FE Model Correlation

What is FE Model Correlation?

  • Compare FE Model results to actual measured test data.

How?

  • Perform modal analysis on test object
  • Import FE analysis results
  • Perform model Transformation of FE model to match test model
  • Compare results

What can be the test object?

  • Small to large components
  • Assemblies

Highlights

  • Supports different methods of correlation
    • Evaluating Modal Assurance (MAC)
    • Quantitative comparison of mode shapes
    • Check Coordinate based MAC (COMAC)
    • Comparison of frequencies or calculated FRF’s
  • Ability to map and synchronize geometry between the test model and the finite element model
  • 3D graph with flexible zoom and rotation ability for easy data analysis
