Finite Element Analysis Seminar For Vessels, Piping & Component Analysis |
Download Registration Form Prerequisites
Each day combines engineering theory with detailed, practical example problems that apply the theory learned. A wide variety of component types are examined using the latest FEA software from Paulin Research Group. You will learn how to acheive code compliance and cost-effective, accurate analysis and designs.
Pipe Stress Analysis: Days 1-2
Day 1
Proper Flexibility Analysis (intersections, pipe, supports, structural steel)
Proper SIFs for Intersection Components
Rotating Equipment Issues
Combination of Stresses
Day 2
Use of Path Dependent Friction
Load Factor Design Approach
Failure Analysis
Simplified Post Construction Approaches
____________________________________________________________________
Finite Element Analysis / Practical Application: Days 3-4
Day 3
