easy, tiny, fast, low-cost, high-spec. design engineer's FE solver for Windows


WHO USES FEMDESIGNER?

FEMdesigner was introduced in 1995 and has been advertised monthly in the "Professional Engineering" magazine ever since. It is used by a wide cross-section of individuals and institutions all over the world. Students use it because it is easy, quick and works well on their (often old) computers. Colleges and Universities use it because it is ideal for teaching and the small space requirement doesn't clog up the network. Engineering contractors and consultancies use it because it is inexpensive, flexible and quick. Small manufacturing companies use it because it doesn't represent a big investment. Large companies often use it either because they do not like (or cannot easily use) the FE software which has already been bought by their management, or they want the convenience of using FE at the design stage rather than referring to their specialist stress analysis departments.
