Femap

Best-in-class digital simulation for advanced engineering analysis.

Siemens PLM Software's Femap system facilitates an advanced engineering analysis environment. CAD-neutral and solver-neutral technology and cost-effective functionality have enabled Femap to become the world's most popular engineering analysis environment for Nastran users. It is widely used by the world's leading engineering organizations and consultants to model complex products, systems and processes.

01

FEA Performance with Ease-of-Use

Femap is recognized as the world's leading CAD-independent Windows-native pre- and post-processor for advanced engineering finite element analysis (FEA). It provides engineers and analysts with an FEA modeling solution to handle even the most complex tasks easily, accurately and affordably.

02

Scalable Solutions

Femap is available standalone, inside Solid Edge software and bundled with NX Nastran with add-on modules that form a series of powerful, robust and affordable solutions suitable for companies that have a diverse set of analysis requirements.

03

CAD Independent

Femap delivers a depth of functionality normally only found in more expensive applications. With powerful tools easing all aspects of the creation, manipulation and review of an engineering analysis model, Femap is the natural choice for a complete CAD-independent analysis environment.

04

Solver Independent

Femap provides in-depth, high-quality support for industry standard solvers, including NX Nastran, MSC/MD Nastran, Abaqus, Ansys, MSC.Marc, LS-DYNA, SINDA and TMG. Femap provides the ability to re-use and integrate analysis models from legacy data.

05

Femap Thermal

Includes both the transient and steady-state thermal analysis capabilities required to solve a majority of common engineering problems. Capabilities include modeling of conduction, convection, radiation and phase change.

06

Femap Flow

Provides a comprehensive 3D computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solution fully integrated within Femap. Both low-speed and high-speed compressible flows can be modeled using efficient element-based finite volume, multi-grid solver.

01

Power with simplicity

Windows-native workflows simplify access to advanced FEA modeling functionality.

02

Scalable analysis

Standalone, Solid Edge and NX Nastran bundles support different analysis requirements.

03

Multi-solver value

Femap integrates many analysis technologies in one modeling and visualization environment.

04

Multiphysics depth

Thermal, advanced thermal and flow capabilities support heat transfer and CFD problems.

Business benefits from simulation

The old Preside Femap page emphasized simulation as a way to reduce cost, increase quality and get innovative products to market faster. Femap supports that by giving engineers control over advanced beam modeling, midsurface extraction, hex meshing, CAD import, idealization, loads, materials, analysis types and visualization.

Femap with NX Nastran combines a Windows-native pre/post processor with a powerful solver, while Femap's openness makes it useful as a core analysis tool even in multi-solver environments.

Faster time to market
Lower cost through less physical prototyping
Fewer engineering change orders
Better in-service warranty outcomes
Increased product quality
