Your tasks and responsibilities
Additive manufacturing technologies become more and more important for the Aerospace industry. Additive manufacturing is getting more mature for the Aerospace Industry., Lightweight and hydraulic optimized designs are now possible to manufacture much easier and faster.
The Master Thesis is focusing on hydraulic system parts which are highly pressure loaded components. To gain the full range of performance in terms of sizing it is mandatory to understand the behavior of the surface macro morphology and their corresponding fatigue life.
The aim of the Master Thesis is to evaluate the effect of different surface morphologies of additive manufactured hydraulic pipes.
The following tasks are part of the Master Thesis to assess the fatigue life of hydraulic AM Components
* Analysis and characterization of AM Surfaces morphology
* Definition and conduction of destructive tests
* Analysis of expected fatigue life results
* Test results assessment
* Comparison of tested and calculated fatigue life results and their conclusion in terms of design allowable.
Desired skills and qualifications
* Enrolled full-time student (d/f/m) in the area of Aircraft System Engineering, Hydro / Mechanical Engineering, Materials Engineering or an equivalent field of study
* First practical experience in the field of Hydro / Mechanical Systems is desirable
* Fluent in English. German is a plus
Please upload the following documents: cover letter, CV, relevant transcripts, enrollment certificate.
