How to integrate strength and durability analysis in simulation for industrial machinery
Learn how to use efficient workflows and how to get to the real loads
Finite Element analysis is well established in the development cycle. However, bridging the gap between simulation results and real-world strength and durability poses a significant challenge. Engineers often find themselves manually extracting stress data and navigating through various tools to ascertain whether a simulated component or system meets the necessary criteria. In this webinar, we show how these workflows can be optimized such that you get these results efficiently and in a robust way. Furthermore, we'll tackle a common obstacle: acquiring precise loads for detailed fatigue analysis.
In the second part of this webinar, we show a new simulation technology to “measure the unmeasurable” and get and apply the loads for a fatigue analysis directly from measurements.
In this webinar, designers and engineers will learn to:
- How to get from stress results informative results on strength
- Save a lot of time by integrating the strength and durability workflows with structural analysis
- Get the loads that are acting on a component by easy-to-access measurements
- Integrate the workflow of structural analysis, measurements, load prediction and durability
- Design parts efficiently with respect to their strength and durability

Dr. Michael Hack
Business product line manager for durability solutions
Dr. Michael Hack is business product line manager for the durability simulation products in Siemens Digital Industries Software. He graduated in applied and computational mathematics (Diplom-Technomathematiker) at the University of Kaiserslautern in Nov. 1992. where in Mai 1998 he obtained his PhD. The PhD research was in common projects with TecMath GmbH which was acquired by LMS International in 1997. He worked at LMS in method development and as development manager. From 2000 onwards he switched to product management. As product line manager for the durability product line in the simulation division of LMS he followed numerous research projects and published on hysteresis operators, rainflow counting, thermal fatigue, reliability and optimization topics. When LMS was acquired by Siemens in 2013 he stayed in this role with an even stronger counterpart in the Siemens research and development teams, new research topics are fatigue of new materials, composites and influence of new production processes like additive manufacturing.
He is engaged in local politics – from 2009-2019 he was deputy mayor – and ecclesiastical activities.
