1. Structural analysis
Static Analysis - A static analysis calculates the effects of steady loading conditions
on a structure, while ignoring time-varying loads. Static analysis is used to determine
the displacements, stresses, strains, and forces in structures or components. A static
analysis can be either linear or nonlinear. Linear means straight line. σ = E ε is
equation of straight line (y = m x) passing through origin. "E" Elastic Modulus is
slope of the curve & is a constant. In real life after crossing yield point
material follows non liner curve.
The temperature distributions, the amount of heat lost or gained, Thermal gradients
Thermal fluxes.
An analogy of heat transfer analysis and structural analysis is shown in the table
below.
3. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Analysis
A fluid is a substance that continuously deforms under an applied shear stress
regardless of the magnitude of the applied stress. Gas and liquids are both
fluids. Fluid mechanics deals with the study of fluid, its properties, and its
behaviour.
In addition to the above analysis types, several special-purpose analysis also use
Finite element Method.
