Job Description
Job Description:
In order to support the Flight Physics Capabilities department Airbus Operations is looking for an
Intern: Large-Scale Sparse Generalized Eigenvalue Problem Solving (d/f/m)
Location: Hamburg
Start: As soon as possible
Duration: 6 months
Airbus @ Flight Physics Capabilities Hamburg
Airbus is a well known global leader in aeronautics space and related services. The Flight Physics Capabilities team designs develops integrates and delivers all Flight Physics digital capabilities. It also innovates through using state of the art technologies and the application of the latest methods and tools. Within our mission we proactively support our customers inside and outside Flight Physics and bring value to the company through strengthened design processes.
You will be working at the largest production site for civil aircraft situated in Hamburg. Experience the special flair of Hamburg in your spare time where vibrant cosmopolitan culture meets nautic legacy.
Description of the Internship
In many scientific and engineering fields particularly in structural mechanics a critical computational step involves solving the generalized eigenvalue problem represented by the equation: AxBx
Here A and B are large sparse matrices x is the eigenvector and is the our software ecosystem this calculation is fundamental for understanding the vibrational modes and frequencies of complex structures.
To enhance our computational efficiency we are optimizing the solver for large-scale engineering problems. The standard dense matrix solver from the Eigen library while straightforward is not ideally suited for the performance demands of our sparse systems. An existing high-performance solution leverages the powerful PETSc framework; however our goal is to streamline the software by reducing its complex dependency chain (SLEPc BLAS LAPACK ARPACK) to improve maintainability and simplify deployment. This solution has to rely on open source libraries only (no proprietary lib authorized). This internship focuses on developing a new efficient and self-contained C solver that meets our performance requirements of a few seconds per run while minimizing external dependencies.
Your benefits
Work-life balance with a 35-hour week (flexitime) and EUR 750 gross/monthly salary.
A final thesis is possible after consultation with the department.
International environment with the opportunity to network globally.
Work with modern/diversified technologies.
At Airbus we see you as a valuable team member and you are not hired to brew coffee instead you are in close contact with the interfaces and are part of our weekly team meetings.
Opportunity to participate in the Generation Airbus Community to expand your own network.
Tasks and accountabilities
Investigate and select a lightweight C library for sparse eigensolvers (like an ARPACK wrapper) based on performance integration ease and minimal dependencies.
Develop a C solver class to solve the AxBx problem integrating the chosen library into our CMake build and handling any necessary data conversions.
Benchmark the new solvers speed and memory usage against the baseline and validate the numerical accuracy of the results.
Document the solvers architecture then prepare a final report summarizing the projects findings design choices and performance.
Required skills and knowledge
Currently pursuing a degree in IT Mathematics Physics or engineering
Degree requires a mandatory internship
Good communication and interpersonal skills
Fluent in English
C programming
