CAE Engineer Responsibilities and Duties

-

If you are a college student or fresher who want to start career in CAE/FEA then this blog is for you guys.

You might be wondering what kind of role CAE Engineer has to perform in an organization.

Well, CAE Engineers jobs are available in different domain like IT & Software, Automotive, Heavy Industries, Aerospace etc. So there job duties changes depending upon the organisation and project. 

Most of the CAE Engineers have to learn multiple softwares with job roles and with increasing experience. That is purely depend upon the project and the organization's software license agreement. 

CAE work is broadly divided into Pre-processing, Analysis and Post-processing when it comes to software work. But other than this there are duties one has to perform for smooth work flow.




The below are the main responsibilities and duties of CAE Engineer :
  • Understand customer basic requirements and expectations for new product designs.
  • Perform complex design analysis using Computer Aided Engineering (CAE ) softwares.
  • Develop engineering design changes with minimum supervision.
  • Implement engineering changes as required.
  • Develop alternative design solution for complex problems.
  • Maintain records of all activities and results in CAE database.
  • Participate in design review meetings to provide appropriate recommendations. 
  • Interpret simulations output, provide recommendations to designers.
  • Ensure that all work carried out in compliance with company design, safety, environmental compliance and procedural standards.
  • Communicate with team members and customers on all project related matters.
  • Provide timely design guidance and support to team to meet customer requirements.
  • Assist management in establishing and updating project plans and priorities.
  • Maintain a positive working relationship with all levels of the organization.

What is difference between FEM and FEA?

Finite Element Method (FEM): Definition: FEM is a numerical technique used for solving problems related to engineering and mathematical physics. It's a broader concept and refers to the entire process of modeling a physical system or structure using finite elements. Process: The FEM involves discretizing a complex structure or system into small, simple shapes called finite elements. These elements are interconnected at points called nodes. Mathematical equations are then applied to each element to simulate the behavior of the entire structure. Application: FEM is a general approach and can be applied to various fields such as structural analysis, heat transfer, fluid dynamics, and electromagnetics. Finite Element Analysis (FEA): Definition: FEA is a specific application of the Finite Element Method. It is the process of using FEM to analyze and solve engineering problems. FEA focuses on the numerical simulation of physical phenomena by breaking down a complex system into finite...

I assume you already know the term "Meshing" in FEA. If you still want to read it then  you can visit below link of my previous article https://feadirect.blogspot.com/2020/05/what-is-meshing-in-fea.html Ok ! lets come to the point.  From the above image, you can imagine the representation of elements used in FEA. Here are the details : 1D Elements : 2 nodes It is also referred as line elements. Often used to represent the members, which are too long compared to the measurement of the cross section (L/r > 20). Useful when bending is the root cause of failure. Fundamental assumption : Changes in material properties along the cross section is negligible. Used to represent rods, beams, trusses, cables, frames etc. 2D Elements : 3, 4 nodes It is also referred as shell elements. Often used when thin sheet structures are under bending deformation. Can consider 2D stress conditions and bending and shear deformations. Fundamental assumptions : Changes i...

What is Meshing in FEA ?

In Finite Element Analysis (FEA), meshing is a crucial step in the simulation process. It involves dividing a complex geometry into smaller, simpler elements, creating a mesh. Each element represents a portion of the overall structure, and together they form a discretized approximation of the entire model. The primary goal of meshing is to break down the complex geometry into manageable units, allowing the FEA software to analyze and simulate the behavior of the structure under various conditions. The elements in the mesh are interconnected at points called nodes, forming a network that represents the geometry and structure of the object being analyzed. There are different types of elements used in meshing, such as triangles, quadrilaterals, tetrahedra, hexahedra, etc., each suitable for specific types of analyses and geometries. The choice of element type and the density of the mesh (the number of elements) significantly impact the accuracy of the simulation. A fine mesh with smaller ...
