NEiWorks has the familiar SolidWorks look and feel for all menus and functions. It updates meshes after geometry changes are made. Other simulation capabilities include linear steady-state heat transfer, material orientation for composites, nonlinear elastic and plastic-material models with support for custom stressstrain data, and loading options such as moment, enforced displacement, and heat flux. Custom coordinate systems are available for defining constraints and different loads.
