Abstract

Finite element analysis (FEA) is usually carried out off-site and using computer desktops, i.e., computer-generated graphics, which does not promote a user’s perception and interaction and limits its applications. This chapter first gives an overview of related FEA and AR technologies and presents the feasibility of enhancing finite element structural analysis with AR technology. A novel system has been proposed which integrates sensor measurement, FEA simulation, and scientific visualization into an AR-based environment. This system can acquire input data using sensors and visualize FEA results directly on real-world objects. Several intuitive interaction methods have been developed for enhancing structural investigation and data exploration. A prototype system has been built and tested using several case studies to validate the proposed methods and evaluate the system performance.
