What is Damping and why is it useful?

What is Damping? I am starting with a big question today :) …and to answer this question, we have to understand a few things about dynamic analysis first… Because only a part moving in some way experiences damping… Damping is basically an attenuation of this movement due to some kind of friction If you hadn’t […]

What is FEA modal analysis? | Learn the basics about it

Modal analysis is, along with linear static analysis, one of the 2 most common types of FE analysis. If you don’t know about those, you’ll have to review your fea basics. That’s what we’ll do here! In this short article, I’ll talk about: What is modal analysis Why it is important to know about it […]

Steady State VS Transient State FE Analysis

  you are wondering what is the relation between a Showerhead and FEA Analysis ? if you look at the world around you and you understand the physics, you will always see some Mechanical or Thermal behavior everywhere… at least, I am (let me know if it is not normal…) I chose this simple example […]
