Bearing Capacity of Shallow Foundations
Dartis bearing capacity calculates bearing capacity of shallow foundations considering shear failure.
Slope Stability Analysis Using Traditional Limit Equilibrium Method
LEMSlope is a slope stability analysis program using traditional limit equilibrium method. It takes advantage of the strength of Python script language and sets up the analysis model parametrically.
Numerical Analysis of Structures Strength and Stability
LIRA-SAPR is comprehensive software package that benefits from BIM technology and intended for analysis and design of building and mechanical engineering structures of different purposes.
Cross-Section Elastic Buckling Analysis
CUFSM includes tools for generalized beam-column loading and analysis. CUFSM provides both the semi-analytical finite strip method for creation of the cross-section signature curve as well as the generalized finite strip method for other end boundary conditions.
Was a bit hesitant to try at first but CMS IntelliCAD turned out to be a good alternative for me. The free trial worked immediately, which was good to try it out before paying for it. All the features it offers are user-...
Absolutely love working with CMS IntelliCAD! I did some prior research and used the free trial option to get accustomed to the features before investing in it. Was nicely surprised to find that they're an American busine...
Hello, I would like to know if Groundwater Vistas works with optimization models....
I love simple small programs that do one job and do it well. FTOOL is easy to use and does what is supposed to do....
There are no instructions so examine one of the three examples in the Examples folder for what needs to happen. Program terminates without warning if you do anything that it does not like. Program works well once given d...
