Job Title: Soil & Crop Modeling Engineering Intern - Combine Harvester Model Development
About the Role
The CNH Soil and Crop Modeling (SCM) Team develops simulation technologies for agricultural equipment. The team uses expertise in engineering, physics, and computational modeling to simulate interactions between soil, crop materials, and machine components. SCM engineers utilize advanced modeling techniques such as Discrete Element Method (DEM), Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), and Multi-Body Dynamics (MBD). This internship offers the opportunity to work on real-world projects contributing to virtual crop and soil models, simulation workflows, and validation activities.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and validate virtual crop flow models for combine harvesting systems using Discrete Element Method (DEM) simulation software.
- Apply programming and API development techniques to enhance simulation model physics and improve the representation of grain-to-equipment interactions.
- Perform laboratory measurements of physical and mechanical crop properties, process experimental data, and incorporate findings into crop and equipment simulation models.
- Expand CNH's library of virtual crop models used to simulate threshing, separation, and grain handling processes within combine harvesters.
- Collaborate with crop flow modeling, design, and test engineering teams to support the design, validation, and continuous improvement of CNH harvesting equipment.
Requirements & Tech Stack
- Experience with Discrete Element Method (DEM) simulation software.
- Proficiency in programming and API development.
- Experience with laboratory measurements and data processing.
- Familiarity with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Multi-Body Dynamics (MBD) is a plus.
Qualifications
Candidates must be currently enrolled college students actively pursuing a degree.
Preferred majors or related fields include:
- Agricultural Engineering
- Mechanical Engineering
- Chemical Engineering
- Engineering Mechanics
- Materials Engineering
- Biological/Biosystem/Bioresource Engineering
- Agronomy
