FEA sofware's market distributiondistribution

FEA sofware's market distributiondistribution

(OP)
Does anyone has an idea of the distribution of the different sofwares in the FEA market??What part does each compagny holds??

Let's say for general purpose mid-level sofware, like algor, ansys, mscnastran, NeNastran, cosmos an any other that would fit in that category.

I know the numbers will vary depending of the location, so let's concentrate on either World situation or North America's situation

thanks

Tom,

That is a very thoughtful response!  I was just about to say that question can not be answered because ABAQUS Inc. is privately held, but I like your approach.

Very inventive!
