Applied Mechanics Modeling & Analysis

CAPE offers experienced engineering and technical personnel, including an applied mechanics engineering staff that provides modeling and analysis support, from vehicle crash analysis to component stress analysis. Applied mechanics analysis improves testing efficiency and allows engineers to explore conditions beyond physical testing.

Once a model is created, multiple analyses can be conducted at a very low incremental cost. Design revisions or material substitutions can be incorporated into the model and analyzed under similar conditions. This allows for direct comparison of analysis results while enabling engineers to evaluate how a change affects other areas of interest.

Vehicle Crash & Component Stress Analysis

Vehicle crash and component stress analysis are performed using modeling and dynamic testing. Engineers work with customers to quantify material properties and test the performance of their designs onsite, creating an immediate feedback loop that helps enable efficient product development.

CAE & FEA Simulation

  • Computer simulations estimate what could happen in a crash
  • Limits the need for destructive testing
  • Can be used for accident reconstruction and product evaluation
  • CAPE is a recognized leader in FEA simulation work
