2D Finite Element Method (FEM) for Civil & Structural
Apply the 2d finite element method (fem) to real civil & structural problems — in the browser, with AI assistance.
This is the 2d variant of the Finite Element Method (FEM). FEM approximates a continuous field with piecewise basis functions over a mesh, assembling a large sparse system that is solved for nodal values. It is the workhorse of structural, thermal, and electromagnetic analysis.
In civil & structural, teams face challenges like load and seismic response, material fatigue, wind loading. The 2d finite element method (fem) directly supports use cases such as structural fea, seismic modal analysis, wind-load cfd, and PolySim's AI Copilot can recommend settings and catch common setup errors before you run.

- Structural FEA
- Seismic modal analysis
