Basic FEA Test

Answer True OR False to the following :

1. The finer the FE mesh on a model, the better the results.

2. A finer mesh gives better accuracy.

3. Geometry should be represented with as much detail as possible.

4. Solids give the best results because they accurately model the geometry.

5. Better (more-expensive) FEA software gives better results than less-expensive packages.

6. Automeshing is better than manual meshing.

7. An automatic-mesh generator reduces meshing to a pushbutton operation.

8. The high accuracy of FEA results comes from the high processing accuracy of the computer.

9. When your FEA software reports no error, the solution will be correct.

10. You do not really need an error estimation. FEA is always accurate enough.
