Harnessing the Power of Finite Element Analysis
Part 2: Structural Analysis
By Amin Moghaddas
Structural analysis is a critical component of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) that focuses on assessing the performance of structures under various loads and conditions. It allows engineers to refine designs, reduce material usage, and enhance performance while minimizing the need for costly physical prototypes.

Structural analysis is especially useful in industries such as automotive, and aerospace, where it addresses complex geometries and material behaviors, ensuring reliable and efficient designs. By simulating real-world scenarios, we can predict potential failure points and optimize designs for safety and durability.
At EWI, our expertise not only ensures that your projects are functional and resilient but also helps you save time and resources by using FEA to Identify any issues in designs before manufacturing. If you’re interested shortening the product development time while reducing testing and redesign costs, please contact [email protected] to discuss how we can use our FEA tools to assist you!
