MECHANICAL INVESTIGATIONS

Mechanical engineering is the application of physical principles to the creation of useful devices, objects and machines; generally, devices that physically move during operation, or move heat or fluids from one place to another. Mechanical engineers use principles such as heat, force, and the conservation of mass and energy to analyze static and dynamic physical systems and design such things such as automobiles, aircraft, other vehicles, heating and cooling systems, household appliances, industrial equipment and machinery, weapons systems, etc.

Applied Forensic Engineering’s (AFMechanical FailuresE) mechanical engineers are highly skilled in the investigation of mechanically related failures. From highly complex cases to simple evaluations requiring only a few hours and a brief report, you can trust AFE to provide only the highest quality analysis and reporting.

AFE’s engineers perform failure analyses by examining a suspect device to determine if, why, and how it failed.  When performed properly, these failure causes will point to the responsible parties who can be pursued to recover losses. After a potentially damaging event, a damage assessment can also be conducted on the entire system to determine which components are damaged and which are not, so that the actual scope of the loss can be established.

When AFE performs a product liability evaluation, the mechanical device is evaluated toMechanical Investigations determine if manufacturing or design defects are present, if it is unreasonably hazardous, and if it met the highest standards of safety when it was manufactured.

The full spectrum of any failed or damaged mechanical system must be analyzed. This includes the design, manufacture, installation, and evaluation of the method of use and operation by the owner. Only when all of these critical aspects are considered, can a factual basis be developed to explain the cause of the failure or accident.

Inspections and analyses are offered for all sizes of equipment including small household appliances.  We want to work with you to provide the most cost effective service possible.  It is often more cost effective to ship small items to our laboratory, however our engineers Mechanical Failurescan perform inspections on large items at the loss site.

Regardless of whether it’s a residential, vehicle, commercial or industrial loss, AFE will provide you with an unbiased and comprehensive report with illustrative pictures, supported by the definitive facts you need to enable you to evaluate and settle your case quickly and in a cost effective manner.
