2D Beam Analysis Software Recommendations
2D Beam Analysis Software Recommendations
(OP)
Can anyone recommend a simple 2D beam analysis program, similar to Orand System's "Beam 2D"? Orand seems to have gone out of business. Most of the composite beam analysis we do at Fiberforge does not require full FEA.
Basic requirements:
* User can define beam cross section, constraints, loads
* Plots Shear, Moment, and Deflection diagrams
* Text output of analysis results
* Database of materials with ability to define new material (such as advanced composites)
Thank you for your recommendations,
Dusty

I've used it for years and it's great.
