One of the earliest goals of NAFEMS was to develop a set of  'Benchmarks' against which analysis codes could be tested.  Today many major vendors routinely use these benchmarks to demonstrate the accuracy of their code. 

This verification manual has been provided by Altair Engineering to demonstrate the NAFEMS benchmark which are used as part of the software code quality assurance process. 

NAFEMS Members can access the verification manual using the "NAFEMS Members Download" button opposite.
