Software developed at the Department of Mechanics:

OOFEM - object-oriented finite element code, developed by Bořek Patzák and coworkers
SIFEL - Simple Finite Elements, developed by Jaroslav Kruis and coworkers
T3D - three-dimensional mesh generator developed by Daniel Rypl
EduBeam - static analysis of planar frames, developed by Bořek Patzák and coworkers

Selected software potentially useful for scientific applications:

Engauge Digitizer - conversion of an image file containing graphs into a text file with numbers specifying the coordinates of selected points
Gnuplot - portable command-line driven graphing utility
Maxima - computer algebra system
Octave - open-source tool similar to Matlab
ParaView - open-source, multi-platform data analysis and visualization application
PDF scissors - a tool to crop pdfs; usefull for reading pdf files (especially the scanned ones) easily in ebook readers
Veusz - scientific plotting package
Zotero [zoh-TAIR-oh] - free, easy-to-use tool to help you collect, organize, cite, and share your research sources. It lives right where you do your work—in the web browser itself.
