Static and quasi-static simulation
CEVAA carries out static and quasi-static simulation for industry. Our design office analyses the behaviour of structures and systems subjected to static loads.
What is static simulation?
Static simulation is a numerical analysis method that allows to determine the stresses, deformations and reactions of a structure or system subjected to constant loads over time.
Static and quasi-static simulation by engineers
CEVAA performs static and quasi-static simulation. Our design office supports manufacturers in the analysis of the distribution of stresses and deformations undergone by the structure. Static analysis is most widely used in order to verify the structural strength.
Our finite element simulation design office also has the expertise needed to support you in taking into account the most complex non-linearities (contact with friction, material anisotropy, large deformations, etc.).
- Analysis of mechanical strength: calculation of stresses/deformations and forces
- Linear static analysis: to draw up a map of the areas where the risks of permanent deformations and rupture are proven. This is the entry point for structural strength analyses.
- Non-linear static analysis: to understand the behavior of mechanical parts that may admit the presence of a certain level of plastic or permanent deformations.
- Prototype design: support for design according to specifications, parametric studies and geometry optimization
We have powerful calculation software and extensive feedback from our teams.
