Webinar on Engineering Analysis, Simulation and Virtual Test Software in the Design of Heavy Machinery
Noran Engineering, Inc. (NEi) will host a webinar on “Using Engineering Analysis, Simulation, and Virtual Test Software for Heavy Machinery Design” on Tuesday June 17, 2008 at 10:30-11:30 am EDT. The webinar is intended for manufacturers of heavy equipment and machinery found in industries like earth moving and offshore oil platforms that are challenged by keeping design and manufacturing costs low while maintaining a competitive edge in the global market. Major manufactures have been early adopters of finite element analysis (FEA) and simulation software in their engineering process because of the cost savings, improved quality, promotion of safety, and faster time to market.
Among the specific benefits realized when applying FEA into an engineering environment are:
- Ability to explore more “What-If” scenarios
- Create shorter development cycles
- Design for strength and increased performance
- Reduced the number of physical prototypes
The one-hour webinar will introduce the ease-of-use capabilities of creating digital prototypes with the FEMAP® pre/post processor and NEi Nastran robust solvers. Specific topics that will be covered include:
- Assemblies – Faster and easier analysis through Automated Contact Generation (ACG™)
- Dynamics – Vibration, mode shapes and frequency response
- Material Selection – Examine material options to achieve cost objectives
