AFGROW Training

AFGROW Training classes are offered in the Dayton, OH area each year (usually in the Spring and Fall). Training notices are posted and announced to AFGROW Users a few months in advance. The standard 3-day class syllabus is available to provide information on the topics covered in class.

The 3-day class will familiarize students with the design and operation of the AFGROW crack growth life analysis program. This includes a practical review of Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM) concepts, example problems, and the following new AFGROW capabilities: an advanced solution for continuing damage (corner & through crack at a notch), compression and tension spectrum filtering, independent compression and tension K-solution filtering. The class will also provide an introduction to the use of advanced features unique to AFGROW (COM automation, Advanced Multiple Crack Solutions, and Plug-In K-Solutions). We are also including a section on tips and tricks to help users model some practical complex geometries (i.e.: continuing damage scenarios). A certificate of completion will be issued to participants upon completion of the training.

We are offering a 3-day AFGROW training class in the Dayton area on May 8-10 2012. Class announcement, syllabus and class registration form are available.

Cost: $605.00/person until April 1, $645.00/person thereafter (continental breakfast and refreshments are provided)
