Costly testing and verification, complex geometries, design improvements and troubleshooting are challenging – especially if you do not have the necessary expertise, experience and tools.
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is the best tool for predicting static and dynamic responses, such as stresses, strains and displacements, in complex structures, such as propellers, gearing wheels, couplings, shafts and turbo machinery.
That’s why we leverage FEA to provide reliable advice on:
- Design and design optimisation
- Design verification
- Troubleshooting and damage investigation
We utilise a diverse range of advanced Finite Element software to provide comprehensive results. These include ANSYS, IDEAS, ABAQUS and SESAM – giving us the ability and expertise to perform linear and non-linear stress analyses in static or dynamic conditions.
Our Finite Element dynamic analysis includes axial, lateral and torsional vibration analyses, enabling us to provide root cause analysis and a comprehensive service. Thanks to our extensive knowledge base, we know which calculations to perform and how to interpret these for a reliable solution.
We also offer physical tests performed in our own metallurgical laboratory to verify the material data and investigate the root cause of failure modes.
