Course Title: (PAT301) Seminar Class:

Computer Based Modeling for Design and Analysis with Patran

PAT301 is the introductory course for new Patran users. Students will master the basic skills required to
use Patran in typical MCAE applications. PAT301 emphasizes practical skills development through comprehensive, hands-on laboratory sessions. Students will learn to build analysis models using Patran,
define material properties, create boundary conditions, apply loads, and submit their job for analysis and postprocess results.

Topics

Take a model through the complete design and analysis cycle
Import CAD geometry and use it to create new geometry in Patran
Learn graphics manipulation, imaging, and viewing techniques
Practice using the different meshing techniques: isomesher, paver, and tetmesher
Verify your finite element model

Apply loads and boundary conditions
Learn advanced techniques:
Apply distributed pressure loads
Vary thicknesses
Use groups and lists to filter and group entities
Submit analysis
View and manipulate results

Duration

5 Days

Prerequisites

A basic knowledge of statics and strength of materials is recommended
