FEA
Aligned CAE creates, solves and post-processes FE models that
range from simple single constraint load conditions to complex
transient destructive crash simulations. Aligned CAE has extensive expertise in the practical
application FEA, providing our clients valuable solutions to their
performance, cost and mass challenges. Aligned CAE utilizes high end 3D and 2D FEA
simulation tools for the development of structures to our client's
requirements.
Potential tools include (but are not limited to)
- Nastran
- Ansys
- LS-Dyna
- Abaqus
The potential applications of FEA are to extensive to list here.
Some applications of FEA analysis include:
- Stress/Strain analysis
- Modal Anaylsys
- Fatigue failure prediction
- Crash Simulation
- Buckling
The use of FEA to predict and visualize the behavior of structures in a steady state or transient scenario provides a powerful understanding in the behavior of these systems. FEA is an extremely powerful tool when used with a focus on cost and mass reduction whilst maintaining performance.
