FEA Misconceptions Cost Manufacturers_MF[4] - .PDF file.

Some product development and manufacturing organizations view finite element analysis (FEA) technology as an afterthought and onsider using FEA software only after product failures. Many designers and engineers have the misperception that FEA packages and simulation tools in general are too difficult to use, requiring a Ph.D.-level education, taking up too much time, and adding little benefit except for finding out why something broke after the fact. Similarly, some business, engineering, and product development managers have the opinion that FEA and simulation solutions are not absolutely necessary for a best-in-class product development process. They believe that FEA is more of a luxury than a mandatory, valuable pillar of product development.
