摘要:The preprocessors are the interface between the engineer and the programs used in finite elements analysis. This interface need to be very well constructed to minimize the input errors. Thus, it is presenting a Windows preprocessor for building slab analysis by Finite Element Method. It is an interactive program, allowing problems to be identified while the model is generated. It has graphical resources to define the structure. The program output is defined by the user; therefore it is possible to use the preprocessor with many other finite element programs. This allows the engineer to choose the appropriate program depending on the kind of analysis is wanted. The program can define frame and shell finite elements. As slabs usually need large numbers of these elements to be properly analyzed, they are generated using automatic meshing.
