Features: I-DEAS software is one of the most widely used large-scale CAD/CAM/CAE integrated software in both domestic and international markets, with strong finite element analysis capabilities. However, there is currently a lack of systematic teaching materials on its finite element analysis functions in the market, making it difficult for users to achieve in-depth learning and use of the software. During the process of learning and applying various foreign software, the authors of this book have summarized the more challenging content and compiled it into this tutorial. The content includes seven major parts: assembly finite element analysis, variational analysis, adaptive analysis, finite element analysis of composite layup materials, response analysis, nonlinear statics analysis, and P-method linear statics analysis. The book focuses on explaining software application methods while also introducing relevant theories, making it suitable for intermediate and advanced users of I-DEAS finite element analysis software, as well as professionals in the field of finite element analysis for reference. With the rapid development of software technology, during the writing of this book, I-DEAS software has undergone two version updates. The authors have strived to make the book applicable to multiple versions of the software while reflecting its latest advancements. The example steps in the book are provided for NT version I-DEAS 9.0.
