Discover how to make optimal use of load spectra as the key to system-level fatigue analyses in the FVA-Workbench!
In modern gearbox development, precise calculation of component service life is crucial for long-term reliability. Our software offers you the powerful tools you need to perform these calculations efficiently and accurately. This seminar will teach essential fatigue strength calculation methods and provide step-by-step instructions for successfully integrating load spectra into your analyses.
Learn how to use load spectra as an essential tool for optimizing the overall system in order to better understand and simulate the complex loads to which gearboxes are exposed in practice. A highlight of the seminar is a practice-oriented introduction to the differences between scaled and flexible load spectra - two approaches that address different fatigue analysis requirements and challenges in the FVA-Workbench.
In addition to theoretical knowledge, this seminar offers practical exercises and real application examples that make it easier for you to use the software effectively. Learn how to safely perform individual fatigue strength calculations as well as how to optimally define and apply load spectra in the overall system. As a result, you will be ideally equipped to maximize the service life of your gearbox systems and develop more efficient, more durable designs.
Target audience
This seminar is aimed at experienced FVA-Workbench
users who want to take their expertise to the next level. If you already use the software and would like to take full advantage of fatigue strength calculations and load spectrum optimization in your projects, this seminar is for you. Ideal for engineers, calculation professionals, and developers who want to establish themselves as gearbox system analysis experts.
