The finite element method (FEM) is the dominant discretization technique in structural mechanics. The basic concept in the physical interpretation of the FEM is the subdivision of the mathematical model into disjoint (non-overlapping) components of simple geometry called finite elements or elements for short.

Our engineers are committed to quality. A finite element analysis is only as good as the accuracy of the geometry, boundary conditions, load characterization, and material properties assigned. Our analysts' design experience produce advanced 3D CAD and FEA models with properly integrated meshes for precise structural, fluid, and thermal representations. Our validity checks include convergence analysis, review of constraints, loads, and when needed, additional codes or analytical solutions to provide confidence in our results.

Our experts perform:

• Solid Mesh – Hexa / Tetra
• Shell Mesh – Midplane

We at Mindglow, have robust process & tools for  best quality mesh and productivity improvement backed by In-house Testing and Failure Analysis Experts. Team has best of best knowledge on type & quality of mesh for different analysis requirements

International Material Data System-IMDS / ROHS

As part of our automotive service portfolio, we support IMDS data sheet creation for enabling component compliance to End Of Life of Vehicle ELV-norms.

Our IMDS team is composed of automotive domain leaders and engineers to create, validate and store MDS data. We have trained our team to be experts in understanding the ELV directive for creation of MDS data and eliminate levels of checks.

Our Automotive SMEs are experts with various automotive standards for ELV standards per regulations in the United States, Europe and APAC – IMDS, REACH, RoHS

Automated data migration

CAD Translation service provides the convenience of a quality feature based CAD translation or neutral (B-rep) CAD file translations on a fee-per-file or fee-per-project basis. This allows companies without multiple CAD systems required for a feature based translation, or a direct translator with healing capabilities access to the quality and value of translations without the upfront expense of purchasing, learning and maintaining new software.

Supported Translations

Feature based translations (history tree remains intact and available for feature modifications) are available between CATIA (both v4 and v5), Pro/Engineer, Unigraphics, I-deas, and SolidWorks (for all versions listed below)

Neutral or B-rep translations (history tree is collapsed to a single feature – the model) include: native inputs and outputs for CATIA v4 and v5; Pro/Engineer; Creo; Unigraphics; I-deas; SolidWorks; Inventor; Mechanical Desktop; AutoCAD; CADDS; Euclid; SolidEdge;

Standard extensions supported: .stp (STEP); .igs (IGES); .x_t (Parasolid); .sat (Acis); .stl; .set; .jt

Translated or Re-mastered Model Analysis

The customer can request an analysis tolerance and resolution. The MMC will find any discrepancies greater than the requested tolerance and will display these as a series of points on the translated or re-mastered model. These points can be measured to any surface or edge. The points can be simply deleted from the model tree once it is fixed or no longer required.
