X-Elastica

Advanced Nonlinear Analysis

Complex Concrete and Reinforced Concrete Structures
Through Advanced Non-Linear Analyses

A little bit about us.

X-Elastica is a small consulting firm, based in Boulder CO, focusing on the nonlinear analysis of complex concrete and reinforced concrete structures through advanced non-linear analyses. We specialize in AAR, nonlinear dynamic analysis, probabilistic based failure analyses and related matters.

Focus areas include: concrete dams, nuclear containment structures, bridges, and buildings.

We use in-house developed software (developed and fine-tuned over a cumulative ~50 years) to perform state of the art analysis when all else failed to provide satisfactory results.

Our company has its root in academia, our tools have been extensively reviewed through peer-reviewed articles in top journals, our focus is exclusively on complex problems that can not be addressed with commercial codes.
