FEA Concepts for Engineers

June 1, 2007

This is the old way                                      -                                                       This is the new way

 

Course Description

The speed and power of today’s computers have allowed the development of software that can solve highly sophisticated engineering problems on your PC. These tools use advanced numerical methods to solve complex structural, fluid flow, electromagnetic and heat transfer problems in 2 and 3 dimensions. To stay ahead of the curve today’s engineers must understand and be able to utilize these advanced tools. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is one such tool that enables modeling of complex systems and advanced analysis of the physical forces influencing these systems.

This short course will focus on the basic understanding of structural FEA methods, the fundamentals behind it, and its application. Attendees will receive hands-on experience with ANSYS FEA software, applying FEA methods in the classroom. As part of the course each attendee will receive the student version of ANSYS ED v9.0 CD to take home.
A complete list of other PE credit courses, course descriptions, and requirements are listed here.

Interested ASME student members can put their names on a waiting list prior to May 16, 2007. Students on the wait list will be signed up for the course on and after May 16th, subject to space availability. If more than 35 people register, a 2nd Session will be offered.
