FINITE ELEMENT MODELING
— ADSC's well trained engineers create high quality shell and
— solid meshes to help insure accurate results.

NON LINEAR ANALYSIS
— Non linear static and dynamic stress and deflection analysis.
— Sliding and contact analysis with friction
— Metal, plastics, gaskets, foam, etc.
— Plasticity, hyperelasticity, viscoelasticity, creep, foam behavior, etc.
— Transient motion, excitation, etc.

LINEAR ANALYSIS
— Linear stress and deflection analysis of structures under
— mechanical and thermal loading.
— Modal analysis to determine a structure's vibration characteristics.
— Thermal conduction, convection, and radiation analysis capabilities.

CRASHWORTHINESS
— Highly nonlinear behavior
— Drop test simulations of plastic fuel tanks
— Automotive bumper crash

OPTIMIZATION
— Reduction of stress and deflection
— Weight reduction
— Shape, frequency, thickness, mass, stiffness optimization

COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS (CFD)
— Air flow around structures
— Venting plenums and intake manifolds
— Fuel sloshing and filling analysis of automotive fuel tanks
