TONY ABBEY · NAFEMS E-LEARNING

NAFEMS Courses.
Practical engineering understanding.

Develop the knowledge and judgement behind a reliable finite element analysis.

These are the courses I have developed and present in partnership with NAFEMS. They connect the underlying principles with modelling choices, engineering examples and the interpretation of results.
