Applied Element Method Theory and Application

This course is designed specifically for pre-approved Research and Development activities and Academic Universities. This curriculum is more specifically for those who require an understanding of the physics and methodology behind Extreme Loading® Technology to pursue research and analysis activities and is not intended for commercial use. (By appointment)

Course Description
Applied Element Method (AEM) Theory and Application

Designed exclusively for pre-approved Research and Development activities and Academic Universities the course curriculum has been created specifically for those requiring an understanding of the physics, principles, and methodology behind Extreme Loading® Technology (ELT) and wishing to pursue research and analysis activities.  It is not intended for commercial use.  Participants will discuss all technical aspects of AEM.  This course is scheduled by appointment only.

Verification Samples & Simulations

Participants will be introduced to numerous verification samples and simulations using Extreme Loading for Structures software which implements the AEM technology.  Seismic and blast analysis, immaculate element removal (IER), glass analysis and other extreme loading events and capabilities will be presented for discussion and analysis purposes.

ELS Software Demonstrations

During this three day course ASI will demonstrate how it created models for the demolition of the Charlotte Coliseum and predicted potential failure modes for multiple structures subjected to extreme loading conditions.

ELS Software

ELS Training for Engineers (ASI-ELS0801) must be completed to be eligible to license the ELS software.  Applied Element Method (AEM) Theory and Application (ASI-AEM0803) is designed specifically for those interested in the science behind the technology.

Who Should Attend
  • This course has been designed for Structural and Civil Engineers who desire/require a more technical understanding of the AEM technology powering ELS software as it applies to a research environment. 
What Makes AEM Theory And Application Unique
  • Applied Element Method (AEM) is a new technology.
  • The course is taught by engineers who are experienced and familiar with development and implementation of the technology.
  • ASI will present the results of research projects, actual demolitions, and material behavior verification samples and experiments
Benefits
  • Participants will understand the mechanics behind AEM technology and its applicability to Research and Development projects.
  • Those enrolled will have the opportunity to meet and work with the scientists and engineers behind the AEM technology implemented in ELS software. 
  • Individual participants will learn how AEM has been applied to practical projects and processes.
