CAElinux 2007
  caelinux Computer Aided Engineering Linux distribution (CAElinux)
Just insert the CAELinux LiveDVD in your computer to turn it into a professionnal CAE workstation: no installation is required!
Based on the open-source CAE softwares Salomé & Code_Aster, you can load STEP / IGES geometry in Salomé and start partitionning and meshing your problem in just 5 minutes.


Then you can simulate incredibly complexe physics with the ISO 9001 certified FE solver Code_Aster: non-linear thermo-mechanics, coupled fluid-structure dynamics, sismic / non-linear explicit dynamics, contacts, visco-plasticity, in other words all that you could imagine can be simulated with Code_Aster!! Then reload your results files in Salomé to post-process your data in 3D... And don't forget all these features are based on open-source / free softwares, so now you don't have to pay for excessively expensive licenses.
