Introduction to fe-safe
Durability is a requirement for product creation in many industries, because cycling loads can cause damage much sooner than a static load. This course introduces fatigue life calculations in fe-safe and gives you an understanding of how to configure a fatigue analysis based on FEA solutions. These life results can be used to iterate on a design and improve the overall durability of the design. The course is divided into lectures and workshops. The course's workshops are integral to the training. They are designed to reinforce concepts presented during the lectures. They are intended to provide users with the experience of running and trouble-shooting actual fatigue analyses.
