Hello,

RFEM is the general purpose FEA tool for engineers to tackle all structure types beyond basic buildings…think domes, façades, tanks, and cable structures.

Venture outside steel or concrete and into glass, cross-laminated timber (CLT), or fabric tensile form-finding. The newest program RWIND Simulation considers a CFD wind analysis for these unique structure types.

Plastic analysis with RFEM

The elastic deformations of a structural component due to a load are based on Hooke's law, which describes a linear stress-strain relation. They are reversible: After the relief, the component returns to its original shape. However, plastic deformations lead to irreversible deformations.
