) (MSC (1) (MSC.Software Corporation, Santa Ana, CA, www.mscsoftware.com) Founded in 1963 by Richard H. MacNeal and Robert G. Schwendler, MSC is the world's largest provider of mechanical computer aided engineering (MCAE) strategies, simulation software and services. ) Thursday announced that it has shipped its new product, MSC/SuperModel, to its first Asia-Pacific client, the Beijing Institute of Astronautical Systems Engineering, one of 10 major institutions that form the China Aerospace Corp.

The first of MSC's aerospace-specific software solutions, MSC/SuperModel is a system that enhances engineering productivity by automating much of the structural analysis associated with airframe, launch vehicle, satellite and aircraft engines.

China Aerospace has been a longtime user of MSC's engineering software for its space projects. MSC/NASTRAN, MSC/PATRAN, MSC/MVISION, MSC/DYTRAN and MSC/ARIES have been used extensively for commercial satellite design and production, including several joint projects with U.S. aerospace companies.

The Beijing Institute has purchased the system for use in the design and development of future commercial launch vehicles This is a list of space launch vehicles sorted by country/operator in alphabetical order, commercial vehicles are listed under their corresponding country.

. ``MSC/ SuperModel will effectively shorten the physical distances and barriers in sharing engineering information among our institutions,'' stated Zhang Qing Zhang Qing is the name of two Water Margin characters:

 Wei, vice president of the Institute.

``MSC/SuperModel allows integration of multiple parts of the launch vehicle that are made by different parts of China Aerospace into one assembly. This lets each group focus on its expertise areas, greatly enhancing the design efficiency of the launch vehicles. The MSC/SuperModel file system will help organize and manage vast numbers of engineering files across the organization.''

``One major benefit that the Beijing Institute will see is the ability of the system to be customized to integrate and manage various engineering analysis tools. This includes in-house specialty software programs from different institutions, providing an easy-to-use and yet maximum flexible environment to engineers,'' stated Junyi Li, country manager of MSC's China office.

``We will see a strong demand for this CAE (1) (Computer-Aided Engineering) Software that analyzes designs which have been created in the computer or that have been created elsewhere and entered into the computer.  process management system in Asia-Pacific,'' predicted Mars Tateishi, vice president of the MSC's Asia-Pacific operations.

MacNeal-Schwendler is the world's leading supplier of mechanical computer-aided engineering (MCAE MCAE Mechanical Computer-Aided Engineering (mechanical engineering, design or analysis)

) software and services. MSC's solutions are provided to the aerospace, automotive and general manufacturing industries, with aerospace being MSC's largest market segment.

MSC's aerospace products are used to simulate the structural performance of airframes, launch vehicles, satellites and engines. This simulation improves structural performance, reduces manufacturing costs and decreases time to market. MSC was founded in 1963, with origins in the aerospace industry.

In addition to MSC/SuperModel, MSC develops additional aerospace solutions, including MSC/NASTRAN, used for structural stress, vibration, thermal and aeroelastic analysis and optimization; MSC/PATRAN, which provides a software foundation for integrating commercial and in-house MCAE software applications; and MSC/MVISION, used to manage material data and structural loads.

MSC has offices throughout North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific. For more information about MSC's aerospace business, visit the MSC Web site: www.macsch.com/aerospace . -0-
