Explicit FEM Solvers

The focus of our simulations is in simulating dynamic load events with the explicit finite-element method. We work with various commercial solvers, to which we couple our own material model MF GenYld + CrachFEM.

Occasionally, we use the implicit FE method for special applications.

We characterize a wide range of materials for MF GenYld + CrachFEM, but we can also characterize the properties for some of these solvers’ own (standard) material models.
