Finite Element Software Rating: 8,7/10 7611 reviews

Though less intuitive, the finite-element method has been chosen over the finite-difference method primarily because its use of triangular elements greatly simplifies the discrete approximation of non-rectangular geometries. FEHT provides three essential functions: Problem Definition, Calculations, and Output. 43 rows This is a list of software packages that implement the finite element method for solving partial differential equations.
