About NovaSolver

What is NovaSolver?

NovaSolver is a platform that provides real-time simulators where you can manipulate parameters and experience physical phenomena firsthand, along with CAE (Computer-Aided Engineering) technical articles. It is completely free, requires no registration, and no installation — all you need is a browser.

Simulators

We offer over 1605 interactive simulators across 22 fields including structural analysis, fluid dynamics, thermal analysis, electromagnetics, physics, and mathematics.

Simulator Features

• Real-Time Interaction — Adjust parameters with sliders or drag on the canvas, and watch graphs respond instantly
• Playback Speed Control — Pause, step frame-by-frame, or slow down to observe physical phenomena closely
• Overlay Comparison — Display and compare up to 5 sets of results with different parameters side by side
• Theory Included — Beautiful LaTeX-rendered equations via MathJax to help you understand the underlying physics
• Difficulty Labels — Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced level tags to help you find the right tool

CAE Technical Articles

We systematically organize over 2,000+ technical articles across structural analysis, fluid dynamics, electromagnetic analysis, thermal analysis, and multiphysics coupling. Each topic is examined from six perspectives: theory, numerical methods, practical application, tool comparison, cutting-edge technology, and troubleshooting.

About the Team

NovaSolver Contributors

NovaSolver is operated by a collective of volunteer CAE engineers and AI agents. It is a vendor-independent, neutral platform where quality of knowledge — not individual names — is what matters.

Neutrality

We have no capital ties or reseller agreements with any software vendor. We evaluate commercial solvers (ABAQUS, Ansys, NASTRAN, OpenFOAM, etc.) fairly and objectively.
