Did you ever experience Design Failure?

Did you ever experience Design Failure?

Few months ago, I performed a webinar about Design Optimization and it was one of the most successful webinar I ever performed. Hundreds of engineers registered and participated to this live event (I received more than 30 questions about design optimization directly to my inbox). –> Recording is available here if you are interested. Not […]

How do I know if my results are accurate?

January 18, 2016 by Cyprien 4 Comments

That’s a question that I receive very frequently, and that’s my usual answer: The result you get are accurate according to your input parameters if you observe the convergence of the solution. BUT don’t forget your output results will always depend on your model and your input parameters. If the input is wrong, you cannot […]

Get The Proper Mesh Density

Get The Proper Mesh Density

Every engineer doing FEA Analysis probably knows that increasing the number of elements is supposed to improve the accuracy of the solution. This is true. But, this also create some problems, because if you are perfectionist (I know a lot of engineers are), you may be thinking something like: “If accuracy increases with the number […]

Analyze the Fluid Flow inside a Choke Valve

Today, I decided to write a post to explain simply how to perform an Analysis of the Fluid Flow inside a Choke Valve. This is a great exercise for beginners in CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) so I hope this example will prove extremely useful for you! The Software I am using is midas NFX CFD: You […]

Open Discussion: loads physical understanding in FEA

October 29, 2015 by Cyprien 1 Comment

Yesterday, I got this message from an FEA engineer in Norway, Valeriy Shepenkov: My biggest challenge and the biggest challenge for most in the finite elements business is the loads physical understanding and their application in the FEA software. If you could provide some advice on how to effectively single out the essential loads and […]
