Dear Sir or Madam,
|
||
|
||
I am currently in my final year at Icam, where I am pursuing a dual degree in General Engineering alongside a specialization in Mechanics of Materials and Structures from the University of Paul Sabatier. With a solid foundation in engineering and a passion for naval vessel design, I am writing to apply for an internship in your naval vulnerability research program at Damen Naval.
|
||
|
||
\section{Why I am interested in this internship}
|
||
|
||
My long-term aspiration is to design and build my own sailboat, a personal project that continuously drives me to deepen my knowledge in advanced mechanical and structural engineering. Damen Naval’s cutting-edge work in naval vessel vulnerability and your commitment to technological innovation are perfectly aligned with my interests and professional goals.
|
||
|
||
The opportunity to contribute to research on vulnerability aspects—such as dynamic buckling of thin-walled structures, shock resistance, and material failure models—resonates with my desire to be at the forefront of naval engineering. I have honed my skills through both academic coursework and hands-on projects, and I am excited about applying my technical knowledge to the advanced naval systems your company is developing.
|
||
|
||
\section{Why I could be of interest to you}
|
||
|
||
In addition to my dual degree, I have gained experience in structural analysis and finite element analysis (FEA) through various projects, including a digital twin project using Ansys and a composite material analysis using Patran. My familiarity with simulation tools such as Ansys, as well as programming skills in Python, Rust, and MATLAB, makes me well-equipped to handle the technical challenges of this internship.
|
||
|
||
Currently, I am conducting a bibliographic study on the dynamic response of carbon-epoxy composites with a viscoelastic layer, which has strengthened my understanding of material behavior under dynamic loading conditions—an area I know is critical to naval vulnerability studies. My analytical mindset and attention to detail, combined with my project management skills, will allow me to contribute effectively to the innovative work being done at Damen Naval.
|
||
|
||
Moreover, I am passionate about shipbuilding, particularly military vessels, and I am deeply committed to enhancing safety on board Navy ships. Damen Naval’s focus on improving vessel survivability aligns perfectly with my technical skills and career aspirations.
|
||
|
||
\section{Conclusion}
|
||
|
||
I would be thrilled to join Damen Naval and contribute to the next generation of naval vessel vulnerability technology. I am available for an interview at your convenience and am eager to discuss how my background, skills, and passion for naval engineering can benefit your team.
