I understand your statement. I personally haven't used Abacus, but what the experts here have responded with matches what I have heard about the program. Enjoy David David L.

I am doign well with Ansys/Mechanical. I just weant to know the difference, the strong point and weak point of individual commercial FEA software. That is all.

Are you comparing them to see which one you want to pursue? Or? Every FEA program has its advantages and disadvantages. It all depends on what kind of analysis that you are going to conduct and how accurate do you want the results. I personally have had the opportunity to work on several different programs including Mechanica and Algor (because that is what that company used at that time). What I have discovered over the years is that I keep coming back to ANSYS for its versatility and accuracy. It isn't perfect, but it has definitely been sufficient for my work analyzing structures in fields ranging from underwater robotics to MEMs. David David L.
