'''ALGOR''' is a general-purpose multiphysics [[finite element analysis]] software package developed by ALGOR Incorporated for use on the [[Microsoft Windows]] and [[GNU/Linux]] computer [[operating systemssystem]]s. It is distributed in a number of different core packages to cater to specifics applications, such as mechanical event simulation and [[computational fluid dynamics]].
ALGOR is used by many scientists and engineers worldwide.<ref>http://algor.com/service_support/customer/default.asp</ref>. It has found application in aerospace<ref>J. B.
