Job Description:
In order to support the CRT team, Airbus Defence and Space is looking for a
Master thesis: Novel broadband dynamic vibration absorber development (d/f/m)
Are you looking for an internship and want to get to know the work of a material scientist? Then apply now! We look forward to you supporting us in the Airbus CRT team as an intern (d/f/m)!
Location: Taufkirchen/ Ottobrunn
Start: October 2025
Duration: 6 months
Airbus is a global pioneer in aeronautics, space and defence related services, creating cutting-edge technologies. Combining European heritage with global outreach, the diversity of our talent and technology drives innovation, integration and internationalization. Airbus CRT is the central research domain of the Airbus company, in charge of fundamental research for all Airbus divisions.
The proposed work addresses a critical need in the aerospace industry for lightweight, effective, and passive vibration control solutions. High performance, lightweight composite materials which are used in aircraft fuselages offer significant fuel efficiency benefits, however face a considerable challenge in terms of vibration and noise control. In fact, composites possess inherently lower damping characteristics compared to traditional metallic alloys.
This Master thesis will be dedicated to the design, numerical modeling, fabrication, and testing of innovative and beyond-state-of-the-art fluid-particle dampers for the reduction of vibrations and noise in a composite aircraft fuselage bay. Broadband damping performance in the range from 50 to 2,000 Hz and weight savings will be the drivers for the new dampers development.
As a Master student at Airbus CRT you will be a member of the materials team, be in charge of your MSc project, participate in technical project meetings with our customers and with our technical experts.
Your exciting tasks
Modelling and understanding of the vibration modes of a baseline cantilever swinger and of a real fuselage bay with frames and omega stringers - e.g. using Actran and/or Nastran
Modelling and understanding of the SoA tuned mass dampers (TMDs) currently used for vibration control
Design, numerical modelling, fabrication of dampers, integration on composite structures, and testing of new types of fluid-particle dampers for vibration control
Optimization of damping system to maximize damping and minimize weight penalty applying machine learning methods like surrogate modelling
Experimental testing of damping performance in an acoustic lab
If time allows: design and 3D printing of a functional demonstrator
Requirements
Education
Software skills (programming languages) and scientific/technical skills
Languages
Bachelor degree in mechanical engineering or physics with acquired skills in
Computational mechanics and computational acoustics (basics)
Coupon manufacturing, mechanical testing, and data analysis (basics)
Python programming and basic understanding of using machine learning tools (would be pluses)
Experience with 3D printing (would be a plus)
English (full professional command)
You like working in a diverse team, you have excellent communication skills, and are able to plan and execute your share of the work independently
This job requires an awareness of any potential compliance risks and a commitment to act with integrity, as the foundation for the Company’s success, reputation and sustainable growth.
