Über Bryant
VERMATIQ GmbH provides structural engineering support for wind turbine blade projects, with a focus on design, FEM/FEA, composite structures, bolted joints, damage assessment, manufacturing deviations and certification-related evaluations.
Our work is led by Bryant-William Neira-Suarez, Co-founder and Chief Engineer for Wind Turbine Blades. He brings more than 17 years of international experience in rotor blade structures, including almost nine years at DNV Renewables Certification as Senior Engineer for wind turbine blades and FRP composites. During this period, he certified more than 200 wind turbine components and more than 50 wind turbine blades for European and Chinese OEMs and acted as key expert for FEA-related matters.
We support OEMs, certification bodies and engineering teams when structural questions must be answered clearly, technically and in line with international wind energy requirements.
Typical support includes:
Structural design and redesign of wind turbine blades
FEM/FEA modelling, review, post-processing and plausibility checks
Composite laminate and FRP component assessment
Bolted joints, root connection topics and load transfer concepts
Damage analysis, repair assessment and manufacturing deviation evaluation
Certification support and review of strength documentation
Engineering tools, automation workflows and calculation software for rotor blade projects
VERMATIQ combines OEM design experience, certification background and independent consulting practice. We work with ANSYS Workbench, APDL, ANSYS ACP, RFEM, Abaqus and in-house engineering tools such as BLADEsign, FEMext, WT-RB-Joint and COMPOSITE.
