FEM - Linear, Nonlinear Analysis & Post-Processing

Experience a comprehensive hands-on project focusing on the Finite Element Method (FEM) and its application in linear and nonlinear static analysis using the cloud-based simulation tool SimScale. Throughout this course, you will delve into the intricacies of setting up simulation cases, understanding the fundamentals of FEM, and approaching static linear and nonlinear analyses. As you progress, you will be guided through the classical three-step process of every simulation, which includes pre-processing, processing, and post-processing steps.

SimScale, a pioneering engineering simulation platform, revolutionizes the product design approach for engineers, designers, scientists, and students. Accessible via a standard web browser, the platform boasts an easy-to-use interface and supports various simulation types, including solid mechanics (FEM), fluid dynamics (CFD), and thermodynamics. This project, hosted on Coursera's Rhyme platform, ensures a seamless learning experience within your web browser, eliminating the need for any special setup or data retrieval. Dive into the project without delay, as everything is pre-configured within cloud desktops, granting instant access to the required software and data.

Throughout the course, you will gain insights into the power of cloud-based simulation technology and develop proficiency in setting up linear and nonlinear static analyses while effectively post-processing the results. Ideal for learners in North America, this course is tailored to provide a comprehensive understanding of FEM and its practical applications within a short span of time.
