We have many years in
performing stress analysis to exacting requirements; classical & FEA;
formal reports & documentation; all materials: aluminum, carbon &
stainless steels, composites and Elastomers.
Computer-Simulated-Stress-Analysis
provides a major benefit to the design process by:
-
Reducing the product
weight
-
Increasing the product
strength
-
Reducing product
design time
-
Reducing premature
product failure
-
Optimizing
manufactured product design
-
Reducing number of
initial tests
HLA Engineers, Inc. has
applied FEA to the design and analysis of many complex structures and
manufactured products. We have analysis experience with most modern
materials used to fabricate structures and manufactured products. We also
have experience with all types of analyses including Stress, Thermal,
Vibration, and Fatigue analyses. We will develop practical and accurate
finite element models of your product or structure from engineering
drawings or from electronic data-files. We will collaborate with your
Engineering Department in providing analysis support for on-going or
periodic design projects. Our participation in your design process is to
assist you in creating optimal products that meet all your design
criteria, including stress, vibration, and thermal specifications.
We use state-of-the-art FEA and other analysis programs like ANSYS, MARC
and MSC/NASTRAN. We also have several in house custom FEA programs for the
analysis of metal and elastomeric parts.
HLA can help with the:
-
Design of structural
steel, concrete, and wood frame members & connections
-
Design of FRP
structures
-
Design based on UBC,
NBC, and SBC code criteria
-
Design of unique
structures and unique loading criteria
-
Design for extreme
loads such as wind and earthquake
-
Design for vibration
isolation of structures and supported equipment
-
Reduction of potential
for fatigue and fracture of structures and connections
