Static Beams
Structural
Input segmented section properties and nodal boundary conditions and loads and visualize deflections and key bending parameters.
Beam Modes
Structural
Input segmented section properties and nodal boundary conditions and visualize mode shapes and natural frequencies.
Beam Optimization
Structural
Given the number of beam segments, nodal boundary conditions and loads an optimum set of beam segments can be determined given section property range and stress criteria.
Axial Buckling
Structural
Estimate critical load quickly; compare end conditions and geometry assumptions. Nonlinear and classic Euler loads can be determined.
Truss Structure
Structural
Estimate truss response to static loads. Normal modes can also be calculated.
Frame Structure
Structural
Estimate frame response to static loads. Normal modes can also be calculated.
Bolts
Structural
Estimate bolt preload given torque and friction conditions.
Shock Response
Dynamics
Define pulse input and damping; review time history and peak response quickly.
Base Shake Response
Dynamics
Estimate the response to a random vibration base shake input.
Air-Cooled Heat Sinks
Thermal
