Virtual Modeling of Adhesives: Balance between Accuracy, Robustness & Performance

There are increasing expectations from simulation models, and reliance on the insights they provide to project teams. Modeling of adhesives has .. Read more become very important, as component level accuracies have increased significantly the overall assembly accuracy is often governed by the accuracy of connection representations. This webinar will provide an overview of the different kinds of adhesive modeling methods available, from simple 1D element representations to detailed 3D modeling, also including special elements and methods. Through discussion of examples demonstrated with Altair implicit and explicit simulation methods, you will understand which analysis method best fits modeling of adhesives for your product. You will also learn about best practices for adding advanced features like damage & failure to improve accuracy, save time, and ensure the robustness of your models.
