The Abaqus Unified FEA product suite includes the following models to help engineers consolidate their tools and processes in one environment.

ABAQUS/CAE

ABAQUS/STANDARD

ABAQUS/EXPLICIT
ABAQUS/CAE
Complete Abaqus Environment
Abaqus/CAE offers a complete solution for pre- and post-processor needs, equipped with tools for the modelling and analysis of mechanical components and assemblies, and visualising the finite element analysis result.
Abaqus/CAE allows designers to maximise the full range of Abaqus functionality, such as sketch, edit, monitor, diagnose and visualise the analysis. Understanding Abaqus concepts such as parts, materials, assembly and interaction make the analysis process highly insightful.
-
User friendly interface
The powerful, easy to use interface offers easy ways to set up simulations, apply multi step approaches and interpret results. -
Import & create 2D and 3D geometry
The software can read geometry in many common 3D files, or allows engineers to set up geometry from scratch to perform simulations on. -
Repair and simplify geometry
With the help of virtual topology tools, users can simplify geometry and repair imperfections. -
Advanced meshing tools
Users can apply structured meshing, surface meshing, solid meshing, sweep meshing and bottom-up meshing with automatic & manual adaptive remeshing tools.

ABAQUS/STANDARD
General purpose Finite Element Analyser
Abaqus/Standard is the implicit solver for non-linear/static and low-speed dynamics applications. The software utilises solution technology best for events where highly accurate stress solutions are required. In just one single simulation, Abaqus/Standard can analyse a model both in time and frequency domains.
Abaqus/Standard and Abaqus/Explicit can be used in tandem, where the results obtained in Standard can be used as the starting point for extension in Explicit. Similarly, an analysis started within Explicit can be continued in Standard.
-
General, linear and non-linear analyses
Perform simulations such as static and dynamic stress/displacement, low cycle fatigue, creep, acoustics, heat transfer and multi-physics. -
Special purpose elements
The software includes many types of elements for specific analyses such as beams, membranes, sheslls, elbows, gaskets and pipes. -
Perform co-simulations
Multiple co-simulations can be performed in the same analysis to combine behaviours. -
Define material specifications
Many elastic and inelastic mechanical material properties such as failure and damage can be applied.

ABAQUS/EXPLICIT
Special purpose Finite Element analyser
Abaqus/Explicit is the FEA solver for high-speed dynamics applications such as drop testing and ballistic impacts. The software utilises explicit integration schemes to provide solutions for high-speed dynamic events with many sophisticated behaviours.
Reliable and easy to use, Abaqus/Explicit is a valuable tool for those looking to simulate quasi-static events such as the slow crushing of energy absorbing devices or steel beam intrusions.
-
Multiphysics technologies
Perform multiphysics simulations with multiple technologies including CEL, SPH & DEM. -
Perform dynamic analysis
Designed specifically for high-speed dynamic events whilst also being suitable for highly nonlinear quasi-static events. -
Scalable calculation speed
Utilises available CPU and CPCPU cores to speed up simulations. -
Switch between different solvers
High flexibility means any simulation started with Explicit can be continued with Abaqus Standard.
