Life-Prediction Analysis
(FEA + ERICA / CERAMIC + CARES)

 

Photographs of Valve and same Valve modeled in FEA

 

 

 



Work station with two life-prediction algorithms for performing finite-element analysis (FEA) and reliability modeling work to predict probability of component survivability in known service environment and stress level:

 

Mechanical test data from standard specimens. FEA data for stress in actual components.

 

FEA support provided for other mechanical testing of monolithic ceramics and composites.
