Introduction To Finite Element Analysis Using Creo Simulate 9 0

The primary goal of Introduction to Finite Element Analysis Using Creo Simulate 8.0 is to introduce the aspects of finite element analysis (FEA) that are important to engineers and designers. Theoretical aspects of finite element analysis are also introduced as they are needed to help better understand the operations. The primary emphasis of the text is placed on the practical concepts and procedures of using Creo Simulate in performing Linear Statics Stress Analysis; but the basic modal analysis procedure is covered. This text is intended to be used as a training guide for both students and professionals. This text covers Creo Simulate 8.0 and the lessons proceed in a pedagogical fashion to guide you from constructing basic truss elements to generating three-dimensional solid elements from solid models. This text takes a hands-on exercise intensive approach to all the important Finite Element Analysis techniques and concepts. This textbook contains a series of twelve tutorial style lessons designed to introduce beginning FEA users to Creo Simulate. The basic premise of this book is the more designs you create using Creo Simulate, the better you learn the software. With this in mind, each lesson introduces a new set of commands and concepts, building on previous lessons.

• Written for first time FEA and Creo Simulate users • Uses simple examples with step-by-step tutorials • Explains the relation of commands to the overall FEA philosophy • Both 2D and 3D problems are covered Creo Simulate 9.0 Tutorial introduces new users to finite element analysis using Creo Simulate and how it can be used to analyze a variety of problems. The tutorial lessons cover the major concepts and frequently used commands required to progress from a novice to an intermediate user level. The commands are presented in a click-by-click manner using simple examples and exercises that illustrate a broad range of the analysis types that can be performed. In addition to showing the command usage, the text will explain why certain commands are being used and, where appropriate, the relation of commands to the overall Finite Element Analysis (FEA) philosophy are explained. Moreover, since error analysis is an important skill, considerable time is spent exploring the created models so that users will become comfortable with the “debugging” phase of modeling. This textbook is written for first-time FEA users in general and Creo Simulate users in particular. After a brief introduction to finite element modeling, the tutorial introduces the major concepts behind the use of Creo Simulate to perform Finite Element Analysis of parts. These include modes of operation, element types, design studies (analysis, sensitivity studies, organization), and the major steps for setting up a model (materials, loads, constraints, analysis type), studying convergence of the solution, and viewing the results. Both 2D and 3D problems are covered. This tutorial deals exclusively with operation in integrated mode with Creo Parametric. It is suitable for use with both Releases 9.0 of Creo Simulate. The tutorials consist of the following: • 2 lessons on general introductory material • 2 lessons introducing the basic operations in Creo Simulate using solid models • 4 lessons on model idealizations (shells, beams and frames, plane stress, etc) • 1 lesson on miscellaneous topics • 1 lesson on steady and transient thermal analysis Table of Contents 1. Introduction to FEA 2. Finite Element Analysis with Creo Simulate 3. Solid Models Part 1: Standard Static Analysis 4. Solid Models Part 2: Design Studies, Optimization, AutoGEM Controls, Superposition 5. Plane Stress and Plane Strain Models 6. Axisymmetric Solids and Shells 7. Shell Models 8. Beams and Frames 9. Miscellaneous Topics: Cyclic Symmetry, Modal Analysis, Springs and Masses, Contact Analysis 10. Thermal Models: Steady state and transient models; transferring thermal results for stress analysis
