About Femap

Femap^® by Siemens PLM Software is a professional level pre- and postprocessor used for preparing models and viewing the results of engineering analyses for structural, heat transfer, and fluid flow problems. Femap can import geometry from all major CAD systems and can use a wide variety of solvers including finite element analysis (FEA) and computation fluid dynamics (CFD). Femap runs on Microsoft Windows.

Who Uses Femap?

Femap is for product design and development professionals who need to do more effective analysis and have moved beyond the capabilities found in typical in-CAD simulation software or more limited FEA products. They need a CAE tool that provides them with more functionality, more control over the analysis process, and provides more accurate results. They have moved from simple parts to assemblies and more complex systems. They have moved from being primarily involved in CAD design with occasional need for validation to more involvement with engineering and analysis. They have climbed the FEA learning curve and are ready for the next level of analysis.

Femap with NEi Nastran

Integrating tightly with NEi Nastran, this combination provides significant additional functionality for Nastran users. This includes advanced capabilities for composites engineering and analysis with tools for advanced failure criteria for first ply failure like Puck and LaRC02 and Progressive Ply Failure Analysis (PPFA™) for simulation of behavior beyond first ply failure. Automated Impact Analysis (AIA™) provides sophisticated simulation for drop tests and implicit impact studies. Productivity tools like Automated Surface Contact Generation (ASCG™) and Automated Edge Contact Generation (AECG™) help in industries with models having large shell like structures as found in ship building and automotive. See the Key Features of NEi Nastran for a full itemization of distinctive features.

Solver Choices – Structural, Modal, Thermal, Fluid Dynamics, and More

Femap is compatible with a full complement of highly regarded implicit and explicit FEA and CFD solvers including NEi, NX, and MSC Nastran; LS Dyna; Maya TMG-Flow and TMG-Thermal; Abaqus; and ANSYS. The ability to work with such a variety and scope of professional FEA and CFD solvers is a major advantage of Femap. This solver independent capability assures engineers that with Femap, they will be able to model and generate results for linear and nonlinear structural stress, deformation, modal analysis, thermal, heat transfer, impact, crash, fluid flow, multiphysics, aero elasticity, optimization, rotor dynamics and other engineering problems.
