What is femML? |
| Effort: |
The
finite element modeling Markup Language
(femML) is an
effort addressing the problems of data interpretation and
application interoperability in the Finite Element Modeling domain
of activities for model and/or product specification portability. |
| XML
dialect: |
It is a XML dialect defined in XML like
any other XML variant, applied to describing the data structure of
FEM data exchange and integration for ubiquitous product/model
intra- and inter-application portability. |
| Specification: |
It is a specification given in terms
of:
- UML abstract descriptions of a DTD
- Document Type Definition (DTD)
- W3C and Microsoft Schemas
|
| Examples: |
It is a set of examples and
custom tools that facilitate the usage, understanding and evolution
of the specification. |
| Acknowledgements: |
This is an effort that would not have
started if there was not evidence that this approach is a workable
solution. The historical demonstrations of this evidence has been
given by all the nice folks that participated in the XSIL,
FieldML
and X3D efforts that
predated femML. We wish to express our appreciation to all these
folks for taking the initiative to go after what they thought it was
right. We also want to express our appreciation to the MatML
effort participants for pursuing their goals in a way that is very
complementary to our effort. |

Objectives of femML effort |
| Define
a Standard: |
Define a standard for the exchange of
FEM data (including product shape, associated FEM models, material
properties and analysis results) that will allow a person or
a computer application to interpret and use the data regardless
of its source or target and regardless of the taxonomic order
of the FEA model.
This effort minimally corresponds to
defining:
- A set of XML Tags,
- Relationships and constraints on these tags,
- Document
Type Definition (DTD) or/and Schema
|
| Define
Examples: |
Define
and develop a set of examples that follow the standard. |
| Develop
Tools: |
Define
and develop a set of tools for the utilization of this standard from
and to other applications. Also evelop examples of using these
tools. |
| Develop
a framework: |
Develop
a long-term framework for utilization of legacy RDBMS systems, 3D
visualization viewer systems, and light-wait asynchronous processes
architectures (i.e. agents), for achieving a truly distributed and
transparent capability to utilize FEM techniques in highly
functional, economical, and ubiquitous manner. |
