Description

This course will teach you the basic concepts of Finite Element Analysis and the general analysis process.

You will learn how to perform a simple static analysis on a single part using finite elements, and how to produce the final report of the analysis results.

Objectives

Upon completion of this course you will be able to:

-       Understand why, when, and how to use Finite Element Analysis

-       Use different element types and shapes to mesh a part

-       Apply clamp, slider, and iso-static restraints

-       Apply force, moment, and displacement loads

-       Compute the static analysis for a single part

-       Visualize the images of the analysis results and produce the analysis reports

-       Refine existing meshes to produce more accurate results

Prerequisites

Students attending this course should be familiar with the fundamentals of CATIA V5
