Nastran
Sign in to saveNASTRAN is a finite element analysis (FEA) program that was originally developed for NASA in the late 1960s under United States government funding for the aerospace industry. The MacNeal-Schwendler Corporation (MSC) was one of the principal and original developers of the publicly available NASTRAN code. NASTRAN source code is integrated in a number of different software packages, which are distributed by a range of companies.

Source code
NASTRAN has been released under the NASA Open Source Agreement version 1.3. NASTRAN is the NASA Structural Analysis System, a finite element analysis program (FEA) completed in the early 1970's. It was the first of its kind and opened the door to computer-aided engineering. Subsections of a design can be modeled and then larger groupings of these elements can again be modeled. NASTRAN can handle elastic stability analysis, complex eigenvalues for vibration and dynamic stability analysis, dynamic response for transient and steady state loads, and random excitation, and static response to concentrated and distributed loads, thermal expansion, and enforced deformations.

NASTRAN es un programa de cálculo estructural que aplica el método de los elementos finitos (MEF). Fue desarrollado inicialmente por la NASA a finales de los 60 con fondos del gobierno de los EE. UU. para la industria aeroespacial. The MacNeal-Schwendler Corporation, , fue una de las principales desarrolladoras del código del NASTRAN, que en un principio era un código abierto de dominio público. Nastran está escrito en Fortran y su código consta de más de un millón de líneas. Nastran estuvo ampliamente extendido en la industria aeroespacial hasta principios del siglo XXI.
