MSC.Software Continues to Enhance MSC.Nastran Capabilities With
Release of MSC.Robust Design 2004 r2
Powerful Stochastics Software Improved With Functionality for Nonlinear
Simulation; Enhanced Services Launched Including Outsourced Cluster Computing
SANTA ANA, Calif., June 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MSC.Software Corp.
(NYSE:MNS), the leading global provider of virtual product development (VPD)
products, including simulation software and services, today announced the
availability of MSC.Robust Design 2004 r2. MSC.Robust Design drives
probabilistic analysis with MSC.Nastran simulations by allowing the efficient
investigation of multiple variables and design parameters. The results of
MSC.Nastran and MSC.Robust Design simulations provide customers with deeper
insight and better understanding of design sensitivity, allowing them to better
manage risk and improve product quality, safety and performance.
"MSC.Robust Design specifically supports stochastic simulation with MSC.Nastran
and provides a very efficient environment to study real life uncertainties and
product performance," said Frank Perna, chairman and chief executive officer of
MSC.Software. "Used in combination, MSC.Nastran and MSC.Robust Design help
customers increase their productivity and improve their product development
processes and results. We are convinced that our customers will see immediate
benefit from providing access to the industry's most widely-used simulation
tool from the industry's most powerful stochastics environment and, with a
range of complementary services, enable rapid return on their investment in
this exciting technology."
The second release of MSC.Robust Design is highlighted by the enhanced
non-linear capabilities in MSC.Nastran 2004 (Sol600), which is based on the
powerful technology of MSC.Marc. The simulation of 3D contact and nonlinear
problems is increasingly important for manufacturers testing deformable bodies
and complex assemblies.
In addition, a new bi-directional interface to Microsoft Excel provides users
with the capability to leverage MSC.Robust Design's unique post processing
capabilities on data generated from other sources. Furthermore, results from
MSC.Robust Design can be exported to Excel for further annotation and inclusion
in reports.
To complement the new functionality within MSC.Robust Design, MSC.Software has
launched a number of new services offerings for stochastics simulation
including:
* Training: Two-day standard course on MSC.Robust Design and stochastic
mechanics is available at one of MSC's offices or at customer sites.
* Engineering Consulting Services: A customer provides MSC.Software with
a model and certain design objectives, and MSC delivers a complete
stochastic solution to the problem. The two specific services are:
* Stochastic Simulation: Computation of the most likely product
performance, performance scatter (quality), outliers and
pathologies determination (if any), for multiple disciplines
(statics, vibration, buckling, etc.)
* Stochastic Design Improvement: Design-to-target, with particular
focus on mass reduction, while satisfying multiple objectives
(statics, vibration, buckling, etc.)
* Advanced Engineering Services: Special projects beyond the scope of
the standard version of MSC.Robust Design and which involve coupling
of different applications (proprietary codes, MSC.Software's Laminate
Modeler, commercial crash codes, etc.). MSC.Software's 64 CPU Linux
cluster is dedicated for this purpose.
MSC.Robust Design runs on Windows operating systems including Windows NT,
Windows 2000 and Windows XP. It can also be used to run MSC.Nastran
simulations in a networked environment (Linux, UNIX, etc.). It is currently
shipping to customers in all world regions and is available under the
MSC.Software MasterKey Licensing System. For more information about MSC.Robust
