What's this Forum About ?

[RWF7437]

It would help if you'd explain waht this forum is about. For example, what does UGS mean ? What does FeMap mean ? Do these terms have something to do with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)?

 

[Stringmaker]

FEMAP is an finite element pre and post processing program used with Nastrand that is distributed by Unigraphics.

 

[swertel]

UGS is the name of the company (software maker) that sells FEMAP, as stringmaker stated.

UGS was EDS was Unigraphics Solutions.

Like sombody already said, Femap is a Finite Element pre- and postprocessor that works with Nastran and other solvers. I think that the reason for this forum is due to a request in the Nastran forum (I think it was that forum) for a separate Femap forum.

So far not much activity but we'll just have to wait and see.

Regards

Thomas

i guess a snooty way to respond to the post from RWF7437 would be ...
if you have to ask then this forum's not for you !

seriously, i though this forum might discuss recent changes with FEMAP, vis a vis UGS's split with MSC ...

 

[ug42]

I WOULD LIKE TO SEE MORE DISCUSSION ABOUT THE NEW CHANGES WITH UG FROM NX-2 TO NX-3.

IS ANY ONE ELLS DISAPPOINTED ABOUT IT ?
