Verified and Validated Virtual Reality

MPACT is a general purpose Multi Physics Finite Element program. A complete analysis of the key load cycles in the life of the product will give the user a better understanding of where to position the strain gauges and when and how to monitor the gauges throughout the life cycle of the product. A comparison of analysis and experiment will also alert the user to any significant deviations from the model.

The SPHINX program is a Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics program that takes over when the MPACT program has reached the limit of its ability to predict behavior with large concentration of strains and/or high impact loadings.

Key Benefits

• Predict nonlinear behavior of structure subjected to multi-physics loads.
• Provides guidance on location of strain gauges.
• Provides guidance on timing of gauge measurements
• Predicts life of product based on strain cycles.
• Predicts creep life.
• Predicts failure due to buckling and post-buckling.
• Thermal loading effects.
• Dynamic loading effects.
• Fluid Solid Interaction.
• Programs are supported by the MPAVE pre and post processor.
