Key defense engineering services
The core business of Femto Engineering is Computer Aided Engineering (CAE): performing advanced simulations with state-of-the-art software to predict the behavior of complex systems.
We help customers validate designs, solve engineering challenges, and support certification for defense applications using methods such as Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for structural integrity and fatigue, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for airflow and thermal behavior, and system simulations (1D models) for performance and system-level analysis.
To deliver these insights, we leverage industry-leading tools including Simcenter Femap, Simcenter STAR-CCM+, Simcenter Amesim, and solutions from Altair. As a Siemens Digital Industries Software Gold Partner, we combine deep technical expertise with direct access to the latest simulation technologies, ensuring high-fidelity, reliable, and scalable analyses for complex defense applications.
Building on this CAE foundation, Femto Engineering delivers a focused portfolio of defense engineering services, including:

Shock certification is one of Femto’s key specializations in the defense industry.
Critical equipment on naval vessels must remain operational after shock or blast events. Using advanced simulation techniques, Femto validates whether components meet NATO requirements.
Our shock analysis practices:
- Shock response analysis of naval equipment
- Blast load assessment of onboard components
- Structural verification
- Support for certification and qualification processes
- Design improvements for shock resistanc
Typical components we assess:
- Winches
- Valves
- Doors
- Protective walls
- Propulsion systems

Mission-critical defense systems must perform reliably under extreme operational conditions.
We perform structural analyses to ensure that systems meet NATO design standards and operational loads, for example in rollover protection structures (ROPS).
Example services:
- Structural strength verification
- Fatigue analysis and life time expansion program
- Structural optimization

Femto supports shipyards, OEMs, and suppliers with advanced simulations for naval platforms and onboard equipment.
Examples of engineering analyses:
- Dynamic response of frigate masts with radar systems
- Structural analysis of ship hull structures
- Recoil analysis for weapon systems
- Integration analysis of onboard equipment
- Weight optimization of naval structures
