*[http://impact.sourceforge.net/ Impact] is an open source finite element program suite which can be used to predict most dynamic events such as car crashes or metal sheet punch operations. They usually involve large deformations and high velocities. Simulations are made on a virtual three dimensional model which can be created with a pre-processor or with the built-in Fembic language. Results are viewed in a post-processor. | *[http://impact.sourceforge.net/ Impact] is an open source finite element program suite which can be used to predict most dynamic events such as car crashes or metal sheet punch operations.

*[http://cern49.cee.uiuc.edu/cfm/warp3d.html WARP3D] is under continuing development as a research code for the solution of very large-scale, 3-D solid models subjected to static and dynamic loads. Specific features in the code oriented toward the investigation of fracture in metals include a robust finite strain formulation, a general J-integral computation facility (with inertia, thermal, face loading), interaction integrals for computation of linear-elastic fracture parameters, very general element extinction and node release facilities to model crack growth, nonlinear material models including viscoplastic and cyclic, cohesive elements and cohesive constitutive models, and the Gurson-Tvergaard dilatant plasticity model for void growth. | *[http://cern49.cee.uiuc.edu/cfm/warp3d.html WARP3D] is under continuing development as a research code for the solution of very large-scale, 3-D solid models subjected to static and dynamic loads.
