Finite Element Analysis and Optimization

The Finite Element Analysis is a powerful engineering analysis and has been widely used in engineering since 1950. The course “Finite Element Analysis and Optimization” is a 6 weeks comprehensive programme for fresh mechanical engineers who are aspiring to build their career as CAE Expert in product manufacturing domain

This training presents the theory and applications of the Finite Element Method using ANSYS/HYPERWORKS. ANSYS Mechanical / HYPERWORKS are the FEA tools that are widely used across the manufacturing domain for analyzing and solving complex mechanical problems. These tools are used to predict the behaviour of the components and sub-systems in the manufacturing and real-world environments. These soft wares globally supports engineering simulation solutions by delivering high-quality products developed in lesser time through more information-based process. This course teaches FEM concepts and tool use in an integrated fashion.

FOCUS AREAS:

• Basics of Finite Element Methods (FEM)
• Basic & Advanced Solid Modeling
• Hands-on Training on ANSYS and HYPERWORKS
• Method of Import and align the geometry

DESIGN FOR ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING

Additive manufacturing technology acquires significance in the manufacturing industry for enabling product making as end to end solutions without any design boundaries for both manufacturing and assembly. It allows engineers to accomplish more than what they would through traditional manufacturing techniques. Hence many stakeholders in manufacturing industry are increasingly incorporating additive manufacturing technology in their low volume production.

3D printing technology penetrates new horizons, industries are confronted with the primary challenge of employing skilled workforce to use this technology. There is a dearth in finding skilled technicians/engineers having the knowhow of additive manufacturing.
