Where can I find a finite element analysis library for the .NET platform?

Question

I could use a library that implements the Finite Element Method in my winforms application. Is there available any such library for the .NET platform?

Answer 1

From what I know, there's only one company that provides .NET software for finite element analysis. Visit Anaxsoft (www.anaxsoft.com). They provide a finite element analysis SDK for the .NET Framework.

Answer 2

I've found these finite element packages for .net from internet.

Not open source (some have free editions):

• EngiSSol 3D frame analysis
• SolverBlaze Finite Element Library
• AnaxSoft FEEA SDK

Open sources:

• BriefFiniteElement.NET
• feaserver
• #FE

Answer 3

Engineering Software Solutions offers a great library for .net with numerous advantages over anaxsoft library. We have been using engissol's libraries for 2 years without any problem and are very happy especially when solving geometrically non linear problems (second oreder theory). On the other hand, anaxosft library had some bugs preventing the integration to our c# application interface.

Answer 4

SolverBlaze Finite Element Library (http://www.cg-inc.com/Product/SolverBlaze) offers both .NET and C++ interface.
