NX is a next-generation digital product development system that helps companies transform the product lifecycle. With the industry's broadest suite of integrated, fully associative CAD/CAM/CAE applications, NX touches the full range of development processes in product design, manufacturing and simulation.
To meet the increasing demands for global teams to collaborate on projects, NX enables products to be developed from initial concept layout to manufacturing. This includes the generation of detailed 3-D component and assemblies, performance analysis and tool path preparation within a single managed backbone. The managed development environment enables collaboration within the extended enterprise ensuring that the right data is delivered to the right people at the right time.
Altair HyperMesh is a high-performance finite element pre- and post-processor for major finite element solvers, allowing engineers to analyze design conditions in a highly interactive and visual environment. HyperMesh’s user-interface is easy to learn and supports the direct use of CAD geometry and existing finite element models, providing robust interoperability and efficiency. Advanced automation tools within HyperMesh allow users to optimize meshes from a set of quality criteria, change existing meshes through morphing and generate mid-surfaces from models of varying thickness.
Nastran is a powerful, general purpose finite element analysis tool with an integrated graphical user interface and model Editor which is used to analyze linear and nonlinear stress, dynamics, and heat transfer characteristics of structures and mechanical components.
