Je contribuerai à la conception et à la simulation de ressorts mécaniques imprimés en 3D à l'aide de structures en treillis architecturées et de la fabrication additive. Je travaillerai sur la modélisation multi-échelle et l'optimisation des géométries de ressorts afin d'améliorer le rapport rigidité/poids et les performances de stockage d'énergie. Je contribuerai à la validation expérimentale par des tests instrumentés (par exemple, corrélation d'images numériques, tomographie).

En tant qu'ingénieur structurel au sein de l'équipe HYPERLOOP SUPAERO, j'ai contribué au développement d'un système de freinage d'urgence avancé pour un système de transport à grande vitesse. Ma principale responsabilité était la conception et la mise en œuvre d'un mécanisme de freinage à base de vérin pneumatique, garantissant la sécurité et la fiabilité du système dans des conditions extrêmes. Les principales réalisations comprennent : Modélisation CAO : développement de modèles CAO détaillés à l'aide de CATIA, qui ont été essentiels pour simuler les performances du système de freinage et identifier les améliorations potentielles. Optimisation du système : travail sur l'optimisation de la conception pour répondre à des normes de sécurité strictes tout en minimisant le poids et les coûts des matériaux. Collaboration : collaboration avec une équipe multidisciplinaire pour intégrer le système de freinage à d'autres composants critiques de la nacelle Hyperloop, garantissant un fonctionnement sans faille. Ce rôle m'a permis d'appliquer mes connaissances en ingénierie structurelle dans un projet de pointe visant à révolutionner le transport, tout en perfectionnant mes compétences en modélisation CAO, en conception de systèmes et en travail d'équipe interfonctionnel.
