Synopsis

Written by design engineers for design engineers, Building Better Products with Finite Element Analysis encourages readers to focus on integrating simulation into the design process. Novel in its approach, this book presents practical guidelines for using FEA to solve real-world design challenges such as setting boundaries, contact points between parts, sheetmetal weldments, plastic components, plus other commonly encountered problems. Emphasis is on success-proven concepts utilizing the latest technologies and methodologies.Throughout its 624 highly readable pages, Building Better Products with Finite Element Analysis underscores the cost- and time-savings benefits to be gained from integrating FEA into modeling techniques from the outset of the design process. A final chapter highlights trends and offer predictions for the future of FEA.
