DIANA (DIsplacement ANAlyzer) is an extensive multi-purpose finite element software package that can be utilised in a wide range of engineering sectors:
- Civil (including structural) Engineering
- Geotechnical Engineering
- Tunnel & Underground Excavations
- Geotechnical Engineering
- Earthquake Engineering
- Oil & Gas Engineering
DIANA is a well proven and tested software package that has been used on various landmark projects all across the world.
The program's robust functionality includes extensive material models, element libraries and analysis procedures, which are based on the latest and the most advanced finite element analysis techniques.
DIANA has been equipped with powerful solvers in order to optimise the analysis of all types of linear and nonlinear models with accurate results and fast computations.
Its unique analysis capabilities are empowered by full modelling capabilities, in both 2D and 3D, and includes tools for CAD/BIM interoperability.
The DIANA Interactive Environment consists of a series of graphical design tools, and meshing tools. DIANAIE has been designed, with users in mind, to provide a smooth and user-friendly process to set up models in both 2D and 3D environments.
Incorporated within DIANA is a dedicated set of constitutive material models associated with model codes for concrete, steel, alloy, reinforcement, fiber materials, soil, sand and rock - and many more.
Also included are predefined sections, and different element types - for use depending on the reference application.
DIANA is equipped with a series of dedicated workflows covering most conventional analyses, design checks, and a range of automatically generated reports.
DIANA offers a range of features which enables the user to exchange models with BIM and CAD programs.
DIANA has been developed as a powerful platform which is integrated with smart engineering applications to provide a full circle "data trip" for users. These include input from BIM, CAD and python, parametric and automated procedures.
