Measure vibrations & optimize structural designs using cloud-native FEA simulation.
Vibration analysis is an investigation that engineers do to study the patterns of vibration signals in a system and identify anomalies or changes.
Simulation helps define your system’s response to vibration using appropriate analysis types under Finite Element Analysis (FEA). FEA is a numerical solution that enables you to study structural aspects related to vibration, such as stress, displacement, velocity, eigenmodes, and more. FEA analysis types include Modal, Static, Harmonic, and Dynamic Analyses.
SimScale enables engineers to leverage the power of cloud computing to quickly and efficiently analyze the effects of vibration on their designs, ultimately speeding up the iterative structural design process as a whole.
Using cloud-native simulation, you can:
Vibration analysis allows users to mitigate the risk of physical vibration test failure. Many products are required to undergo physical vibration testing to be certified for safe usage under international standardization body regulations.
Using SimScale’s vibration analysis tools, you can:
Modal analysis describes the limits of a system’s response to an applied load with a corresponding magnitude and frequency. By studying the system’s vibration response, engineers and designers can define particular design changes and approaches that maintain the system’s robustness and avoid issues of resonance.
With SimScale’s frequency analysis, users can evaluate the overall rigidity of their design structure and the local rigidity in particular regions by analyzing the natural frequencies of their structure. It can help determine the structure’s eigenfrequencies (eigenvalues) and eigenmodes (mode shapes) due to vibration.
Customer Success
TechSAT uses simulation at the conceptual phase to find the best structural design approaches to maintaining the survivability of electrical equipment against vibration. Using SimScale, not only did they specify evidence-based approaches against vibration, but they also minimized their need for physical prototyping, meanwhile saving €15k in licensing and hardware costs.
