Frame Design Alternatives
Frame Design is described as 'This intuitive and feature rich finite element app is especially useful for civil engineers, mechanical engineers, architects and students who wish to design 2D frames'. There are nine alternatives to Frame Design for Windows, Linux, Windows Mobile and Mac. The best alternative is FTOOL, which is free. Other great apps like Frame Design are Telaio2D (Free), LinPro (Free), Smart Frame 2D (Free Personal) and JBeam (Free, Open Source).
- FTOOL is a program that is aimed at teaching the structural behavior of plane frames, occupying an area little explored by educational programs, which are more concerned with the teaching of numerical analysis techniques, or educational versions of commercial programs, more...
- Implemented analyzes: linear static analysis, static analysis of the second order, buckling analysis, calculation of natural frequencies, a response spectrum analysis, nonlinear static analysis, pushover analysis, linear and nonlinear dynamic analysis.
- Easy and quick way to model and analyze planar frames, trusses, and multi span beams based on the finite element method.
