CONVERGENCE
ENGINEERING CORPORATION
was founded in 1990 by two senior aerospace
engineers to provide mechanical engineering design and analysis capability
to small and medium sized firms. The company is built around a synergistic
core of capability in stress analysis, structural dynamics, vibration,
systems dynamics, heat transfer, and materials science. This highly skilled
interdisciplinary team can be focused to solve engineering problems quickly
and efficiently. We have our own computer hardware and software capability
including sophisticated finite element static and dynamic analysis codes.
Recent
examples of major Convergence design efforts include:
1)
Thermo-structural design and analysis of next generation booster liquid
rocket engines for the Space Launch Initiative
2) Structural/thermal design
of NHRA and NASCAR engine pistons and wrist pins
3) Structural design of NHRA Top Fuel car
frames
4) Hydraulic design of NHRA Top
Fuel car fuel supply systems
5) Rotordynamic design analysis
of large industrial centrifugal separators
6) Earthquake survivability design
and analysis of network backup battery stands
7) Structural/thermal design analysis
of Air Force test rocket chambers, including new graphite materials
8) Structural dynamics and component design
