SABR (MBD) as well as Solidworks (modeling) were the main tools in use. I was also the creator of the RPT (Resource Planning Tool), that would download the amount of resources dedicated/utilized by all employees on all available projects straight from SAP to Excel, having automated data treatment and chart creation (VBA programming), in order to help top management to take decisions over time allocation and outsourcing necessity.

Guaratinguetá, São Paulo - Brazil

Responsible for maintaining and repairing electrical systems of all equipments and devices at UNESP Technological Lab. Also developed a tool/systematic to monitor inventory and flow of electrical components.
