Desktop Engineering consultants are professionals qualified to study, explain and quantify complex structural behavior utilizing state-of-the-art analytical tools to deliver concise, accurate and cost conscious solutions. We have provided our services to both commercial and government projects and have obtained the necessary Government/Commercial security clearance, when required.

Our engineers utilize state-of-the-art computer aided analysis techniques to provide reliable analytical results and to achieve the best design possible.

Customizing software and developing analytical techniques designed to perform tasks more efficiently are typical of the Desktop Engineering approach. In addition to using proprietary software packages, we also have expertise with many commercial finite element applications. For all analyses, we select the application software best suited for specific project and client requirements. DEI has provided simplified and complex finite element solutions using both microcomputers and mainframes, as required. Desktop Engineering consultants have also demonstrated expertise with advanced analytical techniques such as superelement analysis, cyclic symmetry, component modal synthesis and fracture mechanics.

Our experience with materials and structures, both in analysis and testing, under static, dynamic and fracture condition, at room temperature, as well as extreme temperatures, together with the available facilities of the Carlton laboratory, provide the expertise needed to investigate almost any material of structure. Desktop Engineering has also developed extensive expertise in the analysis of composite materials.

Desktop Engineering consultants have also participated in many local and national seminars and conferences. Staff members have authored many papers on related subjects and have served on technical committees.
