At Predictive Engineering, we specialize in high-fidelity nonlinear and transient dynamic simulations using LS-DYNA. We’ve helped clients across aerospace, military, medical, and consumer products accurately simulate extreme real-world conditions such as burst containment, drop testing, hyperelastic seal design, and fracture analysis all before a single prototype is built. Whether you need to simulate shock loading, component failure, or nonlinear plastic behavior, our digital models help you reduce physical prototyping and ensure compliance to industry codes. With a decades-deep toolbox of validated models and code mastery, we bring your most demanding analysis challenges into clear, testing and data-backed focus.
Over the last 30 years, Predictive Engineering has provided simulation services to tackle some of the most complex applications of ASME BPVC Section VIII "Design-by-Analysis" specifications. Our team specializes in stress, fatigue, and buckling simulations for high-stakes applications using ASME Section VIII, Divisions 1, 2, and 3. With Simecenter Femap/Nastran, we have experience evaluating thick-walled nuclear vessels to assessing the fatigue life of heat exchangers under extreme differential thermal loads to ensure they meet the strictest review standards. By blending ASME BPVC requirements with high-accuracy modeling and customized tools, we hel p classify vessels as “fit-for-service,” often avoiding costly redesigns and ensuring projects pass the most critical engineering reviews.
