What reviewers say
A Powerful Tool for Tackling Frictional and Nonlinear FEA Problems
5.0
“A very powerful tool to solve frictional and non linear FEA problems”
Accurate Nonlinear Results and a Logical Debugging Experience
4.5
“Abaqus provides accurate results for nonlinear problems, and the debugging process is very logical, which I like the most.”
Advanced solver for implicit/explicit analysis
4.5
“Compared to other FEA solvers, it’s easier to read the input file, and I like being able to use defined names instead of numbers (as in the Nastran family of solvers). Very helpful is the nearly full integration between explicit and implicit solvers.”
