Requirements
Last updated: 16 May 2012
Speed of use when
building models and the time required to analyse and process
results can vary a great deal depending upon the size of model,
the loadcases considered and the types of analysis performed. As
such it is difficult to be too specific about minimum hardware
requirements for general applications.
