Delay in finding problems or errors in a product may be the most challenging and time consuming task during product development lifecycle. NX Nastran help companies to point out problems even before the prototype of the product is developed saving physical testing and further modification into the product.
Nastran was basically a project developed by NASA. It is an industry standard for many firms for over 40 years and present. It is used in analysis of stress, vibration, structure failure, heat transfer, acoustics, and aero elasticity analysis. Widely used in aerospace, automotive, electronic, heavy machinery, medical device and other industries, Nastran ensures safe, optimized and reliable design with comparatively shorter design cycles.
The Nastran Software provides all advance solutions to all structural analysis problems for all linear and nonlinear analysis, dynamic response, rotor dynamics, aeroelasticity and optimization. The important feature set can be discussed as:
Linear Analysis: This features solves the static problems faced by the engineers. Durability of a structure under a prescribed load or change in load over a time are some of its concerns.
Non-Linear Analysis: Non-Linear Analysis is carried by this software as simple as plastic catch and as complex as post-buckling analysis.
Rotor Dynamics: Rotating systems such as shafts and turbines are analyzed in rotor dynamics understanding rotation-induced gyroscopic and centrifugal forces and also help determine dynamic stability.
Dynamic Analysis: Dynamic Analysis concerns about effect of vibration on performance of consumer products and other hi tech consumer devices.
Aero-elastic Analysis: Structural models can be analyzed in the presence of an air stream. Analysis of structures such as helicopters, missiles, suspension bridges, tall chimneys, power lines and so on.
This tool enables the engineers to know how to perform structural analysis for linear and non-linear analysis, dynamic response, rotator dynamics, optimization and aero elasticity. The highly specialized tool also deals with issues concerning noise, vibration and harness problem analysis in specifically automotive products.
Composites Analysis which is used in aerospace industry dealing with the responses of the product with respect to forces, pressure, accelerations, temperatures, contact between components, fiber delamination can also be studied and analyzed under the NX Nastran Software from CADD CENTRE.
Along with aerospace design issues, Nastran also deals with
complex coupled-physics problems occurring in electronics industry.
NX Nastran is a premium, Computer Aided Engineering tool that a major number of manufacturers worldwide rely on for their critical engineering product development.
