Core Capabilities


 

Electromechanical Design

Within Electromechanical Design, Stirling Dynamics brings together a team with experience in mechanical, electrical, and electronic engineering with the knowledge of CAD and stress analysis. We have a range of design skills to support both our own products and those of our customers, including the ability to reverse engineer existing designs. Our engineers also develop new designs to support many of our clients who then take these designs forward to manufacture.

Systems and
Safety

The Systems and Safety capability group provides capability across a wide range of aerospace applications. Their expertise covers the full design life cycle; we have experience in new platform, system, and equipment developments as well as in continuous product development and system/equipment modifications. Our skills are used to support our customers, and our own product developments.

Simulation and
Control

The Simulation and Control capability group operates across all major business units across the company, including training and simulation, aerospace and marine. We model all aspects of aerospace and marine systems and their environments, building integrated models that can be used to simulate all aspects of a system’s performance. Our understanding of system dynamics also allows us to develop and implement control laws for both aerospace and marine systems.

Structural and Fluid Dynamics

The Structural and Fluid Dynamics capability group cover the flight physics activities within the company. By building structural models of the airframe and landing gear and integrating an aerodynamic model onto the airframe, we can compute flight and grounds loads. Assurance that the operational envelope is clear of the instabilities of flutter and shimmy is established. Our strong aerodynamics capability, in both wing and rotary wing configurations, not only supports our loads activities but also allow us to provide design optimisation and performance assessments.

Our three-step process to project success

Whatever you are trying to achieve, from upgrading your cabin interior to designing a submarine autopilot, we apply the same level of care and attention to all our customer projects.
