That would be field::engineering:fea by anology with the biology subfields.

It doesn't - but a science-engineering metapackage has been created,
and therefore perhaps it should.

AFAICT from http://www.salome-platform.org/home/presentation/overview/
while salome doesn't perform FEA calculations, it can be used to
create meshes and display results from FEA - which is why I suggested
it in that category. It wouldn't however fit in a numerical methods
category.
