"Femap's native Windows user interface improves usability and productivity".
"This release also offers enhanced in-depth finite element modelling functionality that allows access to advanced analysis solutions".
New functionality addresses in-depth finite element modelling needs in the mid-market including: a fully associative Solid Edge interface that provides effective geometry transfer in preparation for analysis; a new direct Catia V5 translator strengthens geometry transfer and CAD integration capabilities; a fully integrated Basic development environment provides direct access to the OLE/COM API; users can record, edit and play back, automating repetitive tasks; strengthened NX Nastran software integration with a new linear surface-to-surface contact capability; improved mesh quality around critical boundaries and stress raisers with a new quadrilateral element meshing option; and support for NX Nastran spot weld elements to aid modelling of sheet metal component fasteners.
