Service 03 of 08

Mechanical Analysis

Engineering calculations, stress checks and design optimisation that show whether a design will hold up, and where it can be made lighter, simpler or cheaper.

Who it helps

  • Designers who need calculations to support or validate a design
  • Teams investigating a failure or an under-performing component
  • Projects that require documented, code-referenced calculations

Software

Microsoft Excel, Python

Overview

What the service covers

Mechanical analysis at INSPIREWORKSS covers the engineering calculations behind a design: design calculations for mechanical work, stress checks for mechanical parts, design optimisation, and root-cause investigation when something has already gone wrong. Calculations are documented so they are easy to review and check, and repeated work can be automated in Excel or Python.

What's included

  • Design calculations for mechanical work
  • Stress checks to confirm a design will hold up
  • Design optimisation for performance, cost and manufacturability
  • Root-cause analysis of failed or under-performing components
  • Calculation tools and automation in Excel and Python

FAQ

Common questions

What kind of engineering calculations do you do?

Design calculations for mechanical work, stress checks for mechanical parts, design optimisation and root-cause analysis.

Can you help when a part has failed?

Yes. Root-cause analysis looks at why a component failed or under-performed, and what to change so it does not happen again.

How are calculations delivered?

As clearly documented calculations that are easy to review and check. Repeated calculations can be automated in Excel or Python.
