JANFEA Description

JANFEA - Finite element and material point method analysis software. The JANFEA application is finite element and material point method analysis software for the Macintosh. JANFEA was written by Prof. John A. Nairn from the Material Science and Engineering Department at the University of Utah. JANFEA is focused on two-dimensional and axisymmetric solid mechanics of linear elastic materials and a few nonlinear material options in the material point method. Within this focus, JANFEA is a very powerful package. It can do several element types, it can analyze any size problem, it has extensive fracture options, and has many ways to plot the results.Here are some key features of "JANFEA":· 2D and axisymmetric FEA analysis of linear elastic materials. All FEA calculations are static analyses. The FEA calculations support several element types. There is also a custom element for analysis of composite with imperfect interfaces. · 2D material point methods calculations. All MPM calculations are dynamic analyses. The section of JANFEA is new and will be expanding in the future. · Built in programming language for setting up the mesh. The language is scriptable for automated control of multiple FEA or MPM analysis. · A large number of plotting options: 2D, 3D surfaces, 3D contours, grid plots, movies of MPM results, and more. · JANFEA has very advanced methods for fracture mechanics.· XML formatting of data files for analysis by your own software. · Everything is documented in the on-line help. You can even print out the on-line help to get a 150 page manual.Limitations:· Registration screen at startup.· Limited to calculations with 200 nodes or less. What's New in This Release: · New method for archiving results of MPM calculations. · MPM calculations can include components of shear strain as separate calculations.
