Femap Support a Specialty at NEi Software

Femap version 10, the newest release of Siemens PLM Software’s  CAD-independent Windows-native pre- and post- processor for advanced engineering finite element analysis, is now available from NEi Software (Westminster, CA). For nearly 20 years, NEi Software has sold Femap and provided users cost-effective, high-level support, training, and mentoring services. Additionally, Femap integrates tightly with NEi Software's NEi Nastran, a general-purpose FEA (finite element analysis) solver for analyzing analyze linear and nonlinear stress, dynamics, and heat transfer characteristics of structures and mechanical components.
