π Structural Optimization: 7 Design Tips for for Lighter Designs by nTop
Lightweighting means more than just reducing mass. Through smart design techniques, you can maximize product functionality and minimize costs. In this blog post, Alkaios Bournias Varotsis gives his seven design tips for efficient structural design.
π Writing a Scientific Article: A Step-by-Step Guide for Beginners
Many young researchers find it extremely difficult to write scientific articles, and few receive specific training in the art of presenting their research work in written format. Yet, publication is often vital for career advancement, to obtain funding, to obtain academic qualifications, or for all these reasons. We describe here the basic steps to follow in writing a scientific article. We outline the main sections that an average article should contain; the elements that should appear in these sections, and some pointers for making the overall result attractive and acceptable for publication.
π MIT Finite Element Procedures for Solids and Structures, Linear Analysis
Excellent MIT class on FEM by instructor and FEM legend Klaus-JuΜrgen Bathe.
π§ Strategies for Turbulence Modelling and Simulations
This is a paper by P.R. Spalart that clarifies and size up the many levels possible for the numerical prediction of a turbulent flow, the target being a complete airplane, turbine, or car.
π¬ Company of the Week
The generative AI platform for manufacturing, AslanX simplifies the repetitive processes of design, simulation, and testing.
π» Engineering Tool of the Week - PROJECTCHRONO
Chrono is a physics-based modelling and simulation infrastructure based on a platform-independent open-source design implemented in C++.
A PROJECTCHRONO library can be embedded in a software project to simulate, for instance, wheeled and tracked vehicles operating on deformable terrains, robots, mechatronic systems, compliant mechanisms, and fluid solid interaction phenomena. Systems can be made of rigid and flexible/compliant parts with constraints, motors and contacts; parts can have three-dimensional shapes for collision detection.
π Book of the Week
A First Course in the Finite Element Method
Discover a simple, direct approach that highlights the basics you need within A FIRST COURSE IN THE FINITE ELEMENT METHOD, 6E. This unique book is written so both undergraduate and graduate students can easily comprehend the content without the usual prerequisites, such as structural analysis.
The book is written primarily as a basic learning tool for students, like you, in civil and mechanical engineering who are primarily interested in stress analysis and heat transfer. The text offers ideal preparation for utilizing the finite element method as a tool to solve practical physical problems.
