Professional Development Courses -- ASME San Francisco Section

From ASME San Francisco Section January 1998 Newsletter:

ASME Region IX
Professional Development Courses:
Finite Element Analysis

DATE: Saturday, January 24, 1998

TIME: 9:00 am - 4:00 pm Registration begins at 8:30 am

PLACE: San Jose State University Room E-287 Engineering Building

OBJECTIVE This one day course is intended to provide insight into the BASICS of Finite Element Analysis (FEA). There will be a demonstration and a "hands-on" practice session using FEA software available at SJSU.

WHO SHOULD
ATTEND Mechanical, Structural and Electronics Engineers who are responsible for stress, vibration and heat transfer types of analyses. Managers supervising engineers performing mechanical analysis will appreciate the power of this technique and will better understand the work performed by their engineers.

COURSE
OUTLINE Morning and part of the afternoon session will cover the fundamentals of finite element analysis. Overview of FEA for wide range of applications will be presented. Basic steps of performing successful and accurate finite element analysis will be discussed. Demonstration and "hands-on" will be the topics for the afternoon session. Strengths and weaknesses of FEA will be discussed.

INSTRUCTOR Dr. Peter Woytowitz is a Principal Engineer with Engineering Mechanics Technology, Inc., a consulting firm in San Jose, CA. He has taught undergraduate and graduate course in finite element analysis at SJSU and Santa Clara University. He has over twenty years of experience in the use and development of finite element analysis techniques.

FEE: $60 ASME Members
$90 NON-ASME Members
$20 ASME Student Members
Fee includes printed notes and refreshments.
