Freebody Analysis of a Truss
creates the geometry for a simple truss and perform a freebody analysis on the truss.
PAT322: Advanced Engineering Analysis with MSC/PATRAN Advanced FEA
Linear and Nonlinear Analysis of a Cantilever Beam
presents the concepts and limitations of linear and nonlinear analysis. Perform and compare small and large displacement analyses on a cantilever beam model.
Element Selection Study
re-runs the cantilever beam you analyzed in Lesson 1 with different Finite Elements. You will study the effectiveness of various 1-D, 2-D and 3-D elements in linear as well as non-linear analysis.
Linear Bifurcation Buckling Analysis of Thin Plate:
A thin plate is modeled under a static load that exceeds the critical load. Perform a bifurcation buckling analysis.
Transient Response of a Rocket
develops a finite element model that represents an axial force (thrust) applied to a rocket over time. Perform a
linear transient analysis
of the model and compare results to analytic calculations.
