THIS PAGE CONTAINS INFORMATION SPECIFIC TO ABAQUS. FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION CHECK OUR  GENERAL FEA SOFTWARE SUITES PAGE.

Overview

ABAQUS Finite Element Software was developed by David Hibbitt,Dr. Bengt Karlsson and Paul Sorensen in 1978. ABAQUS finds application across a wide range of industries ranging from nuclear, offshore, automobile, aerospace, bio-medical and consumer industries. ABAQUS software is available in 3 packages:
  • ABAQUS/Standard
  • ABAQUS/Explicit
  • ABAQUS/CAE

ABAQUS/Standard

ABAQUS/Standard provides technology to solve traditional implicit finite element analyses, such as static, dynamics, thermal, all powered with the widest range of contact and nonlinear material options. ABAQUS/Standard also has optional add-on and interface products which address design sensitivity analysis, offshore engineering, and integration with third party software, e.g., plastic injection molding analysis.

ABAQUS/Explicit

ABAQUS/Explicit introduced in 1991, provides solutions to solve transient dynamics and quasi-static analyses using an explicit approach appropriate in many applications such as drop test, crushing and many manufacturing processes.

ABAQUS/CAE

ABAQUS/CAE provides a tool for interactive building of finite element models that interfaces with popular CAD packages and results visualization, was released in 1999. With direct access to CAD models, advanced meshing and visualization, and with an exclusive view towards ABAQUS analysis products, ABAQUS/CAE is the modeling environment of choice for many ABAQUS users.
