Software Description:
Trelis is csimsoft’s high-end commercialpre-processor for FEA and CFD, based on the time-proven CUBIT™geometry preparation and mesh generation software from SandiaNational Laboratories. For more than two decades, csimsoft andSandia has developed CUBIT software. Now, csimsoft is Sandia’sauthorized distributor for academic and commercial use.
Some companies need the tools to generate meshes for both FEA andCFD analysis. Trelis Pro contains all the features of Trelis FEA™and Trelis CFD™ in one package.

Trelis Features:
Trelis 14.0 raises the standard for FEA and CFD pre-processing.Companies worldwide realize how critical mesh generation is to FEAand CFD analysis. With Trelis FEA and Trelis CFD, users havespecific tools for generating great meshes for either FEA or CFDsolvers. Here’s why people are talking about Trelis.
High-end Hexahedral, Tetrahedral, and HybridMeshing:
For more than two decades, we’ve been developing the core meshingalgorithms that make Trelis such a powerful mesh generation toolfor CFD and FEA. We love hearing from users that they can meshmodels that other leading tools can’t mesh.
– Powerful Geometry Creation and CleanupTools:
Trelis allows users to import geometry from many popular CADprograms or to create models using primitives or from the bottomup. We estimate that engineers spend up to 65% of their timepreparing geometry for meshing. We developed a significant amountof the Trelis development creating powerful tools for clean up anddefeaturing.
– Power Tools:
Trelis’s Power Tools help users to identify problems with geometrybefore meshing and recommend solutions for getting it ready formeshing. After a mesh is generated, additional Power Tools checkthe mesh quality based on various metrics and values the userspecifies.
– ITEM Wizard:
Immersive Topology Environment for Meshing (ITEM) is a wizard-liketool for geometry cleanup and mesh generation. The ITEM Wizard usesthe power tools to guide users through the meshing process. TheITEM steps are:
– Import/Create Geometry
– Setup Model
– Prepare Geometry
– Mesh the Model
– Validate Mesh
– Define Boundary Conditions
– Export the Mesh
Scripting, Journal Files, andParameterization:
Trelis utilizes a rich command language that can be stored as ajournal file. These scripts can be used to parameterize theconstruction of models to determine design sensitivity and tocapture repetitive meshing processes.
Boundary Conditions:
Trelis support the application of boundary conditions to sidesets,nodesets, element blocks, and to geometric entities. Trelis FEA andTrelis CFD support a variety of FEA and CFD boundary conditions,respectively. Trelis Pro supports both FEA and CFD boundaryconditions.
Solver Format Support:
Meshes generated with Trelis are exported with specified boundaryconditions to many standard FEA and CFD formats. If Trelis doesn’tsupport a particular file format, Trelis’s public mesh export APIallows users to write their own exporter for any file format.
Customizable Components:
Trelis users use the CubitInterface API (C++ and Python) to extendTrelis by building custom components that are focused on solving aspecific problem or type of problem. Trelis’s GUI components areextensible and modifiable so users can customize the interface tosuite their needs..
Intuitive Environment:
Trelis includes both a convenient command line interface with anextensive command language as well as a polished graphical userinterface environment.
New features were added to make geometry preparation easier and tooffer support for importing and exporting more file formats. Coremeshing and sizing algorithms have been improved to give bettermesh quality. Significant improvements to the GUI makes Trelis eveneasier to use.
