Trend Tracking

FEA Trend Tracking & Parametric Studies

Beyond single-point simulations, a deeper understanding comes from analysing how performance changes in response to design modifications. At CAD FEA Solutions, we leverage Trend Tracking and Parametric Studies to move beyond analysing a design to understanding the behaviour of the design. This data-driven approach empowers you to make informed decisions, accelerate development, and achieve truly optimised results.

Parametric "What-If" Analysis

  • Systematic Design Variation

    We conduct automated “what-if” scenarios by systematically varying key design parameters, such as geometry dimensions, material properties, or load magnitudes. This allows us to efficiently explore a wide range of design possibilities without manual, one-by-one simulations.

  • Performance Trend Identification

    By analysing the results from these parametric studies, our team identifies critical trends and relationships. For example, we can plot how increasing a wall thickness affects both stress and overall weight, providing a clear visualisation of the design trade-offs.

Predictive Modelling & Design Optimisation

  • Predictive Performance Models

    The trend data from our analysis allows for the creation of predictive performance models. These models can help forecast how the design will behave under conditions that haven’t been explicitly simulated, guiding you toward the most promising design avenues.

  • Data-Driven Design Optimisation

    Our analysis provides the insights needed for true design optimisation. By understanding the trends, you can confidently refine your design to meet multiple objectives simultaneously—such as maximising strength while minimising weight and cost.

An Integrated Approach to Continuous Improvement

  • Informing Future Design Cycles

    The insights gained from trend tracking create a valuable knowledge base. This informs continuous improvement in future design cycles and manufacturing processes, ensuring ongoing refinement and a competitive edge.

  • Proactive Risk Assessment

    By understanding performance trends, we can help identify potential risks early in the development process. This enables you to implement proactive mitigation strategies, enhancing safety and reliability long before production begins.
