Hello 😄 I'm Carlos! If you are here is because you need a CFD or a FEA Analysis, probably quick, and 𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝘁 in record time. If anything defines me is dedication, effort, determination and rapidness, deliverying an 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐞 𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤, solving any problem your project may be facing in record time ⏱️. My journey started early in the degree, learning and advancing further in the knowledge of simulations. After six months of experience, I participated with an architecture firm to prove the movement of the air convection in the first Zero Building in Spain, proving the chosen field both extremely interesting and profitable. In order to achieve more knowledge in simulations, I did the International Master's in FEM and CAE Simulations, soon after being contacted by INGECIBER (the business teaching the master) and becoming both professor and collaborator, a contractual relationship that extends to the present day. In those seven years of experience, I have worked for numerous projects; bridge calculations for the UNO in DR of Congo, wind calculations for solar plants for BP, or handcuffs... Basically I don't know what new surprise every day brings.

    Mechanical engineer specialised in product development through Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). My 15+ years experience focuses on applying CFD in a wide variety of sectors and challenges, from industrial OEMs to architecture studios. CFD is a computer simulation that delivers high-level 3D technical insight about the thermal and aerodynamic performance of any design, thereby drastically improving any decision making process. Intended to significantly shorten development costs and times-to-market, CFD turns out specially useful in the early stages of any design process. They allow to tackle otherwise intractable complex subjects such as heat transfer, ventilation of complex spaces, energy efficiency, etc.

    I am an Aerospace Engineer, focusing on the computational aspects of engineering. I have experience in Structural Analysis (including Analytical methods and Finite Element Analysis), Computer Programming (Python, Matlab, C/C++), Engineering Materials, Engineering Design. Over the past 6 months I have worked in developing Python scripts for ANSA (FEA pre-processor) to automate the finite element model creation process. The tools I have developed working for Audi, BMW and Ford help the model creation engineer save several hours per model and reduce variability between models, providing higher quality models and therefore more robust results. Before that, I have worked in Aerospace industry as a Stress engineer. I have developed and validated finite element models for a large aerospace interiors manufacturer. In this role I have developed models in ANSA, run simulations in Hyperworks Optistruct and post-processed the results in Hyperworks Hyperview. In this position, I have also developed a tool that automatically writes the simulation file, saving the team about half an hour of work for every model and help avoid mistakes. My formal education is in Aerospace Engineering. I have graduated with a First Class MEng in Aeronautics and Astronautics from the University of Southampton, in 2019. During my time in university I have focused on Materials and Structures. On structures side, I have experience in both design and analysis/simulation. In Material science, I have good understanding of both material properties and failure modes, including static, fatigue and creep failures. I also have very good knowledge of composite materials. My biggest projects consisted in designing the structure of a small unmanned jet powered aircraft and in developing an innovative method for non-destructive material testing (NDT). The jet powered aircraft was the first of its kind designed and built at my university. The article I have co-authored on the new NDT method is called "Infrared Deflectometry for Slope Deformation Measurements" and has been publiched in Springer's Experimental Mechanics.

    Industrial Designer located on the Gold Coast, Australia! Currently, I am employed full-time as an Industrial Designer with a product development company located on the Gold Coast. I'm very experienced with turning people’s ideas into real products that are currently manufactured in China and sold worldwide. 3D CAD skillset: Over the course of my career, I have used a variety of CAD programs, which include: Alibre Design, Solid Works, Solid Edge, and Autodesk Fusion 360. I offer the following types of 3D design: - Single Part - full Assembly designs And I do this using: - Parametric Modelling (this is modelling with known dimension in mind), and - Surface modelling (this style of modelling creates free-flowing organic shapes) Materials: - Plastic Injection mould - CNC - Metal Fabrication Why do I offer my services on Upwork if I am so experienced? I absolutely love this job and honestly cannot get enough of it! I work full time during the day and during the night I work on personal projects, some of which are manufactured in China and sold through various e-commerce stores. It’s also exciting to earn a small amount of coin on the side when the opportunity arises. Why should you choose me over all of the other experienced designers on Upwork? For the same reason, you choose your friends and significant other... trust. To be honest, it should be a good fit between yourself and the designer so both parties get a good outcome, in the end, I bring to you: - Experience - Honesty - Professional attitude - Willingness to create the best design for your buck! - Fast delivery times To ensure you get the same professional service and delivered in the shortest amount of time possible (as you would get with an established brick and mortar design consultancy) I will be following the same tried and proven processes. The Design Process Overview: 1. Protect your idea / intellectual property (IP): 2. Client Brief: Before starting a design it's important for the designer to gain a clear understanding of what the client’s goal/s might be. For example, it’s important to know the manufacturing process before the design starts to ensure the design is created in a way that is optimized for that process. 3. Concept Development: Ideation is often the most exciting stage in the project! The aim is to generate a large number of ideas that can then filter and cut down into the best, most practical or most innovative ones in order to better the product. 4. 3D CAD Design / Modelling: Once the design has been clearly nutted out in the previous stages the 3D stage should be quick to complete. 5. 3D Design Review: Once the design is complete you'll have the chance to review the design and make changes if needed. 6. Sign off: Once you are all happy with the design you will be provided with a file that can be used to manufacture your design. Thanks for reading I hope we can work together and create some really beautiful stuff!

How to Hire Top Finite Element Analysis Specialists

How to hire finite element analysis specialists

From fluid dynamics to thermal transport to physical stress, many physical phenomena can be simulated with math using a technique called finite element method (FEM). A finite element analysis (FEA) specialist can help you test your products in a simulated environment.

So how do you hire FEA specialists? What follows are some tips for finding top FEA specialists on Upwork.

How to shortlist finite element analysis professionals

As you’re browsing available FEA consultants, it can be helpful to develop a shortlist of the contractors you may want to interview. You can screen profiles on criteria such as:

  • Scientific field. You want an FEA specialist who understands what you are trying to simulate and the problem you are trying to solve.
  • Project experience. Screen candidate profiles for specific skills and experience (e.g., modeling the effects of electromagnetic interference on your PCB design).
  • Feedback. Check reviews from past clients for glowing testimonials or red flags that can tell you what it’s like to work with a particular FEA specialist.

How to write an effective finite element analysis job post

With a clear picture of your ideal FEA specialist in mind, it’s time to write that job post. Although you don’t need a full job description as you would when hiring an employee, aim to provide enough detail for a contractor to know if they’re the right fit for the project.

An effective FEA job post should include:

  • Scope of work: From validating EMC shielding to modeling acoustic performance, list all the deliverables you’ll need.
  • Project length: Your job post should indicate whether this is a smaller or larger project.
  • Background: If you prefer experience with certain industries, sciences, or software, mention this here.
  • Budget: Set a budget and note your preference for hourly rates vs. fixed-price contracts.

FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS SPECIALISTS FAQ

What is finite element analysis?

Differential calculus can be used to describe many physical phenomena. An FEA specialist can use software built with FEM models to simulate the effects of stresses, strains, heat, and other phenomena on different materials and objects, often modeled with CAD (computer-aided design).

Here’s a quick overview of the skills you should look for in FEA consultants:

  • Finite element analysis
  • FEA software such as COMSOL Multiphysics
  • Subject-matter expertise (e.g., fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, electromagnetism)
  • Science or engineering discipline (e.g., mechanical engineer, chemical engineer, physicist)
  • CAD tools such as SolidWorks

Why hire finite element analysis specialists?

The trick to finding top FEA specialists is to identify your needs. Do you need to analyze the stresses and strains in a new ball bearing you wish to add to your product line? Or is your goal to model both fluid flow and heat transfer through a series of heat exchangers? The cost of your project will depend largely on your scope of work and the specific skills needed to bring your project to life.

How much does it cost to hire an FEA specialist?

Rates can vary due to many factors, including expertise and experience, location, and market conditions.

  • An experienced FEA specialist may command higher fees but also work faster, have more specialized areas of expertise, and deliver a higher-quality simulation.
  • A contractor who is still in the process of building a client base may price their FEA more competitively.

Which one is right for you will depend on the specifics of your project.
