Fatigue Design Philosophy
As we know fatigue is very important term in engineering and which if not studied will leads to failure of structure and causes fatal accident. Hence, design In this blog, […]
Read moreWhat is Fatigue Analysis ? Stages of Fatigue Analysis
Fatigue is the Initiation, formation and propagation of cracks in a material due to cyclic loads. The failure occurs due to the cyclic nature of the load which causes microscopic […]
Read moreWhat is Translational Joint ?
Translational Joint is a type of joint which allows one part to translate along a vector in respect of another part. The parts can only translate, not rotate, in respect […]
Read moreWhat is Fixed Joint ?
As the name suggests, fixed joint fixes or locks two parts so that they cannot move or rotate with respect to each other. It has zero degrees of freedom for […]
Read moreTypes of Joint in FEA
What is Joint in FEA ? In general, when we thought of the types of joints the most probable answer came across are; joints in our human bodies (such as […]
Read moreWhat is Frictionless Support ?
Frictionless Support It is a type of support used to constrained degrees of freedom in normal directions. This support or boundary condition is used to prevent one or more flat […]
Read moreWhat is Elastic Support ? Difference between Spring & Elastic Support ?
Elastic Support: An Elastic Support defines an elastic foundation between the selected faces of a part or assembly and the ground. The Elastic Support is based on a Foundation Stiffness, […]
Read moreWhat is fixed support ? What is Displacement ?
Fixed Supports ‘Fixed support’ means fix or constraints all degrees of freedom of the selected entity. Fixed supports are the most widely used support type in FE analysis. As we […]
