During its existence DesignTec has been a contractor or subcontractor for quantity of projects from various industries where FE simulations have been required. The following references represent only a minor enumeration of the projects processed by DesignTec. In case of your interest we are open to present our further reference projects that are similar/close to your potential assignment.
ANSYS ACT Extension: FEMFAT inside ANSYS
The ACT Extension FEMFAT for ANSYS was developed by DESIGNTEC for our customer Engineering Center Steyr GmbH & Co KG, the developer of FEMFAT software.
moreUser-defined material model for steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC)
A new user-defined material model based on Drucker-Prager yield criterion with trilinear softening has been developed for modelling of steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC) exposed to high temperatures.
moreStatic Analysis of a Service Pit for Rail Vehicles
Analysis: FEA, Static Analyis, Linear Buckling, ANSYS
Objective: For a load bearing capacity and serviceability assessment a detail static analysis of a service pit for rail vehicles was performed.
moreStress Analysis and Fatigue Live Prediction of a Disc Brake System
Analysis: FEA, Stress Analysis, Low Cycle and High Cycle Fatigue, Contact Analysis, ANSYS
Objective: Within the scope of an innovative vehicle brake system development of a non-linear static contact analysis of a brake assembly (250+ parts) was performed. Based on the assessment of the low-cycle and high-cycle fatigue few design changes were adopted, which eliminated potential problems limiting the fatigue design life before the manufacture of the prototype and its testing.
moreDynamic Analysis and Fatigue Life Prediction of Reinforced Concrete Chamber for Testing of High Explosives
Analysis: FEA, Dynamic Analysis, Blast, Reinforced Concrete, Fatigue Life Prediction, Cyclic Load, ANSYS
Objective: The principal objective of the dynamic analysis was to predict a design life of a concrete chamber for testing of explosives. The testing chamber will be used for research and testing of new explosive materials.
moreStatic Analysis of Railway Bridge OSKAR during Construction and Parametric Study on Uncertain Model Parameters
Analysis: FEA, Static Analysis, Construction Phases, Pre-tensioning, Large Displacements, ANSYS
Objective: The primary objective of the presented project was to determine the static response of the Railway Bridge OSKAR steel structure during the construction phases.
moreAnalysis and Design of Machine Foundation
Analysis: FEA, ANSYS, Dynamic Analysis (Modal+Harmonic), Vibration Control and Isolation
Objective: Within the scope of chemical plant modernization, concrete block foundation below the radial fan was designed.
