Benefits of the Finite Element Method

General, Multiphysics Modeling, Simulation, Thought Leadership / Jessica Rosenberg

Computational simulation is a powerful tool for solving complex engineering problems that involve the finite element method (FEM). FEM is a numerical technique that divides a domain into smaller elements and approximates the governing equations at each element. By using computational simulation, engineers can perform FEM analysis faster, more accurately, and more efficiently than using

Finite Element Analysis and the Benefits of Computational Simulation

General, Multiphysics Modeling, Simulation, Thought Leadership / Jessica Rosenberg

Finite element analysis (FEA) is a method of solving complex engineering problems involving structures, fluids, heat transfer, and other physical phenomena. FEA divides the problem domain into smaller and simpler parts called finite elements, and then applies mathematical equations to describe the behavior of each element and the interactions among them. FEA can find approximate

How Not to Miss the Boat with Multiphysics Simulation

Multiphysics Modeling, Simulation / Kyle Koppenhoefer

Multiphysics simulation is a complex, powerful computational technique that lets you explore all the real-world physical interactions that a complex product may encounter during use including fluid dynamics, electromagnetism, acoustics, and optics. When you’re designing and testing a product with a low to no error margin, Multiphysics simulation is extremely accurate. Take for example the
