FEA / CAE Books

This tutorial provides an overall look over STAAD Pro 2005. It demonstrates the steps to be followed to produce the structural analysis and design of two types of buildings: concrete and steel. Also, the tutorial concentrates on the different results generated from the program, how to read them, view them, and finally generate the necessary...

The exercises in the ANSYS Workbench Tutorial introduce the reader to effective engineering problem solving through the use of this powerful modeling, simulation and optimization tool. Topics that are covered include solid modeling, stress analysis, conduction/convection heat transfer, thermal stress, vibration and buckling. It is designed...

The nine lessons in this book introduce the reader to effective finite element problem solving by demonstrating the use of the comprehensive ANSYS FEM software in a series of step-by-step tutorials. Topics covered include problems involving trusses, plane stress, plane strain, axisymmetric and three-dimensional geometries, beams,...

This book has been written for a finite element analysis course given to industry designers and college Mechanical Engineering Students who want to perform finite element analysis using Pro/MECHANICA in integrated mode. It is assumed by the author that the reader has a basic knowledge of Pro/Engineer (minimum 200 hours) in order to be able...

This book is written for industry designers and engineering students with limited knowledge of finite element analysis. By going through the lessons, the user will be able to perform structural static analysis and model large assemblies in FEA.
