Durability by Design – An Introduction to fatigue analysis, fe-safe™ and Verity®

Presented by John Draper

This FREE seminar covers the problems that can now be solved using durability analysis software for FEA models. A technology update in key areas of fatigue analysis is provided as well as an introduction to fe-safe™ and the Verity® in fe-safe™ weld fatigue module. You will learn why traditional methods of metal fatigue analysis get it wrong and why modern methods, fe-safe™ and Verity® get it right.
Next date: Houston, TX, Monday 20th July. Reserve your place for this and future dates at www.safetechnology.com


Modern Metal Fatigue Analysis

Presented by John Draper

This 3-day theory class is software neutral and offers an introduction to modern theories of metal fatigue and their practical application through worked examples and interaction/discussion. There is a strong emphasis on what is possible and the pitfalls to avoid. No previous knowledge of fatigue is necessary. John Draper’s book Modern Metal Fatigue Analysis, forms the basis of the course-notes for this class.
Next date: Houston, TX, Tuesday 21st – Thursday 23rd July. Reserve your place for this and future dates at www.safetechnology.com


Practical fe-safe™ Training

Presented by Safe Technology Applications Engineers

Hands-on, pc-based, two-day training course for users and potential users of fe-safe™ software. The course includes hands-on tutorials and practical examples. You will learn how to set up and import models into fe-safe™, set up your loadings and run various analyses.
Next date: Houston, TX, Thursday 23rd – Friday 24th July. Reserve your place for this and future dates at www.safetechnology.com
