Another very complex program that uses the finite element method is Salome Meca (Code Aster).The Code Aster program has been developed by EDF since 1989.It is quite a little popular software (OPEN SOURCE type) but worth attention. In this post, I will explain the specifics of this type of solution a little more.

Benefits that come from using this type of software?
This program is one of the two main EDF codes next to CODE SATURNE (this is an application for simulating CFD flows). The SALOME MECA program has the ability to perform both dynamic and static analyzes. Also included in this package are the functions for performing modal analyzes. As additional elements for structural analyzes, it is possible to define acoustic and thermal phenomena.
For the constructor and engineer for the strength cases, the ability to perform fatigue analysis will be an indispensable element.
In the software offer, you can read that Salome Meca has the possibility of coupled multi-physics analyzes such as: soil structure analysis, drying and hydratation, metallurgy analysis, fluid - structure interactions.
The program also offers the possibility of defining materials from a very rich library contained in Salome (95 constitute-laws). From the Meshing side, 395 types of finite elements can be found in the program.
Below you will find links to Code Aster websites and Salome Meca's offer documentation.

In the next posts I will try to introduce similar open source software. It will be possible to evaluate further applications dedicated to CFD calculations for the Salome Meca app.
P.S
It is worth noting that the SALOME MECA and CODE SATURNE software is included in the CAELINUX operating system, which is described in the entry below.
