Job Description

Research Scientist. 2545 Farmers Drive, Ste 200, Columbus, OH 43235. Design and develop engineering workflows and methodologies for geometry preparation and meshing in support of metal forming. Analyze geometry pre-processing and mesh generation components to prepare simulation inputs for metal forming analyses. Apply principles of mechanical engineering, computational geometry, and finite element mesh generation using technologies such as C++, Fortran, Qt, and Microsoft Visual Studio. Implement techniques for repairing flawed or incomplete geometry to ensure suitability for engineering simulation. Support design and development aspects, including Plane slicing, Curve-based splitting, Boolean operations, Curve imprinting, Geometry translation and duplication, Hole filling, and Orientation checking, to enhance software performance. Create mesh structures with variable mesh density in deformation-critical areas. Improve simulation accuracy to ensure high-quality mesh representation in regions where material separation or shearing occurs. Analyze customer and software needs to develop proper geometry pre-processing and mesh generation specifications.u00a0Requirements: Master's Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field. Knowledge of 1) C/C++ programming languages, 2) GUI design/Computer Graphics, 3) Parallel Computing, and 4) Data/Geometry modeling, as demonstrated by 2 graduate academic courses, graduate thesis research, or 6 months of experience in each of four areas noted above, is required.
