AMPS Technologies Co. announced AMPS 6.6 with Sefea is now available for download. According to the company, Sefea, Strain-Enriched Finite Element Analysis, is "breakthrough" FEM technology, utilizing automatic generated low-order tetrahedron elements to achieve results virtually equivalent to legacy methods employing large numbers of 2nd-order tetra or brick elements.

AMPS Technologies Co., working with several key partners, has combined the meshless and the finite element methods to include large deformations, multiphysics (stress, thermal, CFD, and electro-magnetic), and nonlinear materials.
 
AMPS 6.6 also contains a multithread finite element engine that uses a proprietary “lock free” thread pool technology that pushes all cores in all CPUs to the system’s limit. The refined mesh generation now will handle large assembly parts with automatic material boundary preservation, meshing consistency, and parts interference checking and repair.
