This site has articles about stress analysis and other aspects of mechanical CAE, as well as my software stressRefine. StressRefine automatically extracts more accurate stresses from finite element models without remeshing (see the software page).
I am a mechanical engineer, Ph.D. Stanford, 1980, and was co-inventor and one of the lead developers of Mechanica, a pioneering easy to use p-adaptive finite element code. More details on my background are on the about page.
I am a Mechanical Engineer born in 1953, Ph. D, Stanford, 1980. I have been active in the mechanical CAE field for decades. I also have a lifelong interest in outdoor activities and fitness. I have had both hips replaced and a heart valve replacement due to a genetic condition. This blog chronicles my adventures in staying active despite these bumps in the road.
