FEA Automotive domain interview tips

[analyst89]

Hi All,

Can anyone please tell me the things i have to be prepared for an interview.

A little bit of myself,

I am working as a modeller in auto domain mostly in trim body modelling and i would like to home my skills to make it more attractive for me in the future.

Please give your valuable feedback at the earliest.

Thanks in advance.

Are you simply modeling 3D geometry or are you doing FE modeling?

1) How do you manage correlation?
2) Which fatigue methods are you familiar with?
3) have you ever specified a materials test for a new material? How did that go?
4) Do you do structural/acoustic modelling or just structural?
5) can you successfully model the insertion force and retaining force of a typical push in fixture? What are the important variables? What ranges would you use for them?
6) what is your approach to robustness?



Cheers
