Why a Non-linear Course?
Dr. Ted WertheimerDr. Ted Wertheimer has been focused on
Non-linear Finite Element technologies for four
decades, in the fields of material nonlinearities,
manufacturing, thermal sciences and
software architectures. He is one of the core inventors and was
the chief developer of
MSC's Marc finite element program. He holds a BS degree in
Theoretical and Applied
Mechanics from the University of Illinois, and MS and PhD
degrees in Applied Mechanics
from Stanford University.
His development contributions have included contact analysis,
material modeling and
multiphysics. He has taught numerous classes on both practical
and theoretical methods
to creatively apply nonlinear technologies to solve complex
simulation problems, and has
provided endless hours of guidance to colleagues, end-users,
researchers and educators
in its applicaions.
A Journey into
the Non-linear world
3 days of theory and applications
August 26-28, 2015. Chennai, India.
Basic to Advanced
Nature is nonlinear. Although, for our own understanding, we
often look to simplify the world
around us, ultimately we need to come to terms with the fact
that nature and hence engineering
science is inherently nonlinear, either due to material or
geometry effects or other multi-physics
characteristics.
With the increase of hardware capacity and software improvements
in the last decade, the
linearisation of real life engineering problems is no longer
necessary, and more and more virtual
simulations are being performed using nonlinear techniques.
Automotive, aerospace, marine/
naval, defense, construction, biomedical and packaging are just
some of the industries where
nonlinear techniques are used at this moment.
