- International Fees
International fees are typically 3.25 times the domestic tuition. Exact cost will be calculated upon completion of registration.
Course Overview
In this course, students will learn the tools necessary to model and analyze machine components and structures using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). Students will analyze mechanical objects under static and dynamic loading using SolidWorks Simulation software. Emphasis will be placed on modeling techniques used for FEA structural stress-strain, frequency, and thermal analysis.
