Description	Strand7 is a general-purpose finite element analysis system comprising pre-processing, post-processing and solver functionality. It provides a single, consistent environment for the creation and analysis of finite element models and the extraction of results. It is suited to aeronautical, civil, mechanical, naval architecture, structural and geotechnical engineering. Solver capabilities include: Linear and non-linear static (with automatic load stepping and re-start functions); Linear and non-linear transient dynamic (with re-start); Linear buckling; Natural frequency; Harmonic response; Spectral response; Linear and non-linear steady-state heat transfer; Linear and non-linear transient heat transfer (with re-start). The non-linear solvers support geometric, material (including plasticity and large strain) and boundary non-linearity (i.e. contact). This non-linearity can also be included as initial conditions in the natural frequency and buckling solvers. The pre-processing environment includes a set of tools for manipulating both the geometry and the elements directly. All element types can be fully rendered to aid in the visualization of the model. The post-processing environment allows extraction of the results: graphically on the screen, in spreadsheet format and in printed report form. The reporting and documentation provides previewing and printing functions for both graphical and text-based data. All aspects of the reports can be customized including company letterhead, logos and fonts.
