Description

One of the key skills in the larger skillset of mechanical design is designing and improving structures. Any mechanical system consists of two fundamental elements Structures and Mechanisms.Structures are Static load bearing and Mechanisms are moving , functional elements. Fusion 360 is a popular Engineering design software and the IN-Design CAE simulation module is very useful in validating designs.  This course focusses on Static Stress analysis using Fusion 360 simulation Topics covered: Design process , Analysis and TestingLevels of Engineering analysisNeed for Finite element AnalysisSimple 2D Beam FEA method - understanding the basicsStiffness matrix, Force matrix, Displacement matrixSimple FEA example 2 - Axial rodStrong Form and Weak form solutionsTypes of Elements Workflow in FEAMaterial properties Linear vs Non linearSetting up the simulation in Fusion 360What is Von Mises stress and Principal stressFactor of safetyMesh Size and Stress  singularitiesCase study on Remedy to singularityHand Calculations vs FEAFEA and correlation to TestingLearning FrameworkFEA analyst vs design engineerFixed vs Pined constraint in BeamsFixed vs Partially FixedPinned constraint with tangential freedom vs axial freedomApplying contact - Bonded, Sliding and Separation Case study 1 : Cantilever bracket optimizationCase study 2 : Simple Beam Design alternativesCase study 3 Simple Frame rigidity analysis Case study 4 : Torsional Rigidity of H frameCase study 5 : L Sheet metal bracket design Case study 6 : Clamp Bracket - Flangesand many more Who is it for?
