PII
can evaluate the structural behavior of a part or assembly to any
given operating conditions. After creating a three dimensional model
of the part, PII can simulate the structural loads and constraints
on the model, then predict the models response to those conditions.
The loads can be either static (constant force or pressure) or
dynamic (seismic or time dependent loads). FEA Structural Analysis
can be used to design components to meet our customer's stress
limits or assist in determining the cause of component failures.
MODAL
ANALYSIS
In
addition to determining the structural response of a part or
assembly to a given set of loads and constraints, PII can calculate
the structural natural frequencies of these components. FEA-Modal
analysis is used in conjunction with "Experimental Modal
Analysis" to assist in the resolution of field vibration
problems. The 3-D model can be calibrated to match the results of
the "Experimental Modal Analysis" and then modified as
necessary to eliminate the problem structural natural
frequencies.
THERMAL
ANALYSIS
Another
tool PII has to assist our customer's with their analytical needs is
the simulation of the behavior of parts or assemblies to various
thermal loads and boundary conditions. This analysis can be used to
determine combined stress levels in a boiler feed pump due to
internal pressure and system temperature transients.
