New test tools shorten time-to-market process for aircraft and car makers

摘要

Briiel & Kjaer's advanced test-FEA integration tools allow aircraft and vehicle manufacturers to speed up their time-to-market process by optimising strategies ior testing physical models and improving the development of FE models. As part of its latest data analysis platform - PULSE 16.1 - the PULSF. Reflex Modal Analysis software has been enhanced with FE interfaces for importing FE models from various leading FEA programs, such as NASTRAN® and ANSYS® or as UFF flies. The Finite Element Analysis (FEA) results are usrful for test planning, as the modes can be animated to indicate frequency range of interest, mode density and critical modes for the modal test These animations also help users choose optimal excitation and response locations for the modal test.
