Finite Element Analysis

Does Onshape team will someday implement FEA capacity for structural, flow analysis, etc? I know the first step is to be able to draw, then go further with modeling.. it could be interesting the share capacity of multiple computers to solve a specific mesh, but I guess this would generate lots of data flow.

Just some ideas,  Marc

    This is an old thread, but I hope you were not referring to the future app store with regards to this comment. I have sampled all of the structural analysis connected apps expect SIMSOLID so far and they are not easy to use nor intuitive. I have taught and used Creo Simulate to engineering technology students for the past few years and these apps feel like I've gone back in time to 1991 when I took an FEA class in college. The only reason I have not tried SIMSOLID yet it that I don't want to burn my 30 day free trial yet. It looks promising based on the webinar you hosted with Ken (I just watched it yesterday). Unless OS is still planning on integrating FEA natively, I will likely stick with Creo Simulate for the foreseeable future.
