What we do
FEA Services LLC is a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) consulting company from Charlotte, NC with satellite offices in Nashville, TN and Tucson, AZ. We are highly experienced in the field of Finite Element Analysis, system performance and real-time correlations while serving various industries such as Automotive, Heat Exchangers, Bio-Medical, Semiconductor, Aerospace and others for over 25 years. We excel in high-end nonlinear simulations and various other niche fields of expertise.
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) Consulting
- Structural Fatigue Analysis
- Analysis with highly non-Linear Material
- Analysis with Composite Material
- Complex Contacts and Assemblies
- Analytic Fatigue Assessment
- Post Failure Forensics
- Design and Product Optimization
- Thermal Mechanical Multiphysics Analysis
- Dynamic Response
- Impact or Crash Analysis
FEA Training
We support our customers who are new to Abaqus by providing an introductory Abaqus class suitable to those starting the FEA process for in-house use. Some theory is provided yet the emphasis on hands-on practice using the software is mentored so that the user can walk away and create moderately complex FEA models. We also provide customized training at your request, and, we can also offer self-guided online training on a wide array of topics.
Fatigue Test Optimization
Our unique combination of real world experience with fatigue analysis combined with analytical (FEA) methods can be leveraged in your company to reduce test equipment and time devoted to proving fatigue durability for each production run, or development samples.
FEA Software Sales
We offer and support the SIMULIA Abaqus FEA software suite which includes high level nonlinear Finite Element Analysis capability along with explicit dynamics for a complete multi-physics solution which has been developed into an elegantly simple environment through the development of Abaqus/CAE. Fatigue analysis and product optimization software is also available and is often inclusive in the same package.
- SIMULIA Abaqus (Structural analysis)
- SIMULIA fe-safe (Fatigue)
- SIMULIA Tosca (Optimization)
See the video below for an example of collaboratively using these tools.
Forensics
For projects involving post-failure cases, we have done many precise analysis projects. We collaborate with test labs, partner Forensic Engineers and Metallurgists to study and resolve a wide array of failure related cases. This type of work will often involve fatigue analysis, which is one of our specialties. We can support you with the more common individual part failure investigation, or help you with a full system analysis.

Why we are different
IMPECCABLE SERVICE
Everything we do at FEA Services stems from the vision that our client will be successful. With other options out there, we strive to differentiate ourselves by providing Impeccable Personal Service to meet your needs. More reasons to call FEA Services are provided from our customers on our testimonials page.
FROM NASCAR TO NASA
FEA Services LLC originated in 2000 as “FE Professionals of Charlotte,” where we consulted with NASCAR teams to develop fully 3D Finite Element chassis models which led to improving durability and rigidity of engine components. We consulted with NASCAR officials following the 2001 Daytona 500 regarding chassis modeling technique and requirements for crash analysis.
Since then, we have consulted with companies having expertise over a wide variety of applications from Automotive to Semiconductor to Aerospace supporting NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center and more.

SIMULIA ABAQUS FEA PRODUCT SUITE
The SIMULIA Abaqus product suite consists of its three core products: Abaqus/Standard, Abaqus/Explicit and Abaqus/CAE (Complete Abaqus Environment). Also, with the new “Extended” products packaging, fatigue analysis with fe-safe and design optimization with Tosca are also provided at no extra up-charge.
Abaqus/Standard provides analysis technology to solve traditional implicit finite element analysis, including static, dynamic and thermal analyses, yet powered with the widest range of contact and other nonlinear options since the base code was originally written with nonlinear equations at the foundation.
Abaqus/Explicit provides Abaqus analysis technology focused on transient dynamics and quasi-static analysis using an explicit time integration, which is appropriate in many applications, such as drop tests, crushing, manufacturing processes or progressive failure simulation. Both Abaqus/Standard and Abaqus/Explicit can integrate with third party software or incorporate user subroutines for nearly limitless possibilities to simulate reality.
Abaqus/CAE provides a complete modeling and visualization environment for Abaqus analysis products. With access to CAD models, advanced meshing and visualization and the direct link Abaqus workflows, Abaqus/CAE provides an elegantly simple modeling environment for even complex simulations.
EXTENDED PRODUCTS
The fatigue analysis software, fe-safe, is the technical leader in fatigue analysis software used by leading companies in automotive, marine, defense, offshore, power generation, wind energy, medical, and many other industries. It is a powerful yet also easy to use with Finite Element models and provides reliable, accurate fatigue life predictions regardless of the complexity of the analysis.
Design optimization with Tosca, which can also support nonlinear features, is a flexible, modular software system for non-parametric structural optimization that provides topology, sizing, shape and bead optimization using industry standard finite element solvers.
FULL MULTIPHYSICS CAPABILITY
Given the depth of its implicit and explicit solvers and its nonlinear foundations, most real world events can be simulated with Abaqus. The broad range of multiphysics capabilities includes fluid-structural interaction (FSI) solutions using XFLOW or other third party codes, such as StarCCM. Many other multiphysics simulations, such as with electromagnetics, is also fully supported. Of course, thermal-mechanical analysis has been a long time standard for Abaqus and in fact was the motivation for the initial program development.
