FEA structural EngineerTower Engineering

The Ph.D. project subject is fracture mechanical models of thin film. The scope is to develop method for fracture toughness determination of thin films. This is done by linking indentation fracture patterns with the stress state in the film caused by the indentation. The Film stresses are obtained from FEM analysis of the indentation process. The FEM analyses include nonlinear effects as contact, large displacements and material and geometrical nonlinearities. The FEM results are used as input… Show more The Ph.D. project subject is fracture mechanical models of thin film. The scope is to develop method for fracture toughness determination of thin films.

The FEM analyses include nonlinear effects as contact, large displacements and material and geometrical nonlinearities. The FEM results are used as input for fracture mechanical models for thin film cracking in order to be able to determine the film fracture toughness.Other Tasks:-Teacher in bachelor level course Finite Element Analysis in both Danish and English-Teacher in bachelor level course Design Optimisation-Teaching assistant in master's level course Introduction to Digital Image Correlation Show less

My tasks were, in various projects, to extract relevant data from data sheets, drawing etc. and present the data in a clear way, typically in an Excel spreadsheet.

My task was to construct minor changes to existing pumps in order to sell a large quantity of the customised pump.
