ANALYSIS:
Use of highly flexible, general, finite element method
Static analysis of multi span beams, 2D trusses and 2D frames
Unlimited number of Nodes and Beams
3 Degrees of freedom per Node, 6 per Beam
All type of boundary conditions (fixed, rollers, etc.)
Translational and rotational spring supports
Initial displacement conditions
Rapid model creation, no need to first define nodes and then elements, nodes are produced automatically
Consideration of thermal loads
PRE-PROCESSING:
Top quality graphics rendering, full GUI
All major measure units are included. Immediate switch to other measure units during work is supported.
Very easy model creation
Embedded library with major steel section shapes
Definition of custom sections
Embedded library with major materials (wood, steel, concrete)
Definition of custom materials
Rapid modification of the material properties
End release options
Rapid application of distributed loads
Application of time dependent loads at each time step graphically
POST-PROCESSING:
Drawing of the deformed shape of the given model
Analytical view of the results of analysis
Drawing of axial-shear force diagrams and bending moment diagram
Internal forces calculation at each location along the members
Stress calculation at the top and bottom section fiber along each member
Graphic representation of every model parameter (internal forces, moments, displacements, rotations, reactions) vs. time
Drawing axial - shear force and bending moment diagrams at each time step
Drawing of deformed shape at each time step
High quality analysis reports with all analysis results, including stress, internal forces and displacements diagrams, as well as drawings of the static model, its deformed shape and the axial-shear forces and moment diagrams
Professional looking analysis reports
