Services|FEA & Simulation

It starts with a free body diagram to capture a snap shot of the maximum forces acting on the structure. After that we discover the best simulation methods to use and set up the files. Large problems with many features in large structures will be broken into fragmented simulations for efficiency. We have tangible knowledge in the field to compare the results with, and hand calculations on MathCAD software to keep things in check. The trials are run until we are satisfied with the results. The best tools and methods are applied and we guarantee the information to be within industry standards.

Study the effects of cyclic loading on product life.

  • Check the systems expected life or accumulated damage after a specified number of cycles.
  • Import load history data from real physical tests to define loading events.

Simulate vibration or buckling in your designs.

  • Examine how vibration or unstable modes can shorten equipment life and cause unexpected failures.
  • Assess the effects of load stiffening on frequency and buckling response.

Evaluate the effects of temperature on your design.

  • Study conduction, convection, and radiation heat transfer.
  • Determine thermal stresses due to temperature distributions and varying materials.

Validate process and task workflow with event based simulation.

  • Define motion studies based on model event and assembly actions.
  • Evaluate characteristics like actuator force and joint loads for motion optimization.
  • Gain greater control of model actuators with servomotors.

Validate your design with powerful structural analysis tools.

  • Evaluate forces and stress between contacting parts, including friction.
  • Apply bearing loads, forces, pressures and torques.
  • Optimize designs based on structure, motion, or geometry.
  • Use connectors or virtual fasteners to model bolts, pins, springs, and bearings.
  • Evaluate complex problems early in the design cycle with plane stress, plane strain, and axisymmetric linear static analysis.
