GenFEA's goal is to make advanced structural analysis and design software accessible, user-friendly and up-to-date with the cutting edge technologies of our time. GenFEA does this by leveraging the latest artificial intelligence, providing an intuitive user experience and ensuring affordability. -

ProSteel
Bentley
$4,193 per yearProSteel software allows you to quickly create 3D models of structural steel, metal work and steel assemblies. The software can quickly generate design drawings, fabrication details and schedules, which automatically update when the 3D model changes. The steel fabrication process can be automated by sending detailed output to CNC machines. ProSteel supports all your planning and construction tasks for structural steel and metal work within a 3D modeling environment. You can use AutoCAD or MicroStation to create complex structures, shop drawings, assemble all your connections and manage your materials bills. Quickly extract 2D drawings and they will automatically update as the 3D model changes. Interoperability with third-party and Bentley applications allows you to exchange information quickly with other disciplines. -

VABS
AnalySwift
VABS is a cross-sectional analysis tool that can be used for general purposes. It can quickly and easily compute beam properties and recover 3D fields from composite beams. It is the only tool that can decouple a 3D slender, with complex microstructure, into an engineering beam model. AnalySwift is a product of the aerospace industry. It has been used to create composite beams (helicopter blades, propellers and high aspect ratio wings), plates/shells and 3D structures. VABS has been used for many years in the wind turbine industry. It produces rapid and accurate results when modeling blades. SwiftComp also offers plates/shells and 3D structures made from composites. The automotive industry is increasingly using composites. This opens up more opportunities to use SwiftComp and VABS for modeling a wide range of structures including beams, plates, shells, and so on. -
