Overview
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a cornerstone of modern engineering design and analysis. It enables engineers to predict the performance of complex systems under various conditions with remarkable precision. Students who gain this skill set will get the hands-on experience employers seek.
Whether you are designing mechanical components, simulating thermal systems, or optimizing their structural performance, mastering FEA is crucial for tackling real-world engineering challenges. In this Foundational Fridays webinar, we will cover tips and tricks for FEA, including core principles, practical techniques, best practices, and strategies to enhance your simulations.
This session will equip you with the insights and confidence needed for effective simulation practices, from setting up models and selecting appropriate meshing strategies to validating results and avoiding common pitfalls. Perfect for mechanical engineering students, this webinar bridges theory with practical application, ensuring you are ready to leverage FEA in academic projects and obtain valuable industry-relevant skills.
What attendees will learn
Attendees will leave with actionable insights to improve their FEA skills, helping them tackle complex problems with confidence. We’ll cover:
- Pre-processing: model setup (CAD), boundary conditions, and meshing
- Post-processing: result validation and interpretation
- Simulation best practices
Who should attend
