Insights

Technical notes from our office: simulation, structural analysis, testing.

In these aerospace engineering insights we explain how we work: FEM simulation, structural analysis, fatigue and qualification testing. In fact, we prefer real examples to theory.

Who writes our aerospace engineering insights

Our engineers write the articles, so topics come from client questions. For example: when is a detailed model worth it? How do you read a margin of safety? Why does a test not confirm the analysis?

These aerospace engineering insights also help people who do not run analyses every day. Think of programme managers and technical buyers. As a result, anyone choosing a supplier knows better what to ask for and how to judge a report.

For basic concepts, we link to open sources such as the Wikipedia entry on aerospace engineering. However, when we talk about our projects, we always respect client confidentiality.

Every article has a named author, because whoever signs technical content must stand behind it. For now Pasquale Papa writes most of them, but soon the other engineers will join him. Each article ends with practical advice, so you can apply the method to your own programme. If a topic needs more depth, we split it into a short series rather than one very long page.

Coming next

We have already planned the next topics: test-to-model correlation, bolted joint checks and fatigue with the Transfer Function. In addition, we publish every article in Italian too, because many clients work in international teams.

If there is a subject you are interested in, you can suggest it from the contact page: an engineer answers, not a marketing office.
