However, there are some assumptions and conditions that you have to be aware of before using the power of linear static analysis. Ignoring them could prove very dangerous.
This is a free video course to teach you the method and theory that is used in linear static analysis.
What you will learn in details:
- Why linear static helps tremendously to check product design
- The fundamental assumptions you should absolutely know
- Some simple theory that tells everything in one simple formula
- How to constrain and load your model correctly
- How to use contacts between parts and the traps to avoid
- How to go from linear static to a more advanced analysis

By reading your blog on FEA for all, I really found the missing piece
When I first saw your blog on FEA for all, I thought it was about FEA tutorials and promoting some softwares but only when I started reading your articles on your blog, I could find myself in a position where I found that you wanted to explain FEA to all in a simple way. I was so fascinated with FEA during my 2nd year of graduate studies where I saw those beautiful colorful pictures. But later when i started learning FEA i found it much difficult understanding those equations etc and later when i started using different FEA softwares it was something I felt lacking in those. I did a lot of research and analysis by reading books watching tutorials and found something was missing in all those things trying to teach FEA. Until I read your blog on FEA for all I really found the missing piece. After say 6 longs years of learning FEA still i cant say I am expert by I am now able to understand FEA quite well and a Greater Thanks to you for that. Your blog had a great contribution in it.
The service your videos provided for me is incalculable so: THANK YOU
First of all, Cyprien, I wish to thank you for being there for me and my doubts.
Many have been dissipated over the last days by feaforall material... in what has been a successful re-initiation into CAE. My goal is to find out whether it is possible for a CAD Designer like me, that did CAD for satellite integrated scientific-electronics like BERM(BepiBolombo) and MFS (Alphasat)Radiation Monitor, to dig deeper into CAE and if possible add some capabilities to my skillset and not only to apply these good practices and corrections to the model, to learn about what is going on and I must say your tutorials became central to the process of learning this with solid basis while using open source software.
It began like for many by dabbling along with Solidworks's SolverPost processing capabilities mostly due to its user friendliness... only to get rapidly frustrated because it didn't tell me much I could trust : it was mostly GIGO. Any responsible person has to resist these easy to get pretty pict's from the black box. On the other hand, as I discovered fast on OpenFoam, and then on in Aster... no pictures came out even on solid efforts, and when they did I faced the same stoppage like a donkey looking at a Palace...

Very sincere regards from Porto!
