A leading orthopaedic device manufacturer needed an easy-to-use,
consistent
analysis tool which would allow design engineers to perform quick
preliminary studies and simulations of new implants concurrently with the
design process. Working closely with our customer's in house
analysis group, we developed a customized simulation tool tying
together their in-house CAD and FEA packages.
Process Automation
-
intelligent geometry repair and clean-up an import
-
task-specific menus with step-by-step instructions
-
user options for desired simulation
-
mesh and solve
-
easy to interpret component life plot
-
automated analysis report generation
-
customized online Help feature
-
simulation time reduced from 40 hours to a couple of
hours for virtual hip stem analysis
A white paper about this customized analysis tool was presented at the
