Software Databox
Software Name: VABS
Description: Variational Asymptotical Beam Sectional Analysis (VABS) is a unique tool capable of realistic modeling of initially curved and twisted anisotropic beams with arbitrary sectional topology and materials. Relative to 3D analyses, two to three orders of magnitude in computing time can be saved using VABS, with little loss of accuracy. The advantages of VABS over other technologies have been clearly demonstrated by virtue of its generality, accuracy, and efficiency.
