Structural Safety and Advanced Analysis Solutions in the Defense Industry


High-Fidelity Engineering Analyses for Land, Air, and Naval Platforms

Defense industry platforms are exposed to significantly harsher operating conditions compared to civilian systems due to their mission-critical nature. Structural components used in land, air, and naval platforms must withstand shock loads, ballistic threats, explosions, vibration, and long-term fatigue effects without compromising operational safety.

FE-TECH Advanced Engineering delivers high-fidelity numerical analysis solutions for defense industry projects, ensuring structural safety, durability, and compliance with international military standards through digitally verified engineering methodologies.

Compliance with International Military Standards

All analyses conducted by FE-TECH are performed in accordance with internationally recognized defense standards, including:

MIL-STD-810G

STANAG 4569

VDI 2230

These standards define the environmental, ballistic, dynamic, and structural requirements necessary to validate military platforms under real operational conditions.

Shock, Ballistic, and Bird Strike Analyses

Shock Analyses

Defense platforms are subjected to high-acceleration shock loads caused by explosions, impacts, and sudden maneuvers. Shock analyses evaluate:

Acceleration and stress distributions in critical components

Damage risks to mechanical and electronic subsystems

Structural integrity of joints and mounting interfaces

allowing potential failures to be identified at early design stages.

Ballistic Analyses

Ballistic analyses assess the structural response of armor and protective components under high-velocity projectile and fragment impacts. These simulations provide insight into:

Penetration and perforation behavior

Energy absorption mechanisms

Damage propagation and permanent deformation

ensuring survivability against ballistic threats.

Bird Strike Analyses

Bird strike analyses are especially critical for air platforms. High-speed impact simulations evaluate the structural response of wings, fuselage, and engine components, ensuring compliance with safety requirements during flight operations.

Modal, Vibration, and Vibration-Based Fatigue Analyses

Natural Frequency (Modal) Analyses

Modal analyses determine the natural frequencies and mode shapes of structures to prevent resonance phenomena. These analyses enable:

Identification of critical vibration modes

Resonance risk assessment

Structural stiffness optimization

for safe and reliable operation.

Vibration and Vibration-Based Fatigue Analyses

Long-term exposure to vibration significantly affects structural durability. FETECH performs vibration-based fatigue analyses to evaluate:

Fatigue life prediction under operational vibration spectra

Identification of critical fatigue-sensitive regions

Optimization of maintenance and inspection intervals

Structural Strength, Impact, and Explosion Analyses

Structural Strength Analyses

Structural strength analyses evaluate load-carrying components under static and dynamic loading conditions. These studies provide:

Safety factor assessment

Permanent deformation risk evaluation

Weight-to-strength optimization

supporting robust and efficient designs.

Impact and Collision Analyses

Collision and impact analyses simulate real-world crash and contact scenarios using high-fidelity finite element models. These analyses assess energy absorption and structural integrity for both manned and unmanned defense platforms.

Mine Blast Analyses: Underbody and Plate-Based Scenarios

Underbody Mine Blast Analyses

Underbody mine blasts represent one of the most severe threats to land platforms. These analyses evaluate:

Hull deformation behavior

Acceleration transmission to occupants

Structural damage mechanisms

to enhance survivability and crew protection.

Plate-Based Mine Blast Analyses

Protective armor plates and structural panels are assessed under blast loading conditions to analyze:

Blast pressure distribution

Energy redirection effects

Structural failure mechanisms

supporting optimized armor system designs.

Static and Dynamic Firing Analyses

Weapon systems and platform integrations generate significant recoil forces and transient dynamic loads. FE-TECH conducts static and dynamic firing analyses to evaluate:

Load transfer during firing events

Structural safety of mounting and connection regions

Long-term structural effects caused by repetitive firing

ensuring reliable system performance.
