Have you realized how everyone is always talking about FEA as the ultimate weapon to solve any engineering problem? In one direction, that’s true, FEA is very powerful… but there are also some dangers, and no one is talking about them.
4 essential steps to solve FEA problems like a pro
Being able to solve FEA problems is a skill, and this skill is trained by knowing the correct process to solve an FEA problem. Those steps are extremely important and if you learn how to develop correctly your thinking to assess each of these steps correctly, you will be able to become very quickly an […]
Introduction to Linear and Nonlinear Buckling Analysis
Buckling is a dangerous phenomenon which can cause sudden failure of the structure, leading to potential economic or even life losses. It is therefore important to understand the buckling behaviors if the design involves slender structures bearing compressive load, that is commonly encountered in large steel structures of marine & offshore, mining and construction industries. […]
CAD Model: Why meshing fails?
CAD model Your model is not meshed properly or the mesher cannot even complete the meshing? This kind of problem happens to everyone, even the most skilled in FEA. Nowadays, CAD models tend to have too many details and so it is difficult for an analyst to simplify those models enough to get a proper […]
When do you actually need Simulation is product design?
product design FEA can be used mainly in 3 ways in product design: – As a tool for designers to help to create the right design -As a tool to check the design -As a tool to check the reasons why a product fails Designing a product is a challenge Designing a product is not […]
How to face a singularity error?
If you ever started to do linear static FEA Analysis, you probably encountered the following singularity error: ERROR [2007]: FACTORIZATION FAILED DUE TO A SINGULARITY AT TRANSLATION-X OF NODE 111 (RANK=5262) What is the cause of this singularity error? This error is generated when matrix decomposition cannot progress any further due to the presence of singularities. […]
