Predict the response. Inform the design.
Simulated Solutions is an engineering analysis consultancy specialising in finite element analysis. We work alongside engineering teams to provide detailed insight into structural behaviour under a wide range of loading conditions, evaluate design options and inform engineering decisions throughout the development process, from initial concept through optimisation, verification and certification.
Our analysts combine practical engineering judgement with advanced numerical methods to deliver technically robust results. By clearly communicating the assumptions, limitations and implications of our analyses, we provide the engineering evidence needed to support informed design decisions.

Specialist simulation for demanding engineering problems.
From high-rate transient events to quasi-static non-linear behaviour, we select modelling methods around the engineering question — not the other way around.

Under the hood of engineering simulation
Technical articles exploring analysis methods, modelling choices and the interpretation of results.
How loading rate, stability and non-linearity influence the right solution strategy.
Material, geometric and contact non-linearity — and why each changes structural response.
Why the peak stress value is often not the most useful result when evaluating structural response.
Fundamentals & Application of FEA
NAFEMS-recognised, code-independent training designed to develop a practical understanding of finite element analysis through illustrative examples of linear and non-linear structural response in steel structures.
The course introduces material failure theories, methods for assessing bolted and welded connections, and the significance of resonance when structures are subjected to dynamic loading.
“Excellent course, Chris Brooks has a wealth of experience and knowledge which is evident throughout his delivery of the Fundamentals & Application of FEA.”
