Default CAD work?

Any engineers on board able to look at a simple part drawing and perhaps program it to do a stress analysis? Need to rework an eye-bolt due to clearance issues.

Yeah, I’m a stress analyst for one of the big aerospace OEMs, and I think there are other engineers around these parts. I’m looking at a big FEM right now actually...

What are the details?

I'm a CAE engineer for body/chassis strength & durability at an OEM. I'd be happy to help out if needed.

if the part is simple enough and you can estimate the loads there's probably no need to do FEA..
