FEA Package

The FEA Package offers a cost effective, tightly integrated solution for the needs of engineers, and comes with Patran and MSC Nastran. In addition to the capabilities of Patran, MSC Nastran enables you to:

  • Perform Linear Statics, Buckling, and Dynamic Analysis.

  • Use connectors for system level analysis.

  • Reduce effort meshing with MSC Nastran’s innovative Glued Contact capability.

  • Integrate FE models with MSC Software’s multi body simulation solution Adams.

  • Study steady state and transient thermal scenarios.

  • Effectively optimize with sophisticated optimization tools.

  • Engage in Rotor Dynamic studies.

  • Predict product behavior when subjected to shock with MSC Nastran’s Dynamic Design Analysis Method.

TFEA Package

The TFEA package couples the power and flexibility of the Sinda thermal analysis solver with Patran for a cost-effective, fully integrated thermal analysis tool designed for thermal engineers. In addition to Sinda’s Capabilities, Sinda enables you to:

  • Build models using a resistance-capacitance network approach.

  • Study the impact of material properties, boundary conditions, and other design parameter on thermal performance.

  • Use SindaRad for view factor radiation studies.

  • Integrate with other thermal analysis tools including NEVADA, Thermica, TSS, and TRASYS, along with support for thermal distortion and thermal stress analysis by passing temperatures to a structural model.
