Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis:

System performance studies, force / stress / displacement / strain determination, failure analysis, and dynamic analysis covering the spectrum from large scale thermo-mechanical systems, through biomedical devices, to micro-scale MEMS.

Software Development:

Customized software delivery including new user material models and finite elements for use in standard commercially available finite element packages (e.g. ABAQUS) as well as stand alone packages for specific applications.

Theoretical Developments:

Conduct of applied research projects and small business initiative research. Examples span from the purely technical (e.g. constitutive theory development) to the managerial (e.g. guidance in incorporating research and analysis in new settings/industries).

Seminars & Training:

Technical seminars and training in continuum mechanics and finite element analysis from the introductory through advanced nonlinear analysis.
