MA Deacon Engineers is able to take design solutions to accurate and confident levels with the help of fe-safe fatigue analysis software. With fe-safe and our finite element models, we are able to:
- Predict when fatigue cracks will initiate and where the occur
- Predict whether existing cracks will propagate
- Process measured strain gauge data
- Apply actual load data to existing and future design simulations
This is done by using advanced methods including:
- Uni-axial strain and stress life methods
- Bi-axial strain and stress life methods
- Vibration fatigue
- Fatigue analysis of welded joints to BS7608 including the utilisation of critical plane analysis
- Fatigue analysis of welded joints using the Verity® structural stress method
