About Mathieu Fregeau
Buy me a coffee or get on a Zoom call: buymeacoffee.com/mathieusanPassionate for Airplane design, innovative propulsion, new commercial airplane concepts. Metallics, carbon composites or 3D prints of structural components. I contributed to different design configurations & trade studies for new civilian airplane programs at Boeing. I did various FEA, structural sizing & weight prediction. Developed new tools to predict weight of primary structures based on analyses. I worked 15+ years in aerospace, 6+ years in the automotive industry as a structure analyst and design coach. Production cost optimization normally drives the design in the automotive industry. Safety, fatigue, and mission-critical concepts normally drive aerospace designs. I like technical challenges, innovations, and generating ideas.Finite Element Analysis (FEA), Design for reliability and cost saving, Airplanes, Rockets, Cars, Combustion engine, Rocket engine, Aero loads, Thermal loads. Electric motors. Innovative thinking, Technical coaching.I developed a race car differential auto-locking and limited-slip designed from scratch. I performed aircraft wing structure sizing and weight estimation based on FEA; as well as load estimation on aircraft wing using unviscous fluid methods; airplane configuration reviews; heavy mounting system response such as truck power-train; components modal interaction map; non-linear FEA, vibration, Goodman diagrams, fatigue and life prediction analysis.Designer, Stress analyst, Structural analyst, Aerospace engineer, Rocket, Airplane.
