In various surveys of NAFEMS members, Education and Training always
comes very high on the list of priorities. In discussions at NAFEMS
Education and Training Working Group (ETWG)
it became apparent that there is a large gap between what is
conventionally taught in an undergraduate engineering degree and
the capability of finite element programs. Consequently, the ETWG
has commissioned many documents for which the intended reader is
the ‘1 year graduate’. This has been defined as a
student who has graduated with a degree in engineering and spent
one year doing linear elastic finite element calculations. Examples
of such documents include: How to Undertake a Contact and Friction
Analysis and How to Undertake a Finite Element Based Thermal
Analysis.
However in addition to these documents, the ETWG is also aware that
there are many pitfalls in undertaking finite element analyses.
Accomplished analysts have learned to avoid many of these
problematic areas through experience accumulated over a number of
years. Few if any analysis, who have reflected on the outcome of
their projects, would be able to say that they had not, either,
made significant mistakes, or, if failed to take account of some
natural phenomenon in their analyses.
