Manufacturing

Manufacturers today are under ever-increasing pressure to deliver higher quality products while lowering costs to stay competitive. In other words, do more with less. That’s where Martec comes in. We have been helping manufacturers optimize their product designs using advanced structural analysis, in particular, Finite Element Analysis (FEA), for more than 30 years.

FEA is a computer-based, engineering analysis technique that predicts the responses of structures and materials to external load factors such as stress, heat and vibration. Bringing extensive engineering experience to the table, our experts first develop a 3D computational model of a product design and then simulate the performance of the design under real-world conditions.

By testing multiple scenarios, engineers can optimize the product design by identifying and correcting points of possible structural failure. This helps manufacturers improve overall product quality, reliability and performance, and lower design costs by reducing the need for expensive prototypes, shortening design cycles and accelerating time to market.

Combining a unique mix of theoretical, practical and experimental knowledge with years of experience in advanced structural analysis using FEA, we have the sound engineering judgment required to provide practical analytical answers. We have helped many manufacturers build better products while lowering costs to stay competitive.

Martec experts use a variety of proven and validated engineering analysis software tools including ANSYS, LS-DYNA, PamCrash, MSC/NASTRAN and Trident FEA. For special requirements, custom software capabilities can be developed in-house. Martec's comprehensive structural analysis and design capabilities include:

  • Structural response analysis: stress, displacement, vibration, dynamic, buckling
  • Thermal: temperature and structural response
  • Impact: crash/collision simulation
  • Nonlinear material and large displacement analysis
  • Material property evaluation and modeling
  • Composite design and analysis
  • Working stress and/or limit states design
