Back to original languageAbout Mika Ilou
Mechanical Calculation Engineer who automates the design-manufacturing cycle with AI.
For 5 years, I designed, simulated, and sized industrial structures at EUROPELEC: turbine rotor, hydraulic floats, ventilation ramps. Each step manually: modeling, meshing, simulating, post-processing, writing, creating drawings. This repetition gave me a precise map of the workflow — and the conviction that it can be divided by 30.
Today, I industrialize everything:
→ Parametric CAD (Python + SolidWorks API)
→ PyAnsys-driven FEM/CFD Simulation
→ Automatic calculation report (PowerPoint)
→ Dimensioned 2D drawings for manufacturing
→ Bayesian optimization and ML models to predict results
Concrete result: a workflow that used to take 5 hours by hand is now done in 10 minutes with ACÆflow, my proprietary 8-step pipeline.
Stack: Python · PyAnsys · SolidWorks API · ANSYS Mechanical/Fluent · Claude Code (Skills, MCP, Agents) · ChatGPT
Available for freelance missions — calculation engineering, simulation R&D, CAE workflow industrialization.
