๐ฉ From Sketch to Validated Part โ CAD, Carbon Fiber & Simulation
I design parts that are built to perform โ whether in aluminum, steel, or carbon fiber reinforced polymer. With a Master's in Automotive Engineering (GPA 1.49) and hands-on experience from motorsport, aerospace, and industry, I bring the full development chain to your project: concept, CAD, material selection, layup design, and FEM validation.

๐๏ธ Carbon Fiber โ From Layup to Laminate Design
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
My carbon fiber expertise goes beyond CAD. As department lead for the monocoque at Formula Student, I was responsible for the full manufacturing process โ from hand layup and RTM to autoclave-cured prepregs. I know the practical differences between woven fabrics, UD tapes, non-crimp fabrics (NCF), and advanced materials like Textreme, and how those choices affect stiffness, weight, and producibility.
At Carbon TT, I then acquired the engineering tools to back this up analytically โ calculating and sizing CFRP structures under real load cases, accounting for anisotropic behavior, failure criteria, and manufacturing constraints.
What this means for you: I can design your carbon fiber part and tell you how to build it.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
โ๏ธ CAD โ Clean, Manufacturable, Ready to Build
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
I model in CATIA V5 and Autodesk Fusion 360, with Design for Manufacturing (DfM) as a guiding principle throughout. Surfaces, assemblies, parametric models โ delivered clean and ready for 3D printing, CNC, or tooling.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
๐ FEM โ Validate Before You Prototype
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
For projects that require structural confidence, I offer FEM validation as an integrated service:
โข Static & modal analysis (CATIA V5 GSD, PrePoMax/CalculiX)
โข Nonlinear & crash simulation (LS-DYNA)
โข Topology optimization for weight-efficient structures (Altair Inspire)
This is the same toolchain used by OEMs and aerospace suppliers โ now available for your freelance project.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
โ What You Can Expect
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
โข Focused, independent execution โ you define the requirements, I deliver the result
โข Engineering judgment, not just modeling: DfM, material selection, and structural thinking built in
โข Clear documentation and technical drawings on request
โข Fast turnaround with reliable communication in English, German, or Spanish

I help researchers and engineers turn complex material concepts into simulation-ready models โ saving weeks of setup, debugging, and validation work. I provide:
1) Realistic polycrystals with grain boundaries, precipitates, and tailored microstructures
2) Custom grain boundaries with specified misorientation, absorbed dislocations, and interface engineering
3) Physically accurate defects such as dislocations and twins embedded directly into grains
Unlike generic structure builders, my models are energetically minimized and validated, making them immediately usable in simulations. No extra setup or debugging required.
Whether for publications, advanced materials R&D, or industrial testing, I deliver high-quality, customized atomic structures ready for visualization in OVITO or direct simulation in LAMMPS.
