Cranfield Precision carries out extensive finite element analysis (FEA) during the design of machines and machine elements. Thus we ensure that our machine tools have the right static and dynamic performance while optimising mass and application of materials.
Using COSMOSM and COSMOSDesignStar Cranfield Precision carries out analyses for:
Static Stiffness or Compliance
Stress or Strain
Modal Analysis
Non-linear Static and Dynamic Behaviour
Contact / Friction between Machine Elements
COSMOSDesignSTAR allows the data exchange between CAD and FEA-Software allowing quick and convenient transfer of solid modelling data into the analysis modules. More complex analysis tasks are remodelled or modified in the COSMOSGeoSTAR environment
