Engineering Analysis with COSMOSWorks
Professional 2008 goes beyond the standard
software manual because its unique approach concurrently introduces you to COSMOSWorks
2008 software and the
fundamentals of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) through hands-on exercises.
A number of projects are presented using commonly used parts to
illustrate the analysis features of COSMOSWorks.
This book covers the following FEA functionality of COSMOSWorks 2008:
- Linear static analysis of parts and assemblies
- Frequency (modal) analysis
- Buckling analysis
- Thermal analysis
- Drop test analysis
- Optimization analysis
- Nonlinear analysis
- Dynamic analysis
