    FreeCAD

    FreeCAD

    a parametric 3D CAD modeler

    This is an official mirror of FreeCAD. Code and release files are primarily hosted on https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD and mirrored here. FreeCAD is a general purpose feature-based, parametric 3D modeler for CAD, MCAD, CAx, CAE and PLM, aimed directly at mechanical engineering and product design but also fits a wider range of uses in engineering, such as architecture or other engineering specialties. It is 100% Open Source and extremely modular, allowing for very advanced extension and customization. FreeCAD is based on OpenCasCade, a powerful geometry kernel, features an Open Inventor-compliant 3D scene representation model provided by the Coin 3D library, and a broad Python API. The interface is built with Qt. FreeCAD runs exactly the same way on Windows, Mac OSX and Linux platforms.

    CloudCompare

    CloudCompare

    CloudCompare main repository

    CloudCompare is a 3D point cloud (and triangular mesh) processing software. It was originally designed to perform comparison between two 3D points clouds (such as the ones obtained with a laser scanner) or between a point cloud and a triangular mesh. It relies on an octree structure that is highly optimized for this particular use-case. It was also meant to deal with huge point clouds (typically more than 10 million points, and up to 120 million with 2 GB of memory).

    OpenWAM
    The 1-dimensional gas-dynamics code. More information in http://www.openwam.com Modeling is an important technique for the optimization of internal combustion engines (ICE). The use of calculation models together with experimental tests is producing unquestionable successes due to the fact that both techniques complement each other. 1D wave action models simplify the engine by means of ducts, where only one dimension is considered, and volumes where mass accumulation is considered and the gas properties are uniform in the entire element. Finally, non dimensional models are used to solve connections between 1D and 0D elements. Thanks to more than 20 years, more than 10 PhD Thesis and many research projects and publications, CMT-Motores Térmicos has developed an own 1D gasdynamic tool called OpenWAMTM which gathers an important know-how on air management, compressible flow, turbocharging, chemical species tracking, numerical analysis and many other aspects of engine modeling.

    NLIGA

    NLIGA

    Open source Matlab code for nonlinear isogeometric analysis

    A unified framework, NLIGA (Non-Linear Isogeometric Analysis), is developed for mainly solving two and three-dimensional nonlinear problems on the MATLAB platform by using isogeometric analysis (IGA). Nonlinear hyperelastic and elastoplastic materials are primarily considered at this stage. Newton-Raphson method is used to solve the nonlinear governing equations. A series of benchmark examples are performed to validate the procedures. The visualization procedures are also developed to visualize the obtained results including displacements, stresses and numerical errors.

    jEPlus - Parametrics for E+ and TRNSYS

    jEPlus - Parametrics for E+ and TRNSYS

    An EnergyPlus shell for parametric studies and more ...

    Parametric analysis is often needed for exploring design options, especially when a global optimization method is not available, or the optimization result is in doubt. Parametric analysis can also be applied to all design variables simultaneously, which forms an exhaustive search that, providing that the search grid is fine enough, will guarantee a global optimum solution. In order to perform complex parametric analyses on multiple parameters with more than a handful of alternative values each, a tool to generate commands for the simulation model to run, and to collect results afterwards will be needed. jEPlus has been developed as such a parametric tool for EnergyPlus. To see jEPlus in action, check out this video: http://youtu.be/jBA7Q7npNK4 The source code of the jEPlus project is now hosted on GitHub: https://github.com/jeplus/jEPlus/
