SIMULIA fe-safe

Discover the fe-safe Suite, powered by SIMULIA, the finite element model durability analysis software that integrates seamlessly into your design process.

Overview

What is fe-safe?

Durability Analysis Software for Finite Element Models

The fe-safe suite is a cutting-edge technological software suite for durability analysis. From FEA, its capabilities have been enhanced to satisfy the most demanding industry applications, directly linking to all major FEA suites (Abaqus, ANSYS, Nastran (MSC, NEi, NX), Pro/Mechanica).

The market is more demanding than ever for manufacturers to use less material to deliver lightweight but robust components while lowering warranty and recall costs.

fe-safe was the first commercially available fatigue analysis program to focus on modern multiaxial strain-based fatigue methodologies, and it continues to be the industry standard.

Overview

What is fe-safe/Rubber?

fe-safe/Rubber is the first commercially available software tool for rubber and elastomer fatigue analysis.

Because of their macromolecular structure, elastomers exhibit unique behavior and require specialised analysis methods, fe-safe/Rubber investigates elastomer fatigue performance under real-world service conditions.

Verity Module Weld Fatigue Analysis with Simulia fe-safe
Overview

What is the Verity Module in fe-safe?

Verity in fe-safe integrates Verity for welded structure fatigue with the advanced capabilities of fe-safe for finite element model fatigue analysis.

This enables businesses to decrease or eliminate the cost of testing to validate the integrity of designs, as well as avoid the frequent practice of over-engineering due to the uncertainty of fatigue life.

Overview

What is fe-safe/TURBOlife?

fe-safe/TURBOlife is a one-of-a-kind comprehensive creep-fatigue analysis software suite.

fe-safe/TURBOlife creep-fatigue algorithms have been effectively applied to nuclear power plant components, power station boilers, gas turbine blades, and steam turbine components.

fe-safe/TURBOlife is rapidly being implemented in the powertrain industry, where creep and creep fatigue interaction are common in automotive exhaust components and turbocharger impellers.

Safe4Fatigue Simulia
Overview

What is safe4fatigue?

safe4fatigue is a comprehensive system for analysing durability. It analyses actual or generated strain signals, peak-valley files, cycle histograms, and PSDs to give advanced multiaxial fatigue and durability analysis.

safe4fatigue is a free module provided with fe-safe. It gives all the tools required to analyse practical durability applications without the added complexity of complex management systems. Its appealing, simple user interface allows you quick access to complicated analysis techniques. Powerful macro-recording and batch processing can be used to automate repetitive operations.

Regardless of the complexity of your fatigue study, safe4fatigue integrates seamlessly into your design process, allowing you to create products that are built to last.
