Improves design quality
Shorten the design process time
More effective internal design reviews
Detect design problems earlier
Easily incorporate late design changes
Electrical and mechanical system design
No questions of what the final design will be
Visualize more 'what-if' scenarios during the design process
Eliminates the need for costly physical prototypes and testing
Provide design alternatives before project costs are committed
Allow non-technical personnel to gain a better understanding of design intent
6
Finite Element Analysis - FEA
Using FEA we are able to use the computer model and run a variety of test to
verify a proposed design will perform to specifications without possible problems.
Types of analysis we are able to perform
• Thermal analysis
• Structural stress analysis
• Vibration analysis
• Fatigue analysis
• Electromagnetic analysis
Thermal Analysis Run on the Tactical Data Network - TDN
Benefits of using FEA
• Identifies a broad range of potential problems
• Better insight into critical design parameters
• Analyze a given set of loading conditions
• Verifying the fitness of existing systems
• Evaluating new concepts
Structural Stress Analysis
7
Human Factors Engineering - HFE
Our human factors professionals take the system’s computer model through a series
of specific analyses to ensure people can use the system safely and efficiently.
Types of analysis we are able to perform
• User-centered requirements analysis
• Mission analysis
• Task & function analysis
• Critical task analysis
• Workload analysis
Benefits of using HFE
• HFE is a Department of Defense requirement
• Reduces human error
• Inputs can guide design decisions
• Identify problems of an existing system
• Adapt/design work stations to improve
operational performance and safety
