i3’s Engineering Analysis expertise allows our team to optimize the design of a product, test its performance and minimize the product design/test cycle through a range of analysis techniques and tools.
Rigid Body Dynamics and Kinematics
Rigid body dynamics and kinematics allows us to assess the feasibility of new designs, optimize geometry for better performance, predict processing parameters, and compare competing designs in a virtual environment without having to build costly prototypes.
COMPUTATIONAL
FLUID DYNAMICS
• Airflow Analysis
• Flow Mixing
• Heat Transfer and Thermal Modeling
• Fluid-Structure Interaction
FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) tools are commonly leveraged for design improvement, to understand and predict product behavior, product life prediction estimates, data correlation, and design verification to ultimately minimize the product design/test cycle.
STRESS ANALYSIS
Linear and non-linear stress and deflection analysis are tools that allow our engineering team to confidently design all types of load-bearing systems. When combined with an appropriate failure theory, stress analysis is an excellent tool for predicting a structure’s service life even before parts are made.
DYNAMIC ANALYSIS
Ability to create highly detailed non-linear models to correlate to impact, crash, and drop testing.
THERMAL ANALYSIS
Thermal analysis engineering services include steady-state, transient, radiation, convection, fluid coupled, stress, and deflection analysis.
VIBRATION ANALYSIS
Vibration analysis abilities include modal, acoustic response, shock, harmonic vibration, and random vibration analysis.
