Where to Begin with Finite Element Analysis

Finite Element Analysis (FEA) helps you identify and resolve potential design failures prior to manufacturing, in turn helping to reduce the cost of design and manufacturing. In this session, we discuss the testing and validation of a design using FEA. 

In this Productivity Training session, we will walk through the following:

  • Introduction to Finite Element Analysis (FEA)
  • Understanding elements and meshing
  • Overview of analysis types in Inventor and Nastran In-CAD
  • Interpreting results of an FEA study
  • Verification and Validation of results
  • Using FEA to make design decisions
