Structural Engineering

Structural engineering is a great tool for developing better products.  Our team of experienced structural engineers use the latest in numerical methods to determine the effects of loads on physical structures and their components. We use these results to optimize the design of these components and reduce the time consuming an expensive physical testing.

NLS has partnered with Autodesk to use their Simulation Mechanical as our primary FEA (Finite Element Analysis) tool.  We are using both the local and cloud based versions of the software so we can solve models locally or solve large complex models on the cloud using any number of cores required for the simulation.
