Abaqus software is well established at the university undergraduate, graduate and research level at more than 1000 sites worldwide.
Abaqus Teaching Edition and Research Edition packages provide students and university research personnel with FEA software for classroom and research projects.
Abaqus Student Edition is economically priced so that engineering students can use it to supplement their classroom and research work.
"Abaqus Student Edition has significantly improved the effectiveness of my FEA course", said Bill Klug, Assistant Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at UCLA.
"Because my students have Abaqus on their home computers, I can offer them many more opportunities to deepen their understanding of analysis".
"Using the Teaching Edition and Student Edition together has been a cost-effective way to train undergraduate students in basic-to-intermediate FEA concepts".
"We have been delighted by the response to Abaqus Student Edition", commented Ken Short, Vice President of Marketing at Abaqus.
"Professors are already developing creative ways to extend its use in the classroom".
"They see the potential to provide students with experience in basic FEA applications using Abaqus Student Edition and Teaching Edition and to later build on these skills with Abaqus Research Edition".
All three editions of the software share a compatible file structure and common user-friendly interface.
Together they are able to solve a wide range of problems, from linear static analysis to nonlinear dynamic applications.
Abaqus Student Edition is the ideal personal finite element analysis tool.
Problems of limited size that do not require user subroutines can be solved with Abaqus/Standard, Abaqus/Explicit and Abaqus/CAE in the Student Edition software.
Available for both Windows XP and Windows 2000 Platforms, Abaqus Student Edition includes complete online documentation for software use.
