F E Associates helps innovative customers take the next step
in mechanical engineering development and analysis-based process control.
F E Associates is a value-added
reseller of MSC Software Inc. engineering applications and consulting
services. With the world's largest portfolio of computer assisted
engineering tools, the world-standard MSC Patran and Nastran
applications, and the world's largest supporting consultants, FEA is
your one stop for structural and mechanical engineering support.
F E Associates is a leading
developer of embedded engineering applications based on finite element
analysis, including ARPPAS, automated engineering tools for
interactively analyzing composite
aircraft part repair requirements, specifications, and plans.
ARPPAS calculates the specifications for repair fixture setups
that compensate for self-induced deformations of composite part repairs, assuring
a perfect fit of the repaired part on the airframe. Developed under US DOD SBIR
contracts, ARPPAS enables users with no specialized engineering knowledge,
such as mechanics, business analysts, and logistics managers, to
automatically calculate self-induced composite part repair deformations,
strains, and stresses and better manage composite part repair logistics
and spare parts inventory. ARPPAS can be readily adapted to other
applications as well, such as engineering analysis-based process and
manufacturing control.
F E Associates also
offers the business acumen and experience to translate these exciting
new technologies into high rates of return on investment by reducing
scrap and rework, reducing the numbers of engineering prototypes, and
accelerating time to market and profitability. From business and
investment planning to GUI design and finite element analysis, FEA can help you get the
best return from your scarce
capital.
