This article may meet Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion because in its current form it serves only to promote or publicise an entity, person, product, or idea, and would require a fundamental rewrite in order to become encyclopedic. However, the mere fact that a company, organization, or product is a page's subject does not, on its own, qualify that page for deletion under this criterion. This criterion also does not apply where substantial encyclopedic content would remain after removing the promotional material as deletion is not cleanup; in this case please remove the promotional material yourself, or add the {{advert}} tag to alert others to do so. See CSD G11.
If this article does not meet the criteria for speedy deletion, or you intend to fix it, please remove this notice, but do not remove this notice from pages that you have created yourself. If you created this page and you disagree with the given reason for deletion, you can click the button below and leave a message explaining why you believe it should not be deleted. You can also visit the talk page to check if you have received a response to your message. Note that this article may be deleted at any time if it unquestionably meets the speedy deletion criteria, or if an explanation posted to the talk page is found to be insufficient.
Note to administrators: this article has content on its talk page which should be checked before deletion. Administrators: check links, talk, history (last), and logs before deletion.

ALGOR is general-purpose multiphysics finite element analysis software package, actively developed by ALGOR Incorporated, Pittsburgh, PA 15238-2932 USA.
ALGOR is sold in various core packages including: multiphysics, mechanical event simulation, static (linear and nonlinear materials), and computational fluid dynamics. It also has many add-on features such as PipePak (for piping and pressure vessels) and FEMPRO (for drawing the model).
A notable aspect of ALGOR is its extensive support; offered through free online step-by-step videos and purchasable in depth tutorials. A new free webcast is usually broadcast every Tuesday at 1000h (GMT - 0500h).
Algor is used by many scientists and engineers worldwide[1]. It has found application in aerospace[2], and it has received many favorable reviews[3][4][5]. The current version is v20, and it is available for 32- and 64-bit Microsoft Windows and GNU/Linux operating systems
Typical uses
- Bending; stress–strain
- mechanical contact
- thermal (conduction, convection, radiation)
- fluid dynamics
- coupled and uncoupled multiphysics
Materials and elements database
ALGOR's library of material models includes:
- Metals and alloys
- Plastics
- Glass
- Foams
- Fabrics
- Elastomers
- Concrete (with rebar) and soils
- User-defined materials
ALGOR's element library depends on the geometry and type of analysis performed, but includes:
- 8 and 4 node bricks
- 8 and 4 node shells
- Beam and trusses
