Linear and non-Linear Static Analysis

Linear Analysis

Before performing advanced analysis, a linear static analysis is required. The main objective of linear static analysis are:

  • Preliminary design
  • Design sensitivity and optimization problems
  • Model validation

Our computational capabilities allow us to upload and analyze models with over a million nodes; models are prepared for analysis with advanced software packages:

  • Nastran
  • Abaqus
  • Ansys

We take into account:

  • Linear loads
  • Linear restrains and constains
  • Temperature loads
  • Simplified models for contact and tribology problems

Non-Linear Analysis

Non-linear analysis include:

  • Geometric non-linearity
  • Material non-linearity
  • Contact problems

Our expertise allow us to always build the most suitable models for each non-linear problem; simplifications are often required due to the complexity of these kinds of analyses. Advanced software packages are used:

  • Nastran
  • Abaqus
  • Ansys

We take into account:

  • Non-linear loads
  • Material non-linearity
    • Stress-strain behavior
    • Creep
