fe-safe Durability Analysis Software for FEM - 2

Industry is putting increasing pressure on manufacturers to use less material to deliver lightweight but stronger components,fewer warranty and recall costs and all in less time. > Many companies use advanced finite element analysis to calculate design stresses, but the fatigue analysis is often still done by manuallypicking stress points for spread-sheet analysis. This is time consuming and unreliable because its easy to miss failure locations.Component validation by fatigue testing a prototype design in the test lab is time-consuming. If the prototype fails prematurely,a costly,...

can predict fatigue lives from a range of loading types: Single load time history applied to a linear elastic finite element model Օ Multiple time histories of loading superimposed in (more than 4000load histories can be applied) Sequence of FEA stresses (elastic or elastic-plastic, linear or non-linear) Օ Modal superimposition PSD loading, block loading test programmes, rainflow cycle matrices Օ Effects of forming or assembly stresses can be includedincludes a powerful simple-to-use batch command system,with on-line parametric variation for sensitivityђ studies.Standard analyses can be set...

is a revolutionary new mesh-insensitive structural stressmethod developed by that allows engineers to predict failure locations and calculatefatigue lives for welded joints and structures. It is available from Safe Technology as an add-on moduleto , and allows both welded and non-welded areas to be analysed in a single operation and displayed as a single fatigue life contour plot. has been developed in partnership withSerco Assurance to assess creep damage, fatigue damageand creep-fatigue interactions. creep-fatigue algorithms have been successfully applied to nuclear power plant...
