About the role
Role Overview: You will be responsible for designing and optimizing cyclorotor blades for efficient thrust generation and control. Your role will involve performing aerodynamic simulations, validating thrust, torque, and moment characteristics, and supporting the development of control strategies for orientation and thrust vectoring. Collaboration with embedded systems and structural teams to ensure functional integration will also be a key aspect of your responsibilities. Key Responsibilities: - Design and optimize cyclorotor blade for efficient thrust generation and control - Perform aerodynamic simulations and validate thrust, torque, and moment characteristics - Support the development of control strategies for orientation and thrust vectoring - Collaborate with embedded systems and structural teams to ensure functional integration - Any other work assigned as per requirement Qualification Required: - PhD with relevant experience OR MTech / ME in Mechanical engineering, Robotics, with relevant experience - OR BTech / BE in Mechanical engineering, Robotics, with relevant experience - Proficiency in low-speed aerodynamics and unsteady flow analysis - Experience with CFD tools (e.g., ANSYS Fluent, Open FOAM) and rotor performance prediction tools - Familiarity with flight dynamics and basic drone control principles (PID, stability margins) - Experience with experimental validation or wind tunnel testing is desirable (Note: The additional details of the company were not mentioned in the provided Job Description.)
