The Science and Art of FEA Modeling
The translation of a bridge design into a finite element analysis (FEA) model is not a simple data conversion process.
The engineer needs to determine what behaviors are important to capture and what minimum level of refinement is required to achieve the goals of the analysis. To obtain a model that accurately reflects the important behavior, without excessive effort or complication, often requires the creative application of basic engineering principles and experience.
This webinar will explore some of the frequent modeling issues encountered when creating FEA models of steel bridges, and cover some of the more effective solutions.
