Internship - Tire Noise Engineer

INTERNSHIP TIRE NOISE ENGINEER 

VALIDATION OF TIRE EXTERIOR NOISE SIMULATIONS 

Job Purpose 

The Candidate will be part of the R&D Engineering Team of Tire Mechanics and Noise experts, focusing her/his activities on: 

Contributing to the validation and further development of tire exterior noise simulations, with the aim to start applying them to tire design for mitigating air-borne noise emissions, in the frame of current tire and vehicle pass by noise regulations requirements. 

Core Responsibilities & Working interactions 

• Become familiar with Bridgestone Finite Element based tire models used to simulate velocity fields of tire contour reason of noise propagation and with FEM Acoustics software, 

• Update, extend and support scale of these digital assets by direct applications on consumer tire products, in order to reduce exterior noise emissions  

• Work effectively with R&D researchers, staff, technicians, and management of Bridgestone EMEA Technical Center, actively taking part to R&D cross-functional teams.  

Job requirements 

• Master’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aeronautical, Aerospace Engineering,  

• Knowledge in Tire Dynamics and Tire Noise will be an added value, for instance because of Master Thesis in this fields, 

• Intermediate level user in CAD and Meshing software like CREO and HyperMesh will be an important added value, 

• Intermediate level user in CAE software like Abaqus or similia will be an important added value, 

• Intermediate level user in Acoustics FEM like Wave6 will be an important added value, 

• Programming skills in Matlab or Python will be an important added value, 

• Goal-oriented, motivated, creative and collaborative. Able to work within teams with strong communications skills.
