Dassault Systemes Introduces ABAQUS Student Edition Version 6.6.Simulation Software Simulation software is based on the process of imitating a real phenomenon with a set of mathematical formulas. It is, essentially, a program that allows the user to observe an operation through simulation without actually running the program. Provides Real-World Engineering Experience to Students and Engineering Professionals PARIS Paris, in Greek mythology Paris or Alexander, in Greek mythology, son of Priam and Hecuba and brother of Hector. Because it was prophesied that he would cause the destruction of Troy, Paris was abandoned on Mt. & PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- Dassault Systemes Dassault Systemes (Dassault Systèmes S.A.) (Pronounced - Dasoh) (NASDAQ: DASTY; Euronext: 13065) is a leading company specializing in 3D and PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) software. (DS) (Nasdaq: DASTY; Euronext Paris: #13065, DSY DSY Drum Storage Yard .PA), a world leader in 3D and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM (Product Life cycle Management) A comprehensive information system that coordinates all aspects of a product from initial concept to its eventual retirement. Sometimes called the "digital backbone" of a product, it includes the requirements phase, analysis and design ) solutions, announces the availability of ABAQUS Student Edition Version 6.6. The new software offers engineering students many of the latest simulation capabilities for vibration analysis, material failure characterization, tire modeling, and visualization that were made available earlier this year in the commercial version of ABAQUS Version 6.6 software. "ABAQUS Student Edition is affordable, easily deployable, and scalable simulation software that educators can rely on to enrich their coursework in the theory and real-world application of 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. ," says Dr. Abdel-salam Niazy, P.E., who uses ABAQUS Student Edition software as part of his curriculum at the University of Southern California The U.S. News & World Report ranked USC 27th among all universities in the United States in its 2008 ranking of "America's Best Colleges", also designating it as one of the "most selective universities" for admitting 8,634 of the almost 34,000 who applied for freshman admission . "Feedback from my students about the software has been very positive." ABAQUS Student Edition Version 6.6 complements ABAQUS Research Edition and ABAQUS Teaching Edition, which are used extensively in academic institutions worldwide to train engineers in the use of 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. to solve real-world engineering problems. "The open and scalable ABAQUS environment presents an alternative to fragmented, multivendor approaches to simulation by offering a more unified FEA methodology," says Ken Short, vice president of marketing at ABAQUS, Inc. "ABAQUS Student Edition Version 6.6 allows students to prepare themselves for this innovative approach, which involves the use of a single model to solve multiple performance attributes such as nonlinear dynamics, vibration, acoustics, durability, and fluid-structure interaction." ABAQUS software is well established at the university undergraduate, graduate, and research level at more than 1,000 sites worldwide. ABAQUS Student Edition is an ideal educational companion tool for universities using ABAQUS Research or Teaching licenses. It is also a valuable educational tool for industry professionals. The software leverages the capabilities of ABAQUS/CAE, ABAQUS/Standard, and ABAQUS/Explicit to solve FEA problems of limited size (1,000 nodes) and is available for both the Windows XP and Windows 2000 Platforms. The software can be purchased online at www.abaqus.com/student. About SIMULIA In 2005, Dassault Systemes acquired ABAQUS, Inc. and announced SIMULIA, the brand that encompasses all DS simulation solutions, including ABAQUS and CATIA A family of 2D and 3D CAD programs from IBM. CATIA was one of the first CAD programs to provide 3D solid modeling. The program was developed by Dassault Systems, a French aerospace company. analysis applications. SIMULIA provides a scalable portfolio of simulation solutions, as well as an open platform to support integration of multidisciplinary analysis with its industry-leading partners. By building on established technology, respected quality, and superior customer service, SIMULIA makes realistic simulation an integral business practice that enables engineers and scientists to improve product performance, eliminate physical prototypes, and drive innovation. Headquartered in Providence, RI, USA, with R&D centers in Providence and in Suresnes, France, the SIMULIA brand provides sales, services, and support through a global network of regional ABAQUS offices and distributors.
