Presentación de la empresa
Z.Ma Research and Consulting is a structures and strength consultant specializing in using complex simulation technologies.
The Challenge
To determine the durability of powder-actuated fasteners used in the installation of steel roofing systems at ambient and fire temperatures without relying on physical testing.
La respuesta de Dassault Systèmes
Abaqus FEA validated experimental outcomes for a highly complex nonlinear civil and mechanical engineering problem under combined thermal and mechanical loading with progressive failure prediction.
