Intern

Snecma, a SAFRAN Group company, designs, develops and produces engines for civil and military aircraft, launch vehicles and satellites, either alone or in partnership.

I had an intern position within the R&D department.

Mission:
- Determination of a representative cyclic load of a turbine blade (hot part of an air breathing engine)
- Behavior analysis in terms of stresses and strains of an elasto-visco-plastic material
- Meshing of a representative sample part with CATIA and PATRAN
- Computation of the stabilized cyclic response of the structure using the direct cyclic method implemented in ABAQUS for a simplified material behavior and the elasto-visco-plastic material behavior developed by Snecma
- Comparison of the stabilized responses given by the direct cyclic approach and the transient analysis and validation of the direct cyclic method

Sector: Equipment and aeronautic systems
