LEADING DESIGN TOOL FOR CHEMICAL EXPOSURE ANALYSIS

CheFEM 3 Software
The CheFEM App is a leading design tool used for the virtual analysis of chemical exposure effects on polymers and their composites. Its core code utilizes the calibrated Sanchez-Lacombe Equation of States and Finite Element Methodology (FEM). CheFEM can operate as a standalone application or seamlessly integrate as a 'chemical exposure plug-in' with other widely-used mechanically-oriented FEM packages, such as Abaqus, Ansys and SolidWorks.
