Course Overview
Welcome to our comprehensive two-day Nastran Finite Element Analysis (FEA) course. This intensive course is designed to equip engineers, analysts, and enthusiasts with the knowledge and practical skills needed to master Nastran FEA software for accurate and efficient structural analysis.
On the first day of our two-day Nastran Finite Element Analysis (FEA) course, participants will be introduced to the fundamental principles of Finite Element Analysis and gain an understanding of the Nastran FEA software. The day will focus on the preprocessing stage, covering essential tasks such as model setup and meshing techniques to create a well-defined analysis model. Participants will learn how to apply boundary conditions and constraints to accurately simulate real-world scenarios. Additionally, the course will cover material properties and element types to ensure precise and reliable analysis. The day will culminate with static analysis, where participants will apply loads and solve the analysis to obtain valuable insights into structural behaviour.
The second day of the course will dive into postprocessing, enabling participants to analyse and interpret the results obtained from their FEA simulations using Nastran software. Participants will learn about dynamic analysis, including modal and harmonic response analyses, to understand structural vibrations and resonances. The course will also cover buckling and stability analysis, critical for assessing structural safety and stability. Moving on to nonlinear analysis, participants will explore material and geometric nonlinearities to model real-world behaviour accurately. Advanced topics, such as contact analysis, optimisation, and composite materials, will be addressed to enhance the capabilities of participants in handling complex engineering challenges.
