Femap is a CAD-independent pre- and post-processor from Siemens PLM Software for engineering analysis by the finite element method (FEM) (Finite Element Analysis - FEA). This means that Femap is the link between the user and the solver - the core that performs calculations in engineering analysis problems. Femap, integrated with the NX Nastran solver, is a Microsoft Windows-based, part of the Velocity Series product line, and is an independent full-featured environment for modeling, simulating, and evaluating product analysis results.

The Femap system based on the NX Nastran solver allows you to: analyze the dynamics and strength of structures, machines and structures, obtain a solution to non-stationary nonlinear spatial problems, problems of the mechanics of composites and composite structures, structural and technological mechanics, analyze heat transfer, obtain a solution to problems of fluid and gas mechanics related multidisciplinary tasks.


Femap base modules with NX Nastran allow you to perform basic types of engineering analysis, such as linear static analysis, analysis of frequencies and forms of free vibrations, analysis of buckling of structures, analysis of stationary and non-stationary heat transfer problems, basic nonlinear analysis capabilities. Basic nonlinear analysis includes taking into account such nonlinearities as geometric (large deformations, displacements, follower loads) and physical (taking into account nonlinear materials - plasticity, creep, viscoelasticity), taking into account contact interaction at small displacements - "linear" contact, taking into account contact with the condition of continuity . The Advanced Nonlinear module is used in the analysis of large nonlinearities (including deformation of [Elastomer|elastomers], accounting for spatial contact interaction), combination of various types of nonlinearities, as well as in modeling and calculating fast nonlinear dynamic processes based on an explicit integration scheme. Femap includes three additional modules: Femap Flow Solver - allows you to analyze fluid and gas dynamics; Femap Advanced Thermal Solver - Provides a suite of capabilities for heat and mass transfer analysis, including fluid channel modeling, coupled convection, and fluid flow analysis; Femap Thermal Solver is a solution for temperature analysis and heat transfer analysis. Femap is used by engineering professionals to model complex structures, systems and processes such as satellites, aircraft, military electronics, heavy construction equipment, cranes, marine transportation and process equipment.
