Project Overview:
Develop a disorientation research device

Customer:
Environmental Tectonics Corporation

Services Performed:
Provided design and analysis for the development of the advanced disorientation research device

Structural Analysis:

  • Generated detailed finite element models (FEMs) of individual components
  • Generated a system level FEM
  • Performed quasi-static analysis for system loads
  • Performed buckling analysis and deflection study
  • Provided global and detailed stress analysis of all components
  • Provided detailed analysis of welded and mechanical joints
  • Performed dynamic disturbance analysis to determine disturbance response due to either external or internal loading

Engineering Design:

  • Created the design model including the arm structure, bulkheads, cross arm, bearing support, support ring and facility interface
  • Generated all detailed design and manufacturing drawings
  • Generated component assembly drawings and top assembly drawings
