Non-Linear Finite Element Design and Analysis of Spiders and Surrounds. Select a configuration from 5 differentTemplates, and just input your own dimensions, without the need of CAD files.

Non-Linear FEA calc of Kms(x), Cms(x) and F(x) for simulated spiders and surrounds.

Spiders and Surround can now be calculated as Combined.

The total linear range per IEC 62458 is shown for the combination.

The Combined Cms of ABR’s can be entered directly into FINEBox
