Patran – Build and Assess FEA Models
Patran supports finite element model preparation and results assessment. Work with geometry, meshes, loads and boundary conditions in a shared environment.
Discuss Patran with usTechnical Product Overview
As a pre- and post-processor, Patran connects model preparation with different FEA solvers.
CAD geometry
Import, repair and simplify geometry before meshing.
Meshing
Create, edit, smooth and locally refine finite element meshes.
Analysis models
Define materials, loads and boundary conditions.
Solver interfaces
Prepare models for solvers including MSC Nastran and Marc.
Results assessment
Visualise analysis results and prepare reports.
Automation
Customise and automate repetitive tasks with Patran Command Language (PCL).
Where is Patran used?
Model preparation
Work with CAD geometry and existing finite element models.
Analysis setup
Prepare structural and thermal analyses for the chosen solver.
Model variants
Organise meshes, loads and result displays for recurring analysis tasks.
We discuss CAD interfaces, solver connections and results workflows that fit your existing engineering environment.
