Description

Patran offers an extensive array of tools designed to facilitate the development of models ready for analysis across various domains, including linear and nonlinear problems, explicit dynamics, thermal analysis, and more within finite element solutions. Its geometry cleanup features assist engineers in efficiently addressing issues like gaps and slivers present in CAD designs, while solid modeling capabilities allow users to construct models from the ground up. The software simplifies the mesh generation process on both surfaces and solids through a combination of fully automated meshing routines and manual techniques that afford users greater precision. Additionally, Patran includes built-in options for setting up loads, boundary conditions, and analyses compatible with leading finite element solvers, significantly reducing the need for adjusting input files. With its robust and industry-validated functionalities, Patran ensures that virtual prototyping is not only swift but also effective, enabling users to assess product performance against specific requirements and refine their designs accordingly. As a result, engineers can spend less time on setup and more on innovation and optimization.

Description

The FEA program RFEM enables quick and easy modeling, structural, and dynamic calculation as well as the design and construction of models with member and plate, wall, folded plates, shell, shell, and other solid elements. Modular software allows you to connect the main program RFEM to the appropriate add-ons to meet your specific requirements. Structural analysis program RFEM offers structural engineers a 3D FEA tool that meets all modern civil engineering requirements. Simple and complex structures can be modelled with ease thanks to efficient data input and intuitive handling. The basis of a modular software program is the structural analysis program RFEM. The RFEM basic program is used to create structures, materials, loads, and plans for spatial and planar structural systems that include plates, walls, shells and members. You can also create mixed structures and model contact elements.
