Nastran is a powerful general purpose finite element analysis solution
for small to complex assemblies. A proven and standard tool in the
field of structural analysis for over four decades, Nastran provides a
wide range of modeling and analysis capabilities, including linear
statics, displacement, strain, stress, vibration, heat transfer and
more. What?s more, Nastran can handle any material type from plastic
and metal to composites and hyperelastic materials.
Add new modules as you grow
Because Nastran is actually a family of tightly integrated analysis
modules, you can purchase exactly what you need. You can start with a
basic configuration that allows you to perform linear and buckling
analysis. Later, you can add additional Nastran modules for heat
transfer, dynamics, spot welding, aeroelasticity, and nonlinear
analysis. Modules such as Nastran Design Optimization and Topology
Optimization and DMAP (a toolkit for creating custom solutions that
work with proprietary applications) speed work by enabling you to
customize analysis routines.
Work within a completely integrated environment
Nastran is closely linked with the pre-processor prost-processor
Patran. A wide range of third-party CAD programs also offer direct
interfaces to Nastran, giving you a completely integrated modeling and
simulation environment to work within.
