The department core competence spans different fields in applied mechanics, including structural dynamics, fatigue and fracture mechanics and materials constitutive modelling, with emphasis on the mechanics of high-voltage cables. Through the range of different R&D projects and consulting assignments, there will be great opportunities to build a global network of technical partners and business units. 

As R&D Modeling and Simulation Experts your main tasks will be to:
Perform finite element analysis for different cutting edge product applications to solve complex problems that arise in various areas of applied mechanics such as fatigue and fracture mechanics, materials constitutive modelling and structural dynamics. Another important task is to understand our internal and external customer needs as well as their business drivers and implement creative solutions that requires highly advanced mechanical modelling competence. 
Together with your colleagues, you will lead and conduct various type of consulting and R&D projects end-to-end, from initial client discussion to execution and reporting. You will contribute with your modelling and simulation expertise to the future development of world class high and medium voltage products.

As R&D Modelling and Simulation Expert you will be part of the Applied Mechanics Department  in the Technology Consulting center in Västerås. In this role you will, among other things:
* Have the opportunity to work in a multidisciplinary environment with a keen interest in creative innovation.
