CAE PARTNER GmbH An Enterprise of the MSC Group
CAE PARTNER GmbH An Enterprise of the MSC Group Mai 1989 : Company founded Selling of Finite-Element- Software including engineering services Jan. 1991 : Market Leader in Germany with FEA on PC Jan. 1993 : 19 subdealer of CAE Partner in Europe Nov. 1994 : Subsidary of MacNeal-Schwendler for marketing and distributing MSC/NASTRAN for Windows in Europe and other territories
CAE PARTNER GmbH Company targets Marketing of MSC/NASTRAN for Windows as exclusive sales channel in Europe Coordination and cooperation with Reseller in Europe Cooperation with MSC offices Support and training center for MSC/NASTRAN for Windows Usage of synergy effects with other Windows applications Penetration of the "low end" market
CAE PARTER GmbH Software-Products MSC/NASTRAN for Windows FEA-System for static, dynamic, heat transfer, nonlinear and optimization ROBOT V6 FE-based analysis and design of 3D steel and reinforced concrete structures CAOSS 2D/3D shape/size/topology optimization based on biological control strategies as add on modul to be coupled with a FEA-program Working Model for Windows & Macintosh 2D kinematic and dynamic simulations of multi body systems
C A O S S 2D/3D non parametric shape optimization Shape optimization based on biological control strategies FE models need not to be parametric, any FE model can be optimized later Every FE-node can move Few iterations, independent of model size and design variables Optimizing of multiple load cases at the same time and contact planes Interfaces to ANSYS, COSMOS, NASTRAN (in preparation) Runs on PC and Workstation
ROBOT V6 FE-Analysis program for steel and concrete structures Dialog/Output in multiple language 2D/3D frame structures Plate/Shell structures Cable & Membran structures Nonlinear buckling (stability) Automatic generation of moving loads automatic climatic load generation calculation of cross sections including torsion, plastic moments etc. Steel dimensioning and reinforced concrete Intern.
