Structural test engineer vs stress engineer

Differences between structural test engineer and stress engineer duties and responsibilities

Structural test engineer example responsibilities.

• Manage Jenkins security by providing specific access to authorize developers/testers using project base matrix authorization strategy.
• Collaborate with frequency managers, FCC, FAA, and local spectrum authorities to plan frequency assignments.
• Import the model to perform simulation in ANSYS to procure the optimum design of a typical high mach air-frame structure.
• Formulate conceptual design of aeronautical, aerospace products or systems to meet customer requirements and communicate feed back to design engineers.
• Utilize rapid prototyping as proof of concepts for multiple new designs.
• Create PERL scripts to generate flying probe test programs from FabMaster outputs, saving licensing fees for commercial test development products.

Stress engineer example responsibilities.

• Lead CFD analyses on various aircraft types.
• Manage the development and design data in PDM to ensure successful completion.
• Manage Jenkins security by providing specific access to authorize developers/testers using project base matrix authorization strategy.
• Develop Perl, TCL, and Bourne shell tools to improve the CFD process.
• Perform FEA static analysis on primary and secondary MLG structural parts using ABAQUS as solver.
• Perform mission analysis using PATRAN, ABAQUS, and NASTRAN as well as basic hand calculations.
