Altair SimSolid 2022.3 - Verification Problems

One of the earliest goals of NAFEMS was to develop a set of 'Benchmarks' against which analysis codes could be tested. Today many major vendors routinely use these benchmarks to demonstrate the accuracy of their code.

This verification manual has been provided by Altair Engineering and show the NAFEMS benchmarks which are used as part of the software code quality assurance process. The manual is associated with the SimSolid 2022.3 code.
