John Doyle runs the ExcelCalcs website but most of his time is spent as an engineering consultant working for MoreVision Limited. John specialises in finite element analysis and strain gauge testing applied to mechanical equipment. His analysis and testing services have been used for railway vehicles, construction equipment, oil and gas plant, cranes and mechanical items for theme parks. We live in an age when computers allow us to readily solve complex analyses without very much thought. It is John’s belief that using ‘black box’ solvers makes us lazy and that working from the fundamentals using classical calculations puts us in a position to devise the best solutions. The case studies below show how this belief is applied to real world problems. Many more examples can be found on the MoreVision Website.

Please contact John Doyle if you require our assistance on your own projects or would like to participate in one of our training courses.  You are also welcome to contribute case studies of your own (contact John Doyle).
