SRAC Donates 5 Seats of COSMOS/Works to Peru's Universidad de Piura.


Business Editors

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 29, 2001

Structural Research & Analysis Corp. (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
), a leading developer of design analysis software for engineering professionals, today announced the donation of 5 seats of COSMOS/Works(TM) to the Mechanical-Electrical Engineering department of Peru's Universidad de Piura.

Valued at $30,000, the contribution allows students to participate in real-life design situations as well as local technology events.

After encountering problems with the construction of models, Professor Chuman, from the design and mechanical technology laboratory, turned to COSMOS/Works because of its meshing capacities and associativity with SolidWorks(R). Professor Chuman and his mechanical colleagues anticipate using COSMOS/Works in courses such as Materials Strength, Mechanical Design I, and Mechanical Design II. Students will evaluate the behavior of various 3D models, while comparing the results with the program's current software.

COSMOS/Works is a powerful, easy to use design analysis and optimization software Free and Open Source software
  • ASCEND — mathematical modelling system
  • OpenOpt (license: BSD) — toolbox with connections to lots of solvers, for Python language programmers
  • COIN-OR SYMPHONY — integer programming, Common Public License
 fully embedded within SolidWorks. COSMOS/Works is ideal for engineers who need analysis but are not specialists in 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. . COSMOS/Works offers robust design analysis capabilities including linear stress, thermal, kinematics kinematics: see dynamics.
