******************* Course Structure  ***************************

If you are beginner in CAE, I will highly recommend you to first complete my course:

1. On hypermesh : titled "Complete Altair Hypermesh & Optistruct Course". 

                                                                  OR

2. On ANSA : titled "Complete Course on Preprocessing using ANSA" . 

This course is intended for the people who are already working in CAE or for those who knows any preprocessing tools such as hypermesh or ansa.

Main theme of the course is Non-Linear analysis. Course takes you on step by step journey in which you will get deeper

understanding on working professionals uses Abaqus to solve physical problems. For most options along with the implementation their theory and repercussions of changing various parameters on results have been discussed in depth.

Below is the brief outline of the course and various modules involved in the course.
