Desktop Engineering announce availability of SimOffice from MSC Software

SimOffice - Powerful, Yet Easy-to-Use Design Analysis and Validation SimOffice provides comprehensive analysis capabilities to evaluate stress, dynamics, and thermal response for a variety of products, from simple to complex. Built on Microsoft Windows and Microsoft .NET enabled, SimOffice is the first CAE environment certified” Works with Vista”. SimOffice includes the following core capabilities: · Out-of-the box, all-in-one CAE Solution incorporating: o CAD Interface o Geometry and Finite Element Modelling o Job Submission and analysis o Results analysis and reporting o Automation and integration o State-of-the-art, Windows-native modeling environment · Embedded MD Nastran solver technology · CAD Neutral – supporting most of industries leading CAD formats and interchange formats · Upward compatibility to MSC Engineering and Enterprise products · Runs PATRAN session files and Patran Command Level (PCL) scripts · Seamless integration with Microsoft productivity and collaboration solutions · High performance compute capability for larger analyses Intuitive Modelling Environment for the Design Engineer SimOffice enables everyone from the casual user to the expert analyst to validate product designs - speeding up the design cycle, reducing the need for expensive prototypes, and improving product quality. A Windows-native, Office 2007 modelled, intuitive user interface makes it simple to mesh CAD-native geometry, apply loads and boundary conditions, run analyses, and evaluate the results of product simulations under real-world operating conditions. Harnessing the Power of MD Nastran SimOffice is powered by MD Nastran – based on the most widely-used finite element solver in the world - to deliver robust and reliable analysis capabilities for stress, vibration, and other performance aspects of proposed designs. While most simulations can be performed on the engineer's desktop computer, SimOffice's built-in compatibility with MSC Software SimEnterprise solutions also allows large, compute-intensive simulations to be run using MD Nastran on high performance servers. Desktop Engineering offer 30 day free trial versions or web based demonstrations. Call on 01993 883555
