In this edition of S.A.F.E.R. Simulation Views we asked Brent Lancaster, ESRD’s Principal Support Engineer, about the basics of StressCheck^® Professional. Learn why it was developed, what it supports, how to master it, and more!

Good news, everyone! We are working hard to finalize StressCheck^® Professional v10.5, and we’d like to share some of the latest features and enhancements users can expect to see in the next release (anticipated for Spring 2019)

ESRD, Inc. will be exhibiting and providing a training course on verifying the accuracy of engineering simulations at the AA&S/PS&S Conference 2019 in Washington, D.C. from April 22-26, 2019. We hope you will drop by our training course and booth to check out the latest!

In this S.A.F.E.R. Simulation post, we’ll explore Five Key Quality Checks for verifying the accuracy of FEA solutions. To help us drive the conversation in a practical manner, we selected a widely available and well understood benchmark problem to model, solve and perform each Key Quality Check using ESRD’s flagship FEA software, StressCheck^® Professional.

We need your vote!  ESRD is planning a Summer 2019 webinar on a “hot” Aerospace & Defense application, modeling best practice or StressCheck^® feature, and we are requesting your participation in selecting the next topic.

Additionally, ESRD is hiring engineers! Check out the job postings at the end of the survey.

On Wednesday, January 16, 2019 a webinar titled “How Do You Verify the Accuracy of Engineering Simulations?” was provided by ESRD’s Gordon Lehman and Brent Lancaster.

In case you missed it, the webinar recording is now available!

This past week at ASIP 2018, ESRD provided a training course titled “Modeling Fastened Connections: Hierarchic Approaches Discussion and Demo”, chatted with ASIP attendees, provided StressCheck^® demos, and exhibited at our booth.

Read the summary of events and download the ASIP training course presentation, demo video and selected StressCheck^® model files!

Last month we asked our FEA-minded engineering community how we should improve StressCheck^® Professional, and the results are in! Find out what was most important to your fellow StressCheck^® users and FEA enthusiasts.
