Czech Society for Mechanics
in cooperation with
CTU in Prague
and
Evektor, spol. s r.o.
announce holding of a
Workshop on Computational Fatigue Analysis 2011
&
The 4th PragTic Users' Meeting
Mlýn Brejlov, Břežany, Týnec nad Vltavou, Czech Republic
October 24-26, 2011
Goals of the Meeting
- Provide basic know-how on fatigue damage evaluation on mechanical parts to designers and computational analysts, including a description of methods used for assessing cyclic service loading under simple and complex loading.
- Introduce and present ability of PragTic to serve as a post-processor of an FEA, including demonstrations of solutions, in order to find new individuals and companies interested in using and further developing PragTic.
- Increase awareness of FatLim and FinLiv databases and projects related to them.
- Inform about the latest news concerning the FADOFF consortium development.
PragTic is a freeware tool focused on fatigue analysis based on FEM data. You can find more details concerning this project on www.pragtic.com, where the program can be downloaded.
FatLim & FinLiv MySQL/PhP databases are accessible to any visitor through Internet (http://www.pragtic.com/fatlim.php and http://www.pragtic.com/finliv.php). The main reasons for creating the databases are to
- preserve knowledge on experiments concerning fatigue limits under uniaxial and multiaxial loading;
- validate various computational methods on collected data and present all results;
- provide as far as possible equal access to this data to all researchers and engineers who need it for their work.
FADOFF is an acronym for the Fatigue Analysis Documentation OFFice (http://www.pragtic.com/FADO.php), which is a consortium of the CTU in Prague, Evektor, SKODA VYZKUM and VSB-TU Ostrava aimed at analyzing the situation in the computational methods for:
- multiaxial fatigue analysis
- fatigue prediction on notched structures
FADOFF also takes over the future development of PragTic and related web applications.
More detailed information about the programme will be subsequently published in the section Program.
Conference Language
Czech language is the official language of the lectures. We are leaving the tradition of holding English presentations for dominantly Czech participants. Instead, a separate international IWCFA'12 & IPUM04 workshop is being prepared for May 2012 in Opatija, Croatia. Full information will be provided during November - December 2011.
