FEARCE is a unique finite element environment which provides pre and post-processing tools and solvers dedicated to engine and vehicle applications. Developed to provide a complete interface between model generation and result presentation and other commercial packages FEARCE offers a variety of tools and features that automate key tasks and creates an environment design to ensure that finite element analysis is fast, efficient, reliable and repeatable.
Features
The FEARCE pre-processing features simplify the assembly, joining and loading of component models from separate sources through the means of a standard data format and a large palette of inbuilt tools. Solution data files are automatically generated for all of the major commercial solvers using FEARCE’s library of translators. FEARCE includes a number of post-processing functions and comes with an integrated software package FEVIEWER to allow results to be plotted and animated.
