Basic Versions

MEANS V12 LITE for 399 €
FEM-System with linear statics calculations with linear and quadratic 3D beams, 2D planes and plates, axialsym. 2D, 3D shells and 3D-solid elements (hexahedron, pentahedron, tetrahedron). Nodal loads, line loads, distributed loads, centrifugal loads, gravitation and temperature loads, FEM-Structures with different materials, 2D/3D mesh generation with a CAD-Interface DXF, STL, STEP and IGES. Quick FE-Solver until 300 000 nodes and 300 000 elements with all element typs.

MEANS V12 DESIGN for 1299 €
same functions as MEANS LITE but FEM calculations until 800 000 nodes and 800 000 elements.

MEANS V12 HIGH END for 2490 €
same functions as MEANS DESIGN but FEM calculations with unlimited nodes and elements. MPC-Elements for mixed structures and different meshes.


Add-Ons

Add-On module DYNAMIC for 350 €
Calculations of Eigenvalues, natural frequencies with characteristic modal forms.

Add-On module FORM OPTIMIZATION for 250 €
Material can be saved up to 70%.

Add-On module BUCKLING for 350 €
Calculate the critical buckling loads with the buckling modes shapes.
Fatique-Calculations with the German FKM-Richtlinie with Dialogboxes

Add-On module DXFFEM for 350 €
With DXFFEM it is possible to make FEM-Analysis of 2D-Planes or Plate Bending in AutoCAD or any other 2D-CAD only with DXF-Layers and Polylines (see website).

Add-On module TEMPERATURE for 350 €
Temperature analysis for steady and transient temperature field calculation with convection, point-, surface- and 3d heat sources.

Add-On module NONLINEAR, CONTACT and DROP_TEST for 700 €
Calculation of Rolling Contact Pressure (Hertz contact problems) of train and rail systems or ball and roller bearings or other contact problems like bolted or clamped parts sittings. Also included MPC elements to connect structures with different mesh sizes or to calculate with different material datas. Geometrically nonlinear and with load increments for large deformations. FEM-Calculations for plastic deformations with a Stress-Strain-Database.
Also it is possible to calculate simplified Drop Test with a impact factor and gravitation load. (see website)
