Course Offerings and Schedule
DM 0626  
ADVANCED TOPICS IN FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS









COURSE OVERVIEW :
The course is addressed to design engineers who already use FEA as a design tool and would like to expand their range of FEA applications. It builds on problems discussed in DM 0612 Finite Element Analysis for Design Engineers.

The course reviews more advanced analysis problems and illustrates how they are addressed with FEA to simulate product behavior, reducing the need for physical prototypes. Non-linear static and dynamic analysis, linear vibrations, mechanism analysis and advanced modeling techniques are covered.

Course topics are illustrated hands-on examples using commercial FEA software SolidWorks Simulation. However, the course is not software specific and the acquired knowledge and skills are applicable to any FEA simulation software.
