FEAPpv versus FEAP
FEAP options
UNIX/LINUX
! To compile in a UNIX/LINUX environment edit the
makefile.in file to have the correct name for your
compiler (e.g., f77, g77, or f90 ), path to locate the
include files for each of the source files and location
where the archive (library) is to be located.
! Enter the command: make install
! Complete compilation will be made automatically
(unless some parameters are not correctly set in
makefile.in!).
Windows
! Once the files are unzipped, compilation is
performed using the Development Studio.
! Two predefined files for the Compaq/HP Visual
Fortran compiler are located in subdirectory build
to assist in compiling an executable program.
! All subprograms are contained in the library file in
directory libpv and the libary and main program are
contained in the directory feappv .
! User subprograms should only be added to the
feappv build.
! Follow directions for the compiler to load and
compile the library and main program modules.
FEAPpv
! FEAPpv A Finite Element Analysis Program:
Personal Version
! FEAPpv is a general purpose finite element analysis
program which is designed for research and
educational use.
! The program is described in the references
The Finite Element Method, 6th ed., Vols. 1 and 2, by
O.C. Zienkiewicz and R.L. Taylor, Elsevier, Oxford,
2005, (www.elsevier.com).
! FEAPpv is designed to be compatible for compilation
in UNIX/LINUX and Windows PC environments
Windows
! Step-by-step instructions are available to compiling
the program using the Compaq/HP Visual Fortran
compiler.
! By some modifications in setting path, and installing
the source files these instructions may also be used
to build the program using the MicroSoft Fortran
PowerStation 4.0 or the Digital Visual Fortran 6.0
compilers.
! The file may be downloaded by selecting
(README.TXT).

! FEAPpv User Manual: v2.0 - - - (January 2005)
! N.B. PDF files require Acrobat Reader to print.
! To add user functions, consult the FEAP
programmer manual to supplement the above user
and book descriptions. See web site
www.ce.berkeley.edu/~rlt/feap for manual download.
FEAP
! FEAP is a general purpose finite element analysis
program which is designed for research and
educational use.
! Source code of the full program is available for
compilation using Windows (Compaq or Intel
compiler), LINUX or UNIX operating systems, and
Mac OS X based Apple systems.
FEAP options
! Constitutive models include:
! linear and finite elasticity,
! viscoelasticity with damage, and
! elasto-plasticity.
! The system may also be used in conjunction with
mesh generation programs that have an option to
output nodal coordinates and element connection
arrays.
! In this case it may be necessary to write user
functions to input the data generated from the mesh
generation program.

User functions and elements
! To add user functions, consult the FEAP
programmer manual to supplement the above user
and book descriptions. See web site
www.ce.berkeley.edu/~rlt/feap for user manual
download.
! Examples for some simple user elements may be
found at the web site www.ce.berkeley.edu/~rlt/feap
(Examples manual download).
FEAP options
! The FEAP program includes options for
! defining one, two, and three dimensional meshes,
! defining a wide range of linear and nonlinear solution
algorithms,
! graphics options for displaying meshes and contouring
solution values,
! an element library for linear and nonlinear solids, thermal
elements, two and three dimensional frame (rod/beam)
elements, plate and shell elements, and multiple rigid body
options with joint interactions.
Additional elements
! User elements may be added to the FEAP system to extend
solution capabilities (See FEAP Programmer Manual).
! The elements given below are examples of elements which
are useful in educational applications to demonstrate the
behavior of finite element solutions of classical applications
! Rectangular thin plate element (elmt05.f: Bogner-Fox-Schmit
rectangle)
! Rectangular thin plate element (elmt06.f: DKQ rectangle)
! Triangular thin plate element (elmt07.f: DKT rectangle)
! Elastic St. Venant torsion element (elmt11.f: Warping and stress
function solutions)
! Plastic St. Venant torsion element (elmt12.f: Warping function
solution with Mises plasticity and isotropic hardening)
