DYSSOLVE

Dynamic System Solver – DYSSOLVE (pronounced as “dissolve”) is an open-source software to solve structural dynamics problems. It is written in platform-independent, widely used Matlab programming language. A compiled version is available which does not require Matlab license. DYSSOLVE is designed to fill the need for a lightweight, classroom instruction and learning tool. Various problems [...]

ruBeam

ruBeam is a very simple to handle 2D structural analysis tool which is provided under the open source conditions. What ruBeam does and can be used for: generating a 2D structure model uses exact solutions for the differential equation of an element analysing a structure showing deformation and reaction force results used in bash mode; [...]

FERMA

Ferma is a free educational CAD software for truss units analysis. It is grounded on the construction conception and designed for finite element calculation and optimization of 2D truss structural units. Learn more at software web site. Related:

Frame3DD

Frame3DD is free open-source software for static and dynamic structural analysis of 2D and 3D frames and trusses with elastic and geometric stiffness. It computes the static deflections, reactions, internal element forces, natural frequencies, mode shapes and modal participation factors of two- and three- dimensional elastic structures using direct stiffness and mass assembly. Frame3DD has [...]
