MET 425Finite Element Analysis Applications II

3 credits · Mechanical Engineering Technology · Penn State

Solutions of advanced engineering design problems using finite element methods. MET 425 Finite Element Analysis Applications II (3) Students study advanced topics in finite element analysis (FEA), including CAD interfaces, non-linear behavior, heat transfer analysis, dynamic analysis, optimization and/or design of experiments (DOE), and design and analysis to code. Emphasis is placed on efficient models (symmetry, simplifying assumptions, etc.) and verification of results.
