Mecway or LISA

ScotsmanScotsman
Please explain the connection. I purchased LISA a year or so back.
The program is obviously the same so is Mecway FEA now LISA.

    It is my understanding that Victor worked for LISA. He left LISA and started Mecway. Mecway is essentially a fork of LISA. Mecway has some updates that LISA does not have.

    Yes, that's right. Both businesses have an agreement to sell the product based on the same original code. A few of the additional features that Mecway has are:

    - Both 32 and 64 bit. Much larger models can be solved with a 64 bit computer.
    - Fully units aware. There is no need to use a consistent unit system or remember what they should be.
    - DXF file import
    - New loads and constraints like frictionless support, compression-only support, elastic support and hydrostatic pressure.
    - Damping
    - Nonlinear static analysis for solid and truss elements. Only includes geometric nonlinearities such as stress stiffening and large rotations.
    - Loads and constraints can be applied directly to the CAD model by clicking surfaces
    - Sweep tool to generate shell and solid meshes extruded along curved paths

    Victor, for future versions, can we apply load and contraints directly to CAD shell model by clicking on the edges? Thanks
