Not sure if this meets the bill, but I can't resist the opportunity to plug open-source scientific software -- there is a free finite-element package available from the US government's standards lab, NIST. It's called Object-Oriented Finite-elements, or OOF. It's primarily intended to model the behavior of systems with fairly complex geometries, for a materials-science audience, but it's a pretty general FE system. So far only 2D, and only rudimentary nonlinear analysis, but perhaps worth a look for you. <http://www.ctcms.nist.gov/oof> Disclaimer: I am one of the principal developers of this software, and that web server has been the topic of posts on this very list. -- A. -- Andrew Reid / [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
