FEA BEYOND BASICS: NONLINEAR ANALYSIS
Familiarity or experience with FEA equivalent to or as covered in the Finite Element Analysis for Design Engineers web seminar or on- demand course is recommended.
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) has been an indispensable tool for design simulation for several decades but this wide spread use has been limited to simple types of analyses. Relatively recently, more advanced analyses have given easy to use interfaces enabling design engineers to simulate problems formerly reserved for analysts. This course targets FEA users wishing to explore those advanced analysis capabilities. The course demonstrates how to move past the ubiquitous linear structural analysis and solve structural nonlinear problems characterized by nonlinear material, large displacements, buckling or nonlinear connectors. The discussion helps you identify, set up and solve complex nonlinear problems and as well as use results of nonlinear analysis to support the product design process. LEARNING OBJECTIVES By connecting with this course, you will be able to: • Identify a need for a nonlinear structural analysis • Identify the types of nonlinearities • Employ correct problem definition and solution strategy • Select applicable modeling techniques • Assess and implement results of nonlinear analysis understanding of FEA but need to elevate its use to an advanced level to predict product behavior more closely. CONTENT HIGHLIGHTS • Modal Analysis and Linear Buckling Analysis • Analogies and differences between modal analysis with pre-stress linear buckling analysis • Linear buckling analysis as an entry to nonlinear analysis • Structural stability • Nonlinear Geometry Analysis • Large displacement • Stress stiffening/softening effect • Force and displacement boundary conditions • Contact Analysis • Contact; Interference; Bolt connectors WHO SHOULD ATTEND Design engineers who have a foundational
