Over-design, prototype
test-correction loops, and late product startups cannot be tolerated in todays
competitive product markets. Considerable time and money can be saved by fully
understanding the mechanical behavior of a design prior to
production. Finite element analysis (FEA) allows fast and accurate prediction
of stress and deformation as a function of material properties and
load cases on unique parts or complete assemblies.
Comprehensive Engineering
Solutions, Inc. carries
traditional FEA analysis one step further with the
use of Pro/E Mechanica Structure. We are able to analyze geometry from
within the Pro/E environment as a parallel part of the design process.
Multiple design variables can be systematically iterated,
geometrically regenerated within Pro/E, and structurally analyzed within
Pro/Mechanica. In essence,
CES can optimize your part by running design
sensitivity studies which compare stress and deflection against
physical material properties or specific design
goals.

CES
is fluent with Patran
2,3,&5, ABAQUS, NASTRAN, and
Mechanica. Our application of
Mechanica is extremely well suited to the
complex geometry found in moldings and castings for typical
consumer and business products. The combination of Pro/E
parametric solids and Mechanica Adaptive P-element analysis is
unparalleled in rapid product design.
CES can
provide structural finite element analysis at any stage of the
product design cycle. We can accept input in any form from paper
to full Pro/E Assemblies.
