Are you preparing for the FEA Wizard Mug competition?
Whether you're a novice or a pro, there's always an opportunity to refine your FEA skills. This is where my article, https://enterfea.com/imperfections-in-buckling-design/ becomes a valuable resource. It's crafted to bolster your FEA strategies and give you a competitive edge (also in the competition).

So if you want to learn important things about imperfections in design (and get a higher chance of scoring well in the competition on Thursday), definitely read it!

Imperfections in buckling design Using eigenvalues from LBA as imperfections in nonlinear buckling cases is the most common approach. I will prove that this is usually a bad idea!

Finally, the FEA WIzard Mug competitions are coming back!
Next week I will announce the first one, after almost 4 year break!

Can't wait :)

Linear approach to FEA simplifies a lot of things for you.

While it leads to simple modeling and fast computing, there are dangers of over-simplifications in most problems!

This is why it is so important to understand the difference between linear and nonlinear analysis.

The Difference Between Linear and Nonlinear FEA? I remember my first presentation regarding my Ph.D. It was my first year on the doctoral program, and I was starting to be on a first-name basis with people that were my teachers just a semester ago. I went to the middle of the room and started talking about shell buckling... the problem

Computers doesn’t make errors while calculating stuff… but you may get wrong answer in FEA!

Learn why in this article.

How Accurate is Finite Element Analysis? FEA accuracy is a topic that often provokes discussions. Without a doubt, there are FEA evangelists (I would include myself to the group!) and FEA disbelievers. So, let's take a look and wonder how accurate is Finite Element Analysis. FEA is almost like a calculator: it's as accurate as its user. Bu...

Nodes and Elements are the fundamental “bricks” of any FEA model.

So its make a perfect sense to take a closer look at them!

What are Nodes and Elements in Finite Element Analysis? Nodes and Elements are the very backbones of Finite Element Analysis. You will use them in every analysis you will perform in FEA, so learning about them seems like a good idea! So, what are Nodes and Elements in Finite Element Analysis? In FEA, you divide your model into small pieces. Those are
