Abstract

The theory of finite element analysis (FEA) was sprouted from the needs of solving structural design problems in solid mechanics. FEA has been proven as a vital solution to a variety of design problems in solid mechanics. In this chapter, design analysis of mechanical structure is discussed. Mechanical design problems are classified as structural analysis, modal analysis, and fatigue analysis; they are formulated as FEA simulation models, so that commercial FEA tools can be applied to determine stress distribution, deformation, stability, and fatigue lives.
