Extreme Loading for Structures Software – ELS Version 8.0
Extreme Loading for Structures Software or ELS, is an advanced non-linear structural analysis software tool designed specifically for structural engineers. ELS allows structural engineers to study the 3D behavior of structures through both the continuum and discrete stages of loading. This includes static and dynamic loads such as those generated by a blast, seismic events, impact, progressive collapse, and the wind. Unlike many structural analysis software tools which are based on the Finite Element Method (FEM), ELS utilizes a non-linear solver based on the Applied Element Method (AEM).
This allows ELS is to automatically analyze structural behavior during elastic and inelastic modes including the automatic yielding of reinforcement, detection, and generation of plastic hinges, buckling & post-buckling, crack propagation, membrane action & P-Delta effect, and separation of elements. The resulting debris and impacts with structural elements are also automatically analyzed and stress redistribution is inherently calculated.
Extreme Loading for Structures (ELS), Version 8.0! ELS is used by structural engineers and researchers around the world to study the effects of blast, progressive collapse, wind, earthquake, projectile impact, and other extreme loads on structures.
This new version of Extreme Loading® for Structures (ELS) reinforces the fact that ELS is a practical easy-to-use structural analysis software program created for practicing engineers who have complex projects with non-traditional load cases. The majority of the new features provided in ELS Version 8 are advanced modeling and postprocessing features proposed by software users who wanted additional tools to help them create and solve more complex models. Additional features have been added to provide ease-of-use and versatility for everyday projects.
