Abstract in another language

Z88Aurora ist ein in Deutschland entwickeltes und für wissenschaftlichen und kommerziellen Gebrauch kostenlos erhältliches Finite-Elemente-Analyse-Programm. Zur Validierung der genannten FEA-Software werden die NAFEMS-Benchmarks eingesetzt. Hierbei werden alle Tests durchgeführt, die durch die von der Software Z88Aurora gebotenen Randbedingungsdefinitionen, Finite-Element-Typen und Berechnungsmodi möglich sind. Bei der Auswertung werden zusätzlich die Benchmark-Ergebnisse einer kommerziellen State of the Art Software zum Vergleich herangezogen. Sobald die Vorgaben der Benchmarks vollständig umgesetzt werden können, liefert die kostenlose Simulationssoftware sehr geringe Abweichungen zum analytischen Wert. Es zeigt sich, dass die freie Software Z88Aurora bei diesen Benchmark-Tests zur kommerziellen State of the Art Software ebenbürtig ist.

Abstract in another language

The finite element analysis application Z88Aurora was developed in Germany and is completely free for academic and commercial use. For validation of the mentioned free FEA software, the NAFEMS benchmarks are utilized. Here all tests – with regard to the offered possibilites for definition of boundary conditions, finite element types and computation modes – are performed. In addition, the benchmark results of a commercial state-of-the-art software are considered for comparison. As soon as the entire standards of the benchmark can be implemented, the free simulation software shows very low deviances to the analytical calculated values. It becomes apparent that the free software Z88Aurora and the commercial state-of-the-art software are on a par.
