REPEAT/ SolidWorks Teams With Gold Partners to Provide Academic Software Bundle.CONCORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 12, 1999-- SolidWorks, Mechanical Dynamics, and SRAC SRAC Southern Regional Aquaculture Center SRAC Short-Run Average Cost SRAC System Realignment and Categorization SRAC Scenic Roads Advisory Committee SRAC Structural Research and Analysis Corporation Deliver Powerful Engineering and Analysis Solutions to Universities Worldwide SolidWorks Corporation, a leading provider of affordable, easy-to-use 3D CAD software for the mainstream design-centric market, today announced a new academic software bundle. The package is available through December 31, 1999 for engineering departments at two and four year academic institutions that purchase SolidWorks(R) 99 software worldwide. The software bundle will include SolidWorks 99, COSMOS/Works from Structural Research and Analysis Corporation (SRAC), and Dynamic Designer/Motion from Mechanical Dynamics, Inc. (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :MDII MDII Machine Detected Interoffice Irregularity ). This software bundle was established to further the integration of design automation technology in the study of analysis and engineering. The SolidWorks academic software bundle is an integrated tool for teaching industrial design and engineering. With this bundled program, engineering departments can address numerous disciplines of design including analysis and manufacturing. COSMOS/Works enables students to measure and analyze 3D designs for structural integrity, deflection deflection /de·flec·tion/ (de-flek´shun) deviation or movement from a straight line or given course, such as from the baseline in electrocardiography. de·flec·tion n. 1. , thermal load, natural frequency or period of vibration, buckling buckling Mode of failure under compression of a structural component that is thin (see shell structure) or much longer than wide (e.g., post, column, leg bone). Leonhard Euler first worked out in 1757 the theory of why such members buckle. , and safety factors. Using Dynamic Designer/Motion, students can see and study their designs' behavior in realistic 3D dynamic motion, immediately correct and detect interferences between parts, and automatically output force data for structural analysis. Both of these SolidWorks' Gold Partner solutions benefit students by reducing guesswork about performance and ensuring the proper functionality of designs. "SolidWorks 99 combined with COSMOS/Works and Dynamic Designer/Motion provides engineering students and educators with some of the most powerful solid modeling and analysis tools available on the market," said Rosanne Kramer, manager of education marketing for SolidWorks. "Using these three software solutions, students will be able to simulate and solve engineering and design challenges the same way they would in the actual workplace. SolidWorks, Mechanical Dynamics, and SRAC are committed to ensuring that future industry leaders will be prepared to compete in the fast-paced engineering marketplace." Pricing & Availability Licenses of COSMOS/Works and Dynamic Designer/Motion will be shipped to colleges and universities worldwide that purchase SolidWorks 99 through December 31, 1999. Licenses of Dynamic Designer/Motion will be granted to SolidWorks educational customers at no additional cost. COSMOS/Works will be available for a free 30-day trial period at no charge. After 30 days, a one-year license may be purchased for a specially discounted price of $100.00 (USD USD In currencies, this is the abbreviation for the U.S. Dollar. Notes: The currency market, also known as the Foreign Exchange market, is the largest financial market in the world, with a daily average volume of over US $1 trillion. ).

About Mechanical Dynamics Mechanical Dynamics pioneered the field of mechanical system simulation, and has remained the market and technological leader in this industry since the company's founding in 1977. Thousands of engineering teams from nearly every manufacturing industry today use the company's ADAMS(R) and Dynamic Designer software to build and test virtual prototypes, realistically simulating on their computers the full-motion behavior of complex mechanical system designs. This helps manufacturers reduce their dependence on costly physical prototypes, improve design quality, and shorten product development cycles.

About Structural Research & Analysis Corporation SRAC was founded in 1982 to design, develop, and market design analysis software for the mechanical computer-aided engineering See CAE. Computer-aided engineering Any use of computer software to solve engineering problems. With the improvement of graphics displays, engineering workstations, and graphics standards, computer-aided engineering (CAE) has come to mean the computer market. Since its inception, SRAC innovations have had a significant impact on the evolution 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. . Over 2500 SolidWorks users recognize the company's COSMOS/Works software as the single, easy-to-use, accurate design analysis program for all their SolidWorks designs. Engineers worldwide daily experience the ease-of-use, speed, and robustness of COSMOS/Works in analyzing the static, dynamic, and thermal performance of their parts and assemblies. A full range of analysis options, including computational fluid dynamics Computational fluid dynamics The numerical approximation to the solution of mathematical models of fluid flow and heat transfer. Computational fluid dynamics is one of the tools (in addition to experimental and theoretical methods) available to solve and electromagnetics, are also available as part of the COSMOS/Works solution. SRAC markets its products worldwide and is headquartered at 12121 Wilshire Boulevard Wilshire Boulevard is one of the principal east-west arterial roads in Los Angeles, California, United States. It was named for H. Gaylord Wilshire (1861-1927), an Ohio native who made and lost fortunes in real estate, farming, and gold mining. , 7th Floor, Los Angeles Los Angeles (lôs ăn`jələs, lŏs, ăn`jəlēz'), city (1990 pop. 3,485,398), seat of Los Angeles co., S Calif.; inc. 1850. , CA 90025.
