The general purpose software, XFINAS which is an eXtended version of FINAS of Imperial College, London, has been developed in AIT and Konkuk University, Seoul, Korea.

XFINAS enables a powerful nonlinear structural dynamic analysis with material and geometric nonlinearity.

A large number of numerical validations of XFINAS elements show that all solutions are in excellent agreements with the references.
