Stress Analysis ....
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) ....
Plastic Design Solutions Ltd perform Finite Element Analysis (FEA), commonly referred to as Stress Analysis as part of our suite of Design Services.
Stress Analysis / FEA
Stress Analysis can aid the designer in a number of ways:
- Assessment of Component Performance
- Highlighting Areas of Weakness at the Design Stage
- Design Optimisation
- Failure Analysis / Problem Solving
- Stress, Strain and Deflection Calculations
- Fatigue Life Estimate
- Thermal Analysis
Optimisation
FEA can be integrated into the design process to optimise the part or product in terms of weight, cost, ease of manufacture, mechanical stiffness and strength, vibration (natural frequency) amongst others.
Failure Analysis / Problem Solving
Failure of parts can be investigated using FEA to determine the underlying failure mode and help to re-design the part to improve performance.
