Plug-in libraries and customised solutions that expand the capabilities of the standard SC03 automatic analysis system

Optimisation

  • Applications include fan blade and aerofoil shape optimisation or blade root firtree design
  • 2D and 3D optimisation
  • Integration with popular iSIGHT software

Lifting

  • Strain based component lifting plug-in
  • Failure mechanism analysis capability includes LF (low cycle fatigue), creep, oxidation / hot corrosion and coating integrity
  • Radical creep growth for rotating components
  • Crack propagation analysis

Thermal Analysis Toolkit

  • General thermal analysis utilities including heat transfer coefficient correlations and boundary condition comparisons
  • Capability for coupling SC03 with commercial CFD codes (particularly FLUENT) for fully coupled 2D or 3D analysis

Vibration and Damping

  • Damping calculations from visco-elastic materials and hard coatings
  • Response of mistuned and tuned bladed discs.

Experimental and Instrumentation

  • Read in experimental data from pyrometry, thermal paint analysis or other sources, and compare with FE result
  • Optimise the positioning of multiple strain gauges and correlate the analysis with experiment.
