Stress Singularities

How to report FEM based stress singularities

This course describes the common causes of stress singularities in finite element models and engineering approaches to justify ignoring the numerical results that show parts of the model above the yield or ultimate strength of the material. Engineering approaches including net section analysis, Neuber’s method, non-linear analysis, detailed bolted joint, and fitting analysis will be described with real world examples.

The next offering of this course is not currently scheduled. If you are interested, please contact us below and we will schedule it for you.
