OUR JOBS MARKETS CERTIFICATIONS R&D CONTACT Laws of behavior Properties of elastomers Home R&D Calculation phase Calculation phase Among the calculation means at our disposal, we distinguish between spreadsheet software and finite element calculations. Spreadsheet software Spreadsheets make it possible to define mechanical quantities for conventional geometries. Finite element calculations Our finite element calculation software allows you to perform calculations for any geometries and materials. This software is installed on SUN workstations . The choice of constitutive laws and the optimization of their coefficients is done using software designed for this purpose. This finite element calculation software makes it possible to calculate parts in 2 or 3 dimensions (3D mesh software), by applying any type of loading. The results obtained being: the deformations undergone in order to define the dimensions; stresses in the material to define loading limits; the elastic energy stored by the material; the eigen modes of vibration. The calculation of the part is done in several steps: characterization tests of the materials envisaged; calculation of optimization of constitutive laws; 2D drawing, mesh, 3D passage if necessary, grouping of meshes if the part has been fragmented; creation of a command file summarizing the behaviors and the loadings; launch of the calculation, analysis and interpretation of the results.
