Nastran for SolidWorks

WaveFEA is a SolidWorks integrated product to perform Finite Element Analysis using the Autodesk Nastran Solver.

  
WaveFEA is a Game Changer!
WaveFEA has allowed us to significantly reduce our time and cost for design validation. We are now able to quickly check, modify and re-check our designs within our CAD environment with the confidence that the results are based on the Nastran Solver.
