APM Structure3D computational kernel for finite element analysis
APM Structure3D computational kernel for finite element analysis
STRUCTURE 3D
The APM Structure3D module is the basic calculation core of the APM line. It has ample opportunities for creating models of structures, performing the necessary calculations and visualizing the results. The use of these opportunities will reduce the design time and reduce the material consumption of the facility, as well as reduce the cost of design work.
The APM Structure3D module is designed for comprehensive analysis of 3D structures of arbitrary shape. It can be used by the finite element method to perform a strength calculation of arbitrarily fixed models, including rod, thin plate and volumetric solid structural elements (including assemblies), as well as ropes and arbitrary combinations of all the above elements. The initial elastic-deformation characteristics of the elements in this case can be linear, as well as geometrically and physically nonlinear.
Analysis of the obtained results and subsequent modification allows you to choose the best design solutions that are optimal in terms of weight and cost.

With APM Structure 3D you can:
- fully or partially prepare a geometric model of a metal structure, using libraries of the most common typical schemes, perform a load-bearing capacity check and automatically select the optimal cross-section of a bar element (according to strength and stability criteria, as well as in accordance with the requirements of SNiP II-23-81 *) from the library standard sections or from a library prepared by the user;
- automatically receive drawings of standard joints of metal structures;
