Mrs. Wiede Cutshall started Cutshall Consulting in 2004, following sixteen years of structural engineering activity, primarily on aircraft modification and repair programs. Her prior experience includes time with NASA/Johnson Space Center, Southwest Research Institute, and the University of Texas (as a Graduate Research Assistant) where she provided analytical and experimental support to a wide variety of programs, including:

• Aircraft flutter analyses
• Spacecraft dynamic analyses and modal testing
• Acoustic modeling of trains and other structures
• Detailed finite element modeling of various components for impact analyses, static structural analyses and crack growth analyses
• Shock, vibration and other environmental factors testing

During extended periods with Aircraft Design Services, Inc., and The Dee Howard Company, she performed structural analysis and data package review in support of aircraft certification programs.

As an engineering consultant, she has focused primarily on structural analysis of aircraft modifications, but is also actively involved in aircraft certification, structural testing of aircraft interior monuments and instruction in use of specialized analytical tools/techniques.

Wiede graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a BS in Aerospace Engineering (1988), is a registered professional engineer in the state of Texas, and holds FAA Designated Engineering Representative Authorization for 14 CFR Parts 23 and 25.
