This free FEA tutorial is for those who are learning finite element analysis, it has worked examples to compare hand calculations with FEA results. We are FEA Consultants and have delivered hundreds of FEA reports to our clients over the years. We have a proven track record of success by verifying design concepts and validation by correlation to actual product testing.
