|  This
course provides hands on experience in performing
crack calculations using BEASY Version 10. BEASY
provides the data for Damage Tolerance calculations
and Virtual Fracture Testing to help identify
fracture problems during design and not during
testing.
The course workshops include,
how to automatically add a crack into models
to compute fracture mechanics data, how to use
the interfaces to FEM: PATRAN, ABAQUS, ANSYS
and NASTRAN and also how to zoom in to critical
areas of FEM models
The course teach's participants
the modern numerical methods of fracture mechanics
and provide handson problem solving during the
workshops.
|
Flexible Modelling |
| |
The BEASY crack modelling
software provides a flexible solution to engineers
who need to consider how cracks affect the
integrity and durability of structures and
components. Models can be developed to simulate
cracks either by automatic extraction of data
from FEM models or by the construction of
detailed multi-site damage models.
On this course you will learn
how to use the real geometry, loading and
materials to provide a highly accurate basis
for life prediction. The results also include
the effects of load redistribution, multiple
cracks, true crack path and crack shape modelling.
The course will also introduce
new capabilities recently introduced to predict
the behaviour of cracks in stiffened panels.
