Description
Welcome Back to the Finite Element Analysis World!
Let me first congratulate you on your interest in improving your level in this
fantastic field
which will
empower your professional career
to the next level.
As we were reviewing in previous courses, after my years of experience, I could experience all the benefits for different industries when they use the
Finite Element Method (FEM)
during the development process.
They produce
better and efficient designs
that save time and, most importantly, save
MONEY
.
This is a fact: The
demand
of FEA professionals is
continuously increasin
g, so we need to encourage people to join us in this field.
Therefore, I designed previous courses to take you from a complete beginner in
FEA
to a confident
simulation professional
, equipped with
all the essential skills
. Moving then to
more advanced techniques
in Contact Interactions and Bolted Connections.
You will find these courses in my Udemy's Profile:
Finite Element Analysis. SolidWorks Simulation. RealProjects
Finite Element Analysis. SolidWorks Simulation. P2: CONTACTS
Finite Element Analysis. SolidWorks Simulation. P3: BOLTS
And now, we are going to continue exploring more
advanced models
that will require the use of
advanced techniques in FEA
.
In this specific case, you will learn how to manage with
WELDING CONNECTIONS
But the important thing here is that I am not going to just show you what clicks you need to do to define a Weld in FEA.
Here we are going to explore each parameter you need to know and calculate to be ensure your welds have the
proper configuration
.
And, achieve a good behavior of your FEA Simulation models.
Throughout the course, you will master the following techniques:
UNDERSTAND WHAT IS A WELDING CONNECTION IN FEA
How connectos in FEA save us a huge amount of time and computational cost
Main types of EDGE WELD CONNECTIONS in FEA.
FILLET DOUBLE-SIDED
FILLET SINGLE-SIDED
GROOVE DOUBLE-SIDED
GROOVE SINGLE-SIDED
What is the purpose of each of these Edge Welds Connectors configuration and when to use them
Simulate Real cases where you will apply each of them.
THE OTHER PROCESS OF WELDING
SPOT WELD CONNECTORS
Main Industries where this process of welding is used.
FEA limints to simulate Spot Weld Connectors.
WELD THROAT DIMENSION
Explanation
Calculation and Definition
Interpreting
CONVERGENCE ISSUES.
You will face new problems that you can find when defining your FEA model due to:
Complex Geometry
Advance tools in FEA
Combination of Solid and Shell Elements
Meshing and Solver requirements.
REAL SCENARIOS
. We will apply all that concepts and knowledge to more complete projects.
PROJECT 01
: Flat Back Elbow
PROJECT 02
: Forklift Front Axle
PROJECT 02
: Car B-Pillar
We will start from the easiest definition and go through all the cases as we progress during this course.
Showing you how to
speed up the process
of definition and increase your efficiency by very cool
METHODOLOGIES.
I want to practice with you how to analyse each of the
REAL SCENARIOS
to know how to respond when you find different
problems in your future projets
.
In addition, I will guide you to calculate the
proper parameters
to have the
correct configuration
for your welds and so your project will have the correct behaviour to be analysed.
As always, the key is to
LEARN BY DOING
and that is exactly what we are going to do here.
With all the examples that we are going to review, you will obtain a
CRITERIA & CAPABILITIES
to manage with scenarios during your future projects with confidence.
So,
Get ready to continue exploring
advanced problems in FEA
.
See you inside!
Who this course is for:
Engineers, technicians and 3D designers who want to increase their capabilities in the FEA World
