INTRODUCTION
Finite element analysis (FEA) is the modeling of products and systems in a virtual
environment, for the purpose of finding and solving potential (or existing) structural or
performance issues. FEA is the practical application of the finite element method (FEM), which
is used by engineers and scientist to mathematically model and numerically solve very complex
structural, fluid, and multiphysics problems. FEA software can be utilized in a wide range of
industries, but is most commonly used in the aeronautical, biomechanical and automotive
industries.
A finite element (FE) model comprises a system of points, called nodes, which form
the shape of the design. Connected to these nodes are the finite elements themselves which form
the finite element mesh and contain the material and structural properties of the model, defining
how it will react to certain conditions. The density of the finite element mesh may vary
throughout the material, depending on the anticipated change in stress levels of a particular area.
Regions that experience high changes in stress usually require a higher mesh density than those
that experience little or no stress variation. Points of interest may include fracture points of
previously tested material, fillets, corners, complex detail, and high-stress areas.
FE models can be created using one-dimensional (1D beam), two-dimensional (2D shell) or
three-dimensional (3D solid) elements. By using beams and shells instead of solid elements, a
representative model can be created using fewer nodes without compromising accuracy. Each
modeling scheme requires a different range of properties to be defined, such as:

To simulate the effects of real-world working environments in FEA, various load types
can be applied to the FE model, including:
Nodal: forces, moments, displacements, velocities, accelerations, temperature and heat

flux
Elemental: distributed loading, pressure, temperature and heat flux
Acceleration body loads (gravity)
S
I
C
Types of analysis include:

Linear statics: linear analysis with applied loads and constraints that are static
Nonlinear statics and dynamics: effects due to contact (where one part of the model
comes into contact with another), nonlinear material definitions (plasticity, elasticity,
etc.) and large displacement (strains that exceed small displacement theory that limits a
linear analysis approach)
Normal modes: natural frequencies of vibration
Dynamic response: loads or motions that vary with time and frequency
Buckling: critical loads at which a structure becomes unstable
A
R
Heat transfer: conduction, radiation and phase change

Typical results calculated by the solver include:
Nodal displacements, velocities and accelerations
Elemental forces, strains and stresses

Benefits of FEA
FEA can be used in new product design, or to refine an existing product, to ensure that
the design will be able to perform to specifications prior to manufacturing. With FEA you can:
Predict and improve product performance and reliability
Reduce physical prototyping and testing
Evaluate different designs and materials
Optimize designs and reduce material usage
Femap Overview

Femap is an advanced engineering simulation software program that creates finite

element analysis models of complex engineering products and systems, and displays solution
results. Femap can virtually model components, assemblies or systems and determine the
behavioral response for a given operating environment.
Using Femaps digital simulation capabilities you can:
E
E
IN
Predict and improve product performance and reliability

Reduce time-consuming and costly physical prototyping and testing
Evaluate different designs and materials
Optimize your designs and reduce material usage
CAD-Independent
Femap is CAD-independent and can access geometry data from all major CAD systems
including CATIA, Pro/Engineer, NX, Solid Edge, SolidWorks and AutoCAD. Once imported
you can prepare the model for analysis using the geometry locator to identify and display
potentially troublesome entities, such as slivers, and either remove them completely with the
geometry cleanup tools or suppress them. Femap also offers a wealth of geometry creation and
modification functions so you can make necessary model changes in preparation for finite
element model creation.
Finite Element Modeling
The full finite element model with underlying data is fully exposed by Femap, allowing
you to view, create or modify entities directly. Femaps grouping, layering and visualization
tools help you to manage model display while creating and setting up the finite element model.
Femap includes specialized capabilities to help with modeling tasks including:
S
I
C
A
R
R
E
N
E
Mid-plane extraction of thin-walled structures to aid creation of more efficient and

accurate shell models
Weldment modeling that connects discrete solid welded parts together into a contiguous
model
Data surfaces that allow you to create complex loading conditions based on prior analysis
output for multi-physics applications
Finite Element Meshing

Femaps 3D solid and surface meshers are tuned to generate high-quality meshes,
providing well-shaped elements to ensure accurate results. Femap gives you full control over all
mesh generation parameters including mesh sizing, meshing of small features, growth factors,
short edge suppression, etc. With complex geometry, modification of the mesh is often required
in areas where greater accuracy is desired. For this situation Femaps Meshing Toolbox allows
you to interactively modify mesh sizing parameters on the underlying geometry, and see the
mesh update automatically. You can also view element quality feedback live while modifying
the mesh, to ensure that a high-quality finite element model is created.
G
E
L
L
Assembly Modeling
Femap with NX Nastran supports assembly modeling, including automatic contact
detection that determines the components initially in contact. The contact regions can be set to be
simply in contact (with or without friction) or glued together. The contact calculations performed
by NX Nastran are iterative and update during the solution, to take into account deformation
changes representing the true contact condition in the final results.
N
I
R
O
C
Other types of component assembly modeling techniques also supported include spotweld, fastener elements, and bolted joints with optional pre-loading.
E
E
Beam Modeling
Besides solid and shell element models Femap also supports beam modeling and
meshing. This technique allows models comprising long, slender components (for which a solid
meshing approach would create a large, unwieldy model) to be represented by one-dimensional
elements with associated properties.
IN
N
E
Model visualization is key to beam modeling, and with Femap you can view these
elements as solid components and include offsets. Femap features a section property editor
which includes a library of standard cross-section shapes. You can also define your own sections,
and the built-in section property calculator automatically determines the required properties.
R
E
Also available are full beam visualization and results display options including shear and
bending moment diagrams.
S
I
C
Composite Modeling
The use of composite materials in designs has increased significantly in recent years, and
Femap can help you model and postprocess results on composite structures. With Femaps a
laminate editor and viewer, you can update the laminate properties interactively as you create
and modify plies in the laminate.
A
R
We can also postprocess composite laminate results using Femaps global composite ply
feature, which allows you to view results on continuous plies through the structural model.
Solver Neutral
Femap is solver-neutral and provides in-depth pre- and postprocessing support for all of
the main commercial solvers on the market, including NX Nastran, Ansys, LS-DYNA, Abaqus
and TMG. You can take full advantage of the advanced analysis capabilities of these solvers
using Femaps comprehensive modeling and analysis support, particularly for dynamic,
geometric and material nonlinear, heat transfer and fluid flow analyses.
Postprocessing
A wealth of visualization capabilities help you view and interpret the results to quickly
understand the model behavior. Youll find everything you need to view and interpret the output
data, including:
G
E
L
L
Contour and criteria plots

Deformed shape animations
Dynamic cutting plane and iso-surfaces
Full output selection
XY plots
Free body diagrams and grid point force balance output
Time and frequency domain animations
Complete access to results data is provided through the Data Table pane, which you can
use to gather, sort and control the amount and type of data that is visible, to compile an
analysis report.
Scalable Simulation Solutions
The Velocity Series CAE products offer scalable solutions for design engineers in the
form of the CAD-embedded Solid Edge Simulation program, and Femap with NX Nastran for
CAE analysts.

The Femap with NX Nastran product line itself offers solution scalability, from the more general
simulation capabilities available in the base module to more advanced applications including
dynamics, optimization, advanced nonlinear, rotor dynamics, heat transfer and fluid flow in addon modules.
R
E
Customization
Femaps open customization capability allows complete access to all Femap functions
through an OLE/COM object-oriented Application Programming Interface (API), which employs
standard, non-proprietary programming languages. Access to the API is through a development
environment within the user interface where you can create custom programs that automate
workflows and processes, and which can interact and exchange data with third-party programs
such as Microsoft Word and Excel.
S

C
Usability
Femap is an intuitive Windows-native application. Femaps support of multiple
graphics windows and specialized panes, such as the Model Info Tree and Data Table, allow
complete access to the finite element model and results data and help promote efficient work
flows. You can modify the appearance of the interface to suit your requirements, including
repositioning panes, modifying the level of functionality exposed, and complete toolbar and icon
customization.

Application development,
Including graphical user interface building MATLAB is an interactive system
whose basic data element is an array that does not require dimensioning. It allows
you to solve many technical computing problems, especially those with matrix and
vector formulations, in a fraction of the time it would take to write a program in a
scalar noninteractive language such as C or FORTRAN.

The name MATLAB stands for matrix laboratory. MATLAB was originally
written to provide easy access to matrix software developed by the LINPACK and
EISPACK projects. Today, MATLAB engines incorporate the LAPACK and
BLAS libraries, embedding the state of the art in software for matrix computation.

SIMULINK INTRODUCTION:
Simulink is a graphical extension to MATLAB for modeling and simulation
of systems. In Simulink, systems are drawn on screen as block diagrams. Many
elements of block diagrams are available, such as transfer functions, summing
junctions, etc., as well as virtual input and output devices such as function
generators and oscilloscopes. Simulink is integrated with MATLAB and data can
be easily transferred between the programs. In these tutorials, we will apply
Simulink to the examples from the MATLAB tutorials to model the systems, build
controllers, and simulate the systems. Simulink is supported on Unix, Macintosh,
and Windows environments; and is included in the student version of MATLAB
for personal computers.

The idea behind these tutorials is that you can view them in one window while
running Simulink in another window. System model files can be downloaded from
the tutorials and opened in Simulink. You will modify and extend these system
while learning to use Simulink for system modeling, control, and simulation. Do
not confuse the windows, icons, and menus in the tutorials for your actual
Simulink windows. Most images in these tutorials are not live - they simply
display what you should see in your own Simulink windows. All Simulink
operations should be done in your Simulink windows.
