Using FEM simulations, we analyze the strength, deformation, vibration behavior, and other mechanical stresses of your components and structures. From static to dynamic, linear to nonlinear, and thermal analyses—we have the right method for your challenge.
By using state-of-the-art simulation tools in combination with our experienced engineers, we can provide you with insight into how a component will perform even before the first prototypes are built. This computer simulation saves you the trouble of time-consuming testing and helps you reach your goal faster.
Supporting documentation is verifiable, and expenditures and assumptions are reported separately. All standards and guidelines
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a numerical method based on solving systems of differential equations. It enables the solution of diverse problems for complex geometries. For this purpose, the component is discretized, meaning it is divided into small elements. The physical behavior of these elements is defined by shape functions.
Das physikalische Verhalten dieser Elemente wird mit Ansatzfunktionen beschrieben.
Resulting stresses and deformations are calculated based on the applied loads. This allows us to identify the root causes of component failure (e.g., local stress concentrations, unwanted plastic deformation) and develop targeted design solutions.
A finite element simulation can reveal oversizing or structural weaknesses under a given load. The results help optimize the component to reduce weight in areas of lower stress.
The Finite Element Method (FEM) allows for the determination of temperature distribution in components under thermal load. This temperature distribution can induce thermal stresses and deformations.
Structural vibrations manifest as acoustic radiation; furthermore, excessive mechanical stresses can occur due to resonance effects. Frequency analysis can be used to identify these critical resonances.
When facing challenges with bolted joints or sealing issues, we are here to support you—not only with FEA calculations but also with decades of experience.
In addition to static strength, we ensure your product offers fatigue strength and operational durability. We identify critical areas and derive constructive design improvements.
Simulating dynamic systems allows us to determine the forces resulting from a prescribed motion. Conversely, we can calculate the resulting dynamics and forces under applied loads. Excessive loads can lead to damage in bearings and joints, as well as cause large, unwanted deformations. Combining such dynamic analyses with structural strength calculations helps you significantly extend the service life of stressed components.
We offer qualified, individual and free consulting during the entire project including detailed explanation and interpretation of the results. Because we care about your success, we always go one step further and sometimes solve problems you didn't even know existed.
