Design Verification, Finite Element Analysis, and Hand Calculations
At Rota Design, we provide comprehensive design verification services to ensure that your products and systems meet the highest standards of safety, reliability, and performance. Our rigorous approach combines advanced Finite Element Analysis (FEA) with traditional hand calculations, offering a robust, multi-faceted evaluation of your designs.
Design Verification
Ensuring Accuracy and Reliability
-
Comprehensive Review Process: Our design verification services involve a meticulous review of all design aspects to ensure they comply with industry standards, regulatory requirements, and your specific project needs. We examine every detail, from material selection to structural integrity, to increase confidence that the design will perform as intended in real-world conditions.
-
Cross-Disciplinary Expertise: Our time served engineers brings together expertise across various engineering disciplines, allowing us to verify complex systems with precision. Whether it’s a mechanical component, a plastic product, or a structural assembly, we ensure that every aspect of the design is thoroughly vetted.
-
Risk Mitigation: By identifying potential design flaws early in the development process, we help you mitigate risks, reduce costly rework, and increase confidence that your product is ready for manufacturing or deployment.
Finite Element Analysis (FEA)
Advanced Simulation for Optimised Design
-
Stress and Strain Analysis: FEA allows us to simulate the behaviour of materials under various loads, including stress, strain, and deformation. We use this powerful tool to predict how your design will perform under different conditions, helping you optimise the structure for strength, durability, and efficiency.
-
Thermal Analysis: We conduct thermal analysis to evaluate how your design handles temperature variations. This is crucial for products that operate in extreme environments or undergo significant temperature changes, ensuring they maintain integrity and performance.
-
Dynamic Analysis: Our FEA services also include dynamic analysis, which assesses how your design responds to forces over time, such as vibrations, impacts, or cyclic loading. This helps ensure that your design can withstand real-world operating conditions without failure.
-
Optimisation and Validation: We use FEA not only for verification but also for design optimisation. By iterating through various scenarios, we can refine your design to achieve the best possible performance while minimising material usage and costs.
Hand Calculations
Traditional Methods for Reliable Verification
-
Fundamental Analysis: Hand calculations provide a critical check against FEA results, ensuring that the numerical simulations align with established engineering principles. Our engineers perform manual calculations using fundamental formulas and engineering theory to validate the accuracy of the FEA models.
-
Simplified Models: In cases where complex FEA models might not be necessary, we use hand calculations to quickly assess the feasibility and safety of a design. This approach is particularly useful for verifying straightforward components or systems where analytical solutions are readily available.
-
Redundancy and Confidence: Combining hand calculations with FEA adds a layer of redundancy to the verification process, increasing confidence in the final design. It ensures that every aspect of your project has been scrutinised through multiple lenses, reducing the likelihood of errors.
