I'm getting to grips with abaqus but falling foul of licencing issues, when my colleague is doing a solve on more than one cpu, I am stuck and cannot solve anything.
It seems pretty expensive to get more capability and those above are not keen to spend mega money on Abaqus. But they might spend more on something less expensive.
So I have looked at calculix, but unfortunately it does not have all the capability we need. Are there alternative solvers out there that are capable but cheaper than Abaqus? Like a version of nastran maybe? It appears CAE will export a nastran deck.
