Linux?

Thomas Jenkins — Thu, 14 Apr 2011 11:18:30 -0400

I was interested in this software: http://www.freebyte.com/cad/

But it only works on Windows and I am running Linux. Can anyone recommend a similar option for Linux?

Thanks,

hello

thanks,

Thanks for this.. I'm also looking for free pre and post processor software for finite element analysis and linked to the websites given above.. It helped a lot, thanks!

Hey You can use

Hey

You can use CASTEM for pre processing. It is a free downloadable software. You can download it from the link: http://www-cast3m.cea.fr/cast3m/index.jsp. It is absolutely free downloadable.

But let me tell you it is software in french language and developed by French Atomic Energy. You can get help in English too using a command opti lang anglias. This I found easy for meshing thing. A better Documentation is available too........ And it is based Object Oriented Language called Gibiane. If interested have a try.......

Inspiration and genius--one and the same.

mobini.mh — Sun, 07 Feb 2010 05:25:18 -0500

Hi dear friend,

I'm a beginner in ansys,and in my thesis I have to simulate a concrete frame,so I want to know do you have any ansys example which could help me?

thanks a lot

I want to modeling stone with ANSYS

mkaya — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 13:46:55 -0400

Dear friends;I m modeling a historical arch bridge with ANSYS. I modeled stones with SOLID65. Is it true. Could you give meknowledge about this subject,I will be happy. See you later.

Mesh for Polycrystaline material in ABAQUS

alankar — Mon, 19 Jan 2009 15:51:52 -0500

Hi,

I would like to know how to generate a mesh using Voronoi algorithm for a polycrystaline material. The mesh should represents different grains with random orientations.

Best regards,

RE: pre/post-processing software for boundary element

Alejandro A. Ortiz — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 02:26:06 -0400

Generally speaking, a pre/post-processing software should have a template file which can be customized (typically, using a script language) so you tell the software what you want to be printed out in a data file, say for example, node connectivities, material properties, load and constraint data, and in general, all the information that is required by your executable or console program. The next step is to set up the pre-processing information using the pre/post-processing program. For this, you create the geometry, create the mesh, define material, apply loads and constraints, etc. Once this stage is done, you should be able to create the data file directly from the pre/post-processing software according to what you defined in the template file. At this stage, your executable or console program should read that data file to start the calculations. Your executable should also give you an output file containing relevant results to do the post-processing. Typically, the output file will contain, for example, nodal displacement and/or stresses at gauss points. This output file must be readable by the pre/post-processing software so you can visualize your results. At least, that is what GiD does. The following link might be useful for you:

http://gid.cimne.upc.es/support_team/su05.html

and look at "ProblemType tutorial".

hi everybody,

Can anyone explain me how to use a pre/post-processing softoware.

for exemple if i have a FEm Consol Program and i want to see the response of a structure to thermal or mechanical sollicitations.

thank you for answering

I have been using LUSAS for

aliural — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 15:25:14 -0400

I have been using LUSAS for 2 years. It is very easy to learn and use. It has also included main nonlinear material models as Drucker-Prager, Mohr-Coulomb, Tresca, Cracking Concrete etc. I have no idea about ABAQUES.

This webside is much useful,thank you very much

Jun Yu — Mon, 29 Oct 2007 10:47:09 -0400

I just link to the webside and find some useful things to my work ,I am very happy

free pre-post processor

Karma Yonten — Mon, 05 Mar 2007 10:14:11 -0500

Does anyone know of a good free pre and post processor software for finite element analysis? I'm currently using the academic version of GiD. It's not convenient to create a more complex mesh with GiD, and doesn't give a good integration point stress/strain contours.
