Structural-mechanical simulation and optimisation

With the help of sub-modelling technology, it is possible to examine stress concentration at a notch with very small dimensions compared with the global structure very exactly.
Sub-model to examine stress concentration at a notch
Realistic contact conditions between different system components (e.g. contact between the shaft and bearing during a crankshaft fatigue analysis) can be considered and computed with high accuracy.
Furthermore, temperature effects and highly non-linear material and geometrical behaviour, (e.g. viscoelasticity or plasticity, major strain and distortion) can be simulated in structural analysis. 		Stress distribution in an piston
Segment of a double-hull fluid tank Buckling of thin-walled structures or the displacement behaviour of boundary walls of fluid tanks can also be investigated.

An examination of complex load cases, realistic contact conditions, temperature effects and non-linear material and geometrical properties during a finite element analysis leads to a very accurate and reliable estimation of the real structural behaviour.
