SAEINDIA Application of Finite Element Analysis (Automotive Parts & System)

Warm Greetings from SAEINDIA Southern Section!!!

We are glad to inform you that we are conducting a Students Knowledge Improvement Program (SKIP), program on the topic “Application of Finite Element Analysis (Automotive Parts & System)” on 17th & 18th October 2014 at Anna University, Guindy.

Please find the details below.
 
Dr. V. Ramamurti
Prof. V. Ramamurti got his PhD from IIT, Madras in the year 1970. He worked with IIT Madras between 1966 and 2001.He was a Professor between 1977 and 2001. He was the Head of the Department of Applied Mechanics between 1978 and 1981. He was INSA Senior Scientist at AUFRG CAD/CAM Centre, Anna University between 2005 and 2009.
 
Prof V. Ramamurti was with the Institute of Mechanics TU, Hannover, Germany between 1971 and 1973. On sabbatical leave he was a Senior Research Associate of NRC at NASA Lewis Research Centre, Cleveland, USA between 1981 and 1983.He was a visiting Professor of Mechanical Engineering in the US, Canada and Kuwait between 1991 and 1993.He was a Visiting Professor at UT Austin, USA in 1999. He was a Visiting Professor of Mechanical and Production Engineering in NANYANG Technological University, Singapore between 2001 and 2002.
 
Professor VR's career in Industry started as a Machine Tools Engineer in Heavy Engineering Division, KCP Limited between 1963 and 1966. He has been a retainer Consultant to Power, Process and Heavy Engineering Industries (12 of them) for forty years.
 
Prof. V. Ramamurti is involved in design problems of industries like KCP Group - Chennai, TVS Group - Chennai, Nuclear power Corporation - Mumbai, Tata Research and Development Centre - Pune, GE (INDIA) - Bangalore and L&T e Engineering Solutions- Chennai and Bangalore.
 
Prof V. Ramamurti has guided 25 Ph D's and has over 185 International Journal Publications. He has written 5 books, all of them published in India and abroad. (TATA Mc Graw Hill, India and Mc Graw Hill, USA, NAROSA India and Alpha Sciences International UK)  The book of relevance to this short term course "Finite Element Method in Machine Design" was published by Narosa India in 2009 and revised in 2012.
 
Prof VR has been elected Fellow of Indian National Science Academy, Indian National Academy of Engineering and Indian Academy of Sciences. He has received Import Substitution Award in 1973, Vasvik Award in Mechanical Engineering in 1983, INSA Hussain Zaheer Medal in 1995 and INSA Biren Roy Medal in 2007. He was chosen as a distinguished alumnus of IIT, Karagpur in the year 2012 during its diamond jubilee celebrations.
 
About the Course
This course is about application of FEA to automotive situations.  This is not a course on teaching FEA (Mathematical Formulation).  Course will be through instruction, case studies.
The participants are encouraged to bring their own problems for discussions.
 
Course Content
DAY 1
Relevance of Finite element method in Indian Industry, Indian Scenario, Precautions in the use of packages. Choice of common elements and their appropriateness.
 
Day 2
Static, Eigenvalue, Transient and Random vibration Problems with application in Mechanical Engineering, case studies of problems solved for the Indian Industry covering Automobile, Process and Power Sectors.
 
Objectives
The automotive industry has understood the need for Finite Element Analysis and Finite Element Analyst for some time now. Wide range of software packages are available to carry out FEA with ease. Consequently Finite Element Analysis is being widely used by many industries and especially the usage is unlimited in automotive industries.
However, there is considerable lack of understanding of formulating problems for FEA and interpreting the results. This program is designed to bring in better understanding of formulation and interpretation.
 
Benefits of attending this course
 
Since the course is handled by a person who is a reputed teacher with specialisation in finite element method and who has forty years of industrial experience in solving field problems, the lectures will give invaluable information to youngsters who have an urge to take this art as a profession.
•          Select preferable modeling approaches
•          Analyse errors inherent to FEA results
•          Identify FEA advantages and shortcomings
•          Avoid mistakes and pitfalls in FEA
•          Ensure quality and cost effectiveness of FEA projects
 
Who should attend?
The students studying in pre-final year and final year in Mechanical/ Automobile/Aeronautical/allied stream of Mechanical engineering should attend the program. This program is designed for practicing Finite Element Analysis in under graduate level.
 SKIP program is very useful for the students who are having FEA as one of their subject. Same time SKIP is beneficial for Design team members involving in Baja, Supra, FSAE, Go-Kart, Solar Vehicle etc.,
 
Topic         :  “Application of Finite Element Analysis (Automotive Parts & System)”
