Stress and margin
Review equivalent and principal stress against allowable criteria to locate weak regions and quantify design margin.
STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
Turn structural analysis into
engineering decisions.
Structural analysis determines how equipment and components deform, where stress concentrates, and whether stiffness and safety requirements are met. UGPIA connects CAD geometry, analysis conditions, solver execution, and result review through one Analysis Model.

ANALYSIS SCOPE
What the analysis evaluates
Deformation and stiffness
Assess total and directional displacement against assembly accuracy, interference, and functional requirements.
Buckling and stability
Evaluate the stability of frames, thin structures, and components exposed to compressive loading.
PROCESS
Structural analysis workflow
Structural analysis determines how equipment and components deform, where stress concentrates, and whether stiffness and safety requirements are met. UGPIA connects CAD geometry, analysis conditions, solver execution, and result review through one Analysis Model.
- 01
Prepare geometry
Simplify CAD for the analysis objective and identify contacts, joints, and critical regions.
- 02
Configure conditions
Define materials, loads, constraints, contacts, and meshing criteria in the Analysis Model.
- 03
Run analysis
Connect the required solver for linear static, buckling, modal, or related structural studies.
- 04
Validate results
Check singularities and reaction balance, then compare the response with engineering criteria.
APPLICATIONS
Typical applications
- Semiconductor equipment frames and chambers
- Battery packs and trays
- Robot links and automation equipment
- Pressure equipment and mechanical components
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What information is needed for structural analysis?
The objective, CAD geometry, material properties, loads, constraints, and acceptance criteria are the basic inputs. Assumptions and scope should be explicit when information is incomplete.
Is the maximum stress value enough?
No. The cause of stress concentration, mesh dependence, load path, reaction balance, and applicable design criteria must also be reviewed.
