Structural Mechanics

deformation clamp mecanique structureSIMTEC has expertise in characterizing and using the mechanical.

After determining the best law to describe efficiently the rheology of your material, we analyze its eigenfrequencies and/or its mechanical behavior under certain stresses :
 

  • mechanical stress
     
  • thermal gradient
     
  • interaction with a fluid
     
  • contact load with another piece


Such a study enables you to predict large stress areas and fracture risk with fatigue analysis.

These computations can enable optimization (least-squares or Design Of Experiments) of :
 

  • the designs of pieces
     
  • the choice of materials
     
  • the life length of products

Example goals could be to minimize the failure risks, to obtain a resonant system at a given frequency or, on the contrary, to move the eigenfrequencies away, out of frequencies of utilization.
