Analysis and simulation are well catered for within the CATIA environment. The modular nature of CATIA allows the Designer or Analysis specialist to choose the analysis tool most suited to their needs.

FEA Stress Analysis

At Quest we use advanced visualization tools for rapid inspection of analysis results, also allowing us to perform static stress and modal analysis on your parts and assemblies.

Analysis Solutions

Part Structural Analysis:

Allows designers to perform first-level part stress and part vibration analysis for pre-validation:

• Its transparent, integrated and automatic approach offers a very intuitive environment.

• The analysis is based on interactions with just the physical definition of the part and its environment - as opposed to interacting with an FEM model.

• As an integrated product, it can be used co-operatively with Part Design for associative analysis specifications with design changes, enabling users to produce high quality designs in a very short time.

• Thus, it makes the power of finite element analysis accessible to the non-FEA specialist.

Assembly Structural Analysis:

Performs first-level stress analysis and vibration analysis for pre-validation of assemblies of parts:

• It makes it possible to establish connections between various parts in an assembly.

• The analysis computation takes into account the specified behavior of the assembly.

• The ease of problem definition provides the possibility to perform numerous analyses of complex assemblies during the iterative assembly design process.
