Here at The Exploration Company, we are developing, producing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable space orbital vehicle that can eventually be refuelled in orbit and that can carry cargo - and potentially humans in the longer run.
We want you as a talented vibro-acoustic engineer intern to help us in our mission by contributing to the development, justification and validation of our vehicle. As a vibro-acoustic engineer intern, you will be in charge of analysing the impact of the acoustic environment on our spacecraft. This internship is focused on the application of virtual Statistical Energy Analysis (SEA) for frequency range where finite element analysis methods can not be used on aero-acoustic simulations for reentry phases. You will be part of the Vehicle Design Team and will report to the Structural Analysis Principal Engineer.
Key responsibilities
In your capacity as a vibro-acoustic engineer intern, your role will include:
To adapt or build the model of the vehicle for acoustic simulations, with the right level of complexity depending on the maturity and the goals of the study.
To analyze and evaluate the accuracy and reliability of the results.
To collaborate with the aerodynamic team for the definition of the environment during reentry.
To propose and implement an approach for aero-acoustic reentry simulations.
To contribute to the creation and improvement of mechanical analysis tools.
To effectively communicate and provide recommendations through the analysis, preparation, and presentation of technical data.
To write technical documentation and participate to reviews.
What we would love to see from you
