EW#830 provides stress analysis of fabricated structures and manufactured products, analysis of structures and products during the design phase, as well as after failure to determine causes of failure related to design flaws or environmental overload

Experience 
EW#830 has supported design and manufacturing, in the development of structures and manufactured products, since 1981. They have also accumulated extensive experience in analyzing products and structures operating in environments ranging from normal to extreme. EW#830 has analyzed structures and manufactured products ranging from relatively simple to very complex.

Also offered is EW#830 has analysis experience with most materials used to cast or fabricate structures and manufactured products. EW#830 also has experience with all types of analyses including all forms of stress, thermal, vibration, and fatigue analyses.

The development of accurate finite element models of your manufactured product or structure from engineering drawings or from electronic design data-files is also offered by EW#830. Design files, as well as design modification files and intermediate analysis result files, may be transmitted over the internet providing timely movement of design and analysis information.

EW#830 will collaborate with your engineering design department or your maintenance department to provide analysis support for on-going or periodic design projects. Their participation in your design process is to assist in creating products of minimum weight that meet all your design criteria, including all stress, vibration, and thermal specifications. Also, their involvement in your manufacturing process is to identify manufacturing or operating problems that are stress, vibration, or thermal based, and to guide corrective actions.

Additionally, EW#830 maintains Registered Analyst - Advanced Level by NAFEMS, to assist your design effort in conforming to ISO 9001 standards.

Analysis Programs
EW#830 will apply state-of-the-art analysis programs to the design of your structures and manufactured products.

ANSYS - A general purpose (large capability) finite element analysis program used for the analysis of linear and non-linear, thermal, and dynamic (vibration) response of structures and manufactured products.

MSC/NASTRAN - A general purpose (large capability) finite element analysis program used for the analysis of linear and nonlinear, and dynamic (vibration) responses of structures and manufactured products.

FEMAP - A finite element analysis pre- and post-processor, and analysis data conversion utility program.

Structural Testing
Complex analyses do not remove the need for prototype testing. The number of prototype tests can be reduced through analysis. Identification of critical regions of structures and products can be identified for testing purposes through analysis. Correlation of analyses with testing can provide assurance that the analyses provided quality response predictions. EW#830 has structural and product testing expertise consisting of instrumentation and evaluation of test results in testing structures and manufactured products.

Analysis Training
Applying sophisticated analysis procedures to the design of complex structures and manufactured products requires designers and analysts trained in accurate and effective analysis procedures. EW#830 has provided University courses and on-site training courses in the underlying theory and modeling techniques for effectively applying finite element analysis to the design of structures and manufactured products.

Integration of analysis into the design process - EW#830 has assisted design and manufacturing companies with integrating stress analysis procedures into their design processes. We have the experience with this integration, allowing companies to quickly establish analysis capabilities in their designs of structures and manufactured products.

Theoretical development - An understanding of the basic mathematics applied to field problems is essential to understanding the limitations and restrictions applicable to each type of analysis.

Modeling techniques - Effective modeling procedures requires years of training. Building effective analysis models that run quickly and yield accurate results must be a part of the structure or product development cycle to participate in today's rapidly changing markets.

Advanced analysis - EW#830 has successfully completed many complex nonlinear FEA analyses ranging from dynamic contact to elastic/plastic to hyperelastic analyses. EW#830 can assist your staff with learning how to apply these types of advanced analyses for the design of structures and manufactured products.
