In advanced engineering circles, the finite element method — or, more commonly, finite element analysis — is a real staple. With the advent of more powerful home computers, though, even your home ...

When it comes to FDM 3D prints and making them stronger, most of the focus is on the outer walls and factors like their layer adhesion. However, paying some attention to the often-ignored insides of a ...

In 2013, Boeing rolled out the first 787-9 Dreamliner, the newest member of the super-efficient 787 family. In order to power this massive aircraft, Rolls-Royce designed the state of the art Trent ...

What is Finite Element Analysis? The finite element analysis is an extensively used method for computationally solving partial differential equations in technology and mathematics. The classic domains ...

In 2001, IBM patented a method of using a double bump material structure to make a reliable joint between a chip and its package for bump pitch below 150 µm. 1 This invention improved the existing ...

A very basic example of this can be noted in certain oldest applications of finite elements. More than 2000 years earlier, geometers were keen on finding out the circumference and area of a circle.
