Researcher development Physical Tire Models

vor 15 Stunden


Kaiserslautern, Deutschland Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft Vollzeit

The Fraunhofer ITWM is one of currently 76 institutes of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft zur Förderung der angewandten Forschung e.V. (Fraunhofer Society for the Promotion of Applied Research) and can thus draw on the competences of a strong network. As the Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Mathematics ITWM, we see our task in further developing key technologies, providing innovative impulses and implementing them in practice together with industrial partners. In doing so, we do not only want to build the bridge between the real and virtual world ourselves, but also be the link between university mathematics and its practical implementation. That is why the close connection to the Department of Mathematics at RPTU Kaiserslautern-Landau plays a special role.

**What you will do**

CAE-based methods are continuously accelerating the vehicle development process. Virtual vehicle models, controlled by virtual drivers, ride over the digital road surface of OEM proving grounds. A key component in the load transfer process is the tire, therefore the accuracy and reliability of virtual load prediction critically depends on the quality of the underlying tire model.

The division of Mathematics for Vehicle Development (MF) at the Fraunhofer ITWM in Kaiserslautern develops the tire simulation software CDTire, which, as a component of modern MBS programs, supports the development engineer in almost all analysis scenarios.
To strengthen our team, we are looking for a highly motivated employee with a strong tendency towards engineering, applied mathematics, mechanics, and computer science, especially in the area of modeling and simulation of complex mechanical and physical systems, ideally from the automotive environment.

**What you bring to the table**
- Very good university degree in mechanical engineering, applied mathematics or mechatronics as well as high competence in numerics and scientific computing.
- Advanced programming skills in Matlab/Simulink or C/C++.
- Knowledge of automotive engineering, specifically vehicle dynamics is desirable.
- Prior knowledge of tire mechanics is ideal.
- Strong communication and language skills to document and present results in German and English.

**What you can expect**
- A wide range of opportunities and offers for international scientific exchange.
- Practical relevance through interesting and varied project work in an innovative and agile team.
- Room for your own ideas and independent action.
- A modern, dynamic and exciting working environment with short decision-making processes and a flat hierarchy.
- The Fraunhofer ITWM shows an extraordinary commitment to a family-friendly working environment. For this, we have been awarded the Fraunhofer Family Logo.

The contract is initially limited to 2 years. The weekly working time is 39 hours. The position can also be filled part-time.

With its focus on developing key technologies that are vital for the future and enabling the commercial utilization of this work by business and industry, Fraunhofer plays a central role in the innovation process. As a pioneer and catalyst for groundbreaking developments and scientific excellence, Fraunhofer helps shape society now and in the future.
