INNOVATION
A superior multipurpose resource for
the design and analysis of composite structures
|
Space Shuttle Turbine Blade
|
ACCOMPLISHMENTS
- Memory limitations were removed
from the technology for composite mechanics
- System optimization by parallel
distribution of work load achieved minimum computer solution time
- Increased the computer
program processing speed and facilitated data transfer
- Concurrent probabilistic simulation
of large scale material and structures analysis predicted life uncertainties
- Made possible visualization
of composite structures
- Placed performance and analytical
capabilities directly into the hands of the engineer
|
COMMERCIALIZATION
- As one of the initial contracts
for this technology, it served as a major stepping-stone that resulted
in a significant commercial product
- Commercialized under the trade
name GENOA with steadily increased revenue
- Provided industrial training
