Description
With STAAD, you are empowered to design, assess, and document structural projects globally, utilizing any material you choose. This software provides a versatile solution tailored to meet all your structural engineering requirements from the ground up. STAAD serves as an all-encompassing application for structural finite element analysis and design, enabling users to conduct evaluations on any structure subjected to various loads including static, dynamic, wind, seismic, thermal, and moving forces. Available in multiple variations, STAAD allows you to select the version that best suits your specific needs. Renowned for its analytical capabilities, extensive applications, interoperability, and efficiency, STAAD is a favored choice among structural engineers. It facilitates 3D structural analysis and design for both steel and concrete frameworks. Furthermore, a physical model created within the software can easily be converted into an analytical model for in-depth structural analysis. STAAD incorporates numerous design code standards, ensuring compliance and accuracy in engineering practices. In addition, its user-friendly interface enhances productivity, making complex design processes simpler and more efficient.
Description
Simcenter Simsolid is a structural simulation solution from Siemens built to speed up analysis by eliminating geometry cleanup and meshing. It allows engineers and designers to work directly with fully featured CAD assemblies, helping them validate designs earlier in the development process. The software is designed for complex parts and large assemblies, including models that may include gaps, overlaps, or rough contact surfaces. By delivering results in seconds to minutes on a standard PC, Simcenter Simsolid makes it easier to evaluate multiple design scenarios quickly. It supports many analysis methods, including linear statics, nonlinear statics, thermal studies, modal analysis, fatigue, thermal stress, buckling, composites, and random response. The platform also includes an extensive library of contacts, bolts, welds, rivets, adhesives, joints, bushings, and material types. Engineers can apply a wide variety of boundary conditions such as forces, pressure, gravity, thermal loads, inertia relief, hydrostatic loads, and remote loads. Simcenter Simsolid works with major CAD and PLM formats, including CATIA, NX, Creo, Inventor, Fusion 360, SOLIDWORKS, JT, STEP, Parasolid, and more. Its visualization tools help users review stress, strain, displacement, safety factors, mode shapes, modal frequencies, and other key structural results.
