Finite Element Modeling and Analysis | Intelligent Measurements and Evaluation Laboratory | SIU

Originally developed for aerospace structural analysis, Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is now a convenient and speedy tool for approximation of the solution to a wide variety of complicated engineering problems across a wide range of industries.  IMEL FEA modeling and simulation research capabilities include a full range of engineering applications to drive product designs from concept to product.  Dr. Chu has over a decade of finite element analysis experience and can solve your most difficult engineering analysis problems.  IMEL have extensive experience in many areas of engineering and analysis, including:

• Structural Analysis (including composites)
• Static, Dynamic, Modal & random vibration analysis (harmonic and impact)
• Explicit Dynamics Analysis
• Fatigue Analysis (including reliability and service life prediction)
• Fracture mechanics and crack growth studies
• Thermal Analysis
• Heat Transfer, radiation, transient, non-linear material properties and impact analysis
• Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
• Acoustics
