nCode DesignLife
nCode DesignLife is an up-front design tool that identifies critical locations and calculates realistic fatigue lives from leading finite element (FE) results for both metals and composites. Design engineers can go beyond performing simplified stress analysis and avoid under- or over-designing products by simulating actual loading conditions to avoid costly design changes. Product options containing functions for virtual shaker testing, fatigue of welds, vibration fatigue, crack growth detection, fatigue of composites, thermo-mechanical fatigue analysis. Advanced technology for multiaxial, welds, short-fibre composite, vibration, crack growth, thermo-mechanical fatigue. Intuitive, graphical interface for performing fatigue analysis from leading FEA results data, including ANSYS, Nastran, Abaqus, Altair OptiStruct, LS-Dyna and others. Multi-threaded and distributed processing capabilities for processing large finite element models and complete usage schedules.

fe-safe
Material usage optimization has become the cornerstone of the transformation that the industry is currently experiencing. Manufacturers relentlessly pursue lightweight and robust components to deliver cost-efficient production with lower warranties, minimal recall costs, and accelerated timelines. Advanced finite element analysis is a staple in design stress calculations. Many companies still rely on manual stress point selection for spreadsheet analysis to conduct fatigue analysis. This approach is time-consuming and unreliable because it increases the risk of overlooking critical failure locations. fe-safe is the technical leader in fatigue analysis software for finite element models. fe-safe has set the benchmark for fatigue analysis software since the early 1990s in close collaboration with the industry. The fe-safe software suite is a world-leading technology for durability analysis from FEA. It directly interfaces with all major FEA suites.

MSC Nastran
MSC Nastran is a multidisciplinary structural analysis application used by engineers to perform static, dynamic, and thermal analysis across the linear and nonlinear domains, complemented with automated structural optimization and award winning embedded fatigue analysis technologies, all enabled by high performance computing. Engineers use MSC Nastran to ensure structural systems have the necessary strength, stiffness, and life to preclude failure (excess stresses, resonance, buckling, or detrimental deformations) that may compromise structural function and safety. MSC Nastran is also used to improve the economy and passenger comfort of structural designs. Optimize the performance of existing designs or develop unique product differentiators, leading to industry advantages over competitors. Remedy structural issues that may occur during a product’s service, reducing downtime and costs.
