OpenSource FEM – Get started quickly and safely and stay one step ahead of the competition

Why should you bother with FEM freeware?

Many companies and freelancers currently want to use digital twins to simulate the mechanical behavior of products or manufacturing processes before the first real prototypes are produced.

By using digital twins or simulation, you are one step ahead of the competition. I had already described this in this article (CLICK).

Unfortunately, many companies and freelancers still do not use digital twins, even though this could give them a significant competitive advantage.

This is because in many cases digital twins are built using FEM or CFD simulation. Simulation software is required for this purpose.

Many companies and freelancers are reluctant to use commercial simulation software because of the high licensing costs. (more…)

Numerical modal analysis – Christmas simulation 2021

Numerical modal analysis – Christmas simulation 2021

Natural frequencies and modes from the gingerbread man Pfeffi

For this year’s Christmas simulation, we carried out a numerical modal analysis with the FEM freeware Salome Meca. Today I would like to introduce you to Pfeffi . Pfeffi is a gingerbread man, is approx. 400 mm tall and is made of aluminum (E = 70,000N / mm²). For our Christmas simulation we were able to persuade Pfeffi to undergo a numerical modal analysis. Additional dimensions in his arms and legs inspire Pfeffi to adopt the following eigenmodes: (more…)

Digital twin and virtual prototype in Industry 4.0 – simulation brings them to life

Digital twin and virtual prototype in Industry 4.0 – simulation brings them to life

Industry 4.0 is on everyone’s lips and is discussed in countless specialist publications. That is good, because Industry 4.0 stimulates thinking about the processes in your own product creation process. Terms such as digital twin, virtual prototype and simulation are in circulation and must be filled with a meaning that is as uniform as possible. In this blog post we would like to give you an overview of the meaning of these terms and build a common understanding. The discussion about Industry 4.0 is by no means aloof and academic. It sums up the industrial application of digital transformation, also in small and medium-sized companies.
