10 Hidden FEMAP Features
FEMAP has a rich set of hidden features for finite element modeling, but not all of them are easy to find.  I’ve created a list of some of my favorite feature…

Femap Tips and Tricks: Automatic Global Ply Creation

In the analysis of composite structures, global plies are very useful in helping to postprocess as they present the results data by continuous ply rather than the whole laminate element by element, w…

What to do with that new graphics card in FEMAP?

Last month I talked about how to pick out a graphics card for a CAD/CAE program like FEMAP or NX Advanced Simulation.  This month, I want to give a few hints on how to make it work better with F…
