Welcome to CSS

CSS is a specialized cross-section solver library designed to deliver precise cross-sectional parameters and stress distributions for complex beam cross-sections. Engineered for dynamic wind turbine analysis and other demanding applications, CSS provides the accuracy and reliability you need for critical structural assessments. Discover the capabilities of CSS and how it can enhance your analysis workflows.

Key Features

Thin-Walled Cross Sections

CSS excels in analyzing thin-walled cross sections, offering detailed insights into their structural behavior. This feature is essential for applications where thin-walled components play a crucial role, ensuring accurate predictions of stress distributions and overall performance.

Solid Cross Sections

For applications involving solid cross sections, CSS provides robust analysis tools to evaluate their structural parameters. This versatility allows you to model and analyze a wide range of geometries with confidence, ensuring reliable results across different structural forms.

Composite Cross Sections

CSS supports composite cross sections, enabling you to analyze materials with varying properties and configurations. This capability is particularly valuable for modern engineering applications where composites are increasingly used for their superior strength-to-weight ratios and tailored properties.

Comprehensive Mesh Support

The program supports .msh file format, compatible with Gmsh, and offers flexibility in mesh element types. CSS currently supports three- and six-node triangles, as well as four- and nine-node quadrilaterals, allowing you to choose the best mesh configuration for your analysis needs.
