Abstract

Finite Element Analysis (FEA) has become a cornerstone in engineering, enabling the simulation of complex physical phenomena. This research investigates the application of FEA to basic mechanical physics problems, focusing on tensile, compression, and shear tests across various materials. The study employs a comprehensive dataset from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and utilizes ANSYS Mechanical for simulations. By comparing the FEA results with experimental data, the research validates the accuracy and reliability of FEA in predicting mechanical behaviors. Key findings indicate high accuracy across all tested materials, with minimal mean absolute error (MAE) and root mean square error (RMSE) values, reinforcing the robustness of FEA. The results fill significant literature gaps, particularly in applying FEA to coupled phenomena and handling uncertainties. The implications are profound, enhancing material selection, design optimization, and safety in engineering practices. Additionally, the study provides valuable insights for future research in multi-physics simulations and advanced material modeling. The findings underscore the indispensability of FEA in modern engineering, offering a unified framework for addressing a wide range of engineering challenges.
