Stress

Preliminary structural analysis of an aluminum Engine Block of a Diesel Engine for aeronautical application.

• Creation of the FE model of a slice of the engine, including Engine Block, Bedplate, Cylinder Barrels, Cranckshaft, Bearings and connecting screws; modelling of the contact regions between components;
• Non linear static analysis with application of screw pretensions and operating loads due to internal combustion;
• FE analysis postprocessing and hand calculation for endurance evaluation; reporting.

Maserati

Involvement in multiple projects as Tier 1 Supplier. Main activities:

• FE modelling of the Engine System and Fuel System components; modal, static and dynamic (frf, psd) structural analysis for static strength and endurance evaluation under operating loads of metallic and plastic components (brackets, tanks);
• CFD biphasic (air & fuel) analysis of the fuel system for the evaluation of Premature Shut-Off and Splash Back phenomena during refueling; creation of dedicated FE models and calibration based on test results.
• Thermofluidodynamic biphasic simulations for De-Icing evaluation;
• Refuelling System design (plastic and metallic components);
