ALGOR Internationalizes FEA Software.PITTSBURGH -- ALGOR, Inc., a leading provider of design, analysis and simulation software, announced an early June release of the first-ever, multilingual, full-featured finite element analysis Finite element analysis (FEA) is a computer simulation technique used in engineering analysis. It uses a numerical technique called the finite element method (FEM). There are many finite element software packages, both free and proprietary. (FEA (Finite Element Analysis) A mathematical technique for analyzing stress, which breaks down a physical structure into substructures called "finite elements." The finite elements and their interrelationships are converted into equation form and solved mathematically. ) software that works associatively with most CAD solid modelers. This new internationalized version allows engineers to run the software in any one of six languages, including Chinese (simplified), English, French, German, Italian and Spanish. "Feature-rich and easy-to-use FEA software is now available in a single internationalized package," said ALGOR Product Manager Bob Williams. "Working in a native language reduces the learning curve and increases the efficiency and productivity of engineers, resulting in savings of time and money during the design process." "This release reflects our commitment to the international community and is a response to the growing demand for a convenient means of operating the software in any one of the languages most familiar to our engineering clients," said ALGOR Vice President of Operations Teresa Anania. "In addition, we include all languages in one program with no additional charge to the customer, a significant value-added improvement to our family of products." "As a native Chinese speaker, I think it is a great benefit to be able to work in my native language," said Kou Xiaodong, Technical Manager of Beijing EnginTech Engineering, Inc. of Beijing, China. "I am able to work faster and with more confidence using the internationalized version of ALGOR software. Plus, I can also easily change my language settings and show analysis results to my colleagues or customers in their preferred language." ALGOR worked with language localization experts at Echo International to ensure that its multilingual support accounted for such considerations as dialect, culture, currency, writing style, numbering, weights and measures weights and measures, units and standards for expressing the amount of some quantity, such as length, capacity, or weight; the science of measurement standards and methods is known as metrology. , timing, geography, dating and more. "ALGOR software was a pleasure to work with and provides engineers working in numerous languages with a seamless, well-integrated and fully localized language platform," said Echo International CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. Les Dutka. "ALGOR's localization process promises to be a fruitful one for the company and its customers."
