Shadow has been offering finite element analysis (FEA) since our founding in the mid 1990's. Simply stated, finite element analysis is the analytic method of dividing a part's geometry into thousands of smaller regions known as elements. Then, a variety of properties are assigned to each element in order to give the sub-divided part strength, thickness, material properties and so on, so that the finite element model (FEM) represents your part. The FEM is then subjected to a multitude of unique analysis solvers that will simulate how your part will perform in operation.

Modules Available:

Thermal, Mechanical, Vibrational, Modal, Buckling, Gravitational, Linear, Static (stationary), Dynamic (motion).

It was a pleasure to work with Shadow Polymers for our FEA needs. The information was compiled and provided in a timely manner when the deadline was critical. Your detailed presentations helped visually illustrate areas of concern in our part design. Your information allowed us to make critical design changes that could have led to failures in the field if not addressed. Thanks for you great work.
