NASTRAN is a registered trademark of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Femap with NX Nastran provides all of the capabilities that you will need in many instances, including linear statics, normal modes, buckling, steady-state and transient heat transfer, basic nonlinear, design sensitivity and optimization, and unlimited problem size capabilities. NASTRAN is the NASA Structural Analysis System, a finite element analysis program (FEA) completed in the early 1970's. It was the first of its kind and opened the door to computer-aided engineering. Subsections of a design can be modeled and then larger groupings of these elements can again be modeled. Nastran is a powerful finite element analysis program that is used widely in the aerospace and automotive industries Industry standard finite element code originally developed for NASA by MSC (1960s) Today there are many flavors (or versions) of Nastran MSC, NX, etc.

Welcome

Thank you for visiting the FEMCI Website, home to useful, obscure and even occasionally frivolous knowledge on finite element analysis and modeling. We hope you enjoy your visit.

The FEMCI website is an online archive of mostly Nastran-based finite element analysis information. Some information can be applied to other finite element analysis programs, such as the principles behind the validity checks, but in general, FEMCI is exclusively Nastran.

FEMCI is no longer an active group and does not hold regular meetings or workshops. Please ignore any references as such on any of the site's pages. We do, however, from time to time update or add information to the site to maintain its usefulness as a finite element analysis resource.
