About FAC

Specializing in software development for 3D fracture simulation.

Fracture Analysis Consultants, Inc. (FAC) was founded in 1988 as a spin-off from high-technology R&D at Cornell University. Our mission is to provide our customers with state-of-the-art software and services in computational fracture mechanics.

The basis for this is FRANC3D, which provides 3D finite element based crack growth simulations capabilites.
