Enhancing Learning Through Leading Simulation Technologies

MSC software products can be used effectively in technical education to help complement and reinforce engineering principles and make learning more relevant and interesting. The Academic Software Bundle from MSC Software is specially designed such that similar products are bundled together to help maximize the simulation capability for students.

Software Bundles

Software Bundles

All three university software bundles are network-licensed through a set of “User Packs.” These are specifically created to cater to the needs of Universities based on the number of people, departments, and classes for which they are used. Academic Structures Bundle helps Evaluate and validate the performance of mechanical parts and products from a structural and acoustic view through this simulation software bundle. This includes simulation results of displacement, strain, stress, frequency, temperatures, gradients, flow paths, noise levels etc.

Engineers and professors can leverage this bundle to carry out static and dynamic FEA, linear and nonlinear FEA, in the time domain or the frequency domain, and analyse involving contacts and impacts, vibrations, and fluid-structure interactions. These can be integrated with several other MSC products such as MSC Nastran, Dytran, MSC Apex, Marc, Patran etc.

Academic Structures Bundle is mainly used by professors, researchers and students who perform motion and system level simulation. These are not only cost effective, but they are easy to use too. Academic licenses offer several of the same features as that of commercial licenses, without any licensing related challenges.

Academic Motion & System Bundle

Academic Motion & System Bundle

The Academic Motion & System Bundle focuses extensively on kinematics, rigid and & flexible multibody dynamics, and schematic (block-diagram) simulations. This includes simulation of rotating & translating linkages, gear sets, cams, cables, belts & pulleys, actuators in machinery, latches & closures, mechatronic devices, robots, ground vehicles, aircraft landing gear & flaps, etc.

This flexible, intuitive and cost-effective software bundle allows engineers and professionals to create graphical representations of systems using block diagrams, primitive geometries, or sophisticated geometries imported from CAD. It enables manual testing as well as automated design sensitivity & optimization.

It also offers a plethora of multi-body motion and mechanical system simulations, including hydraulics & controls. This software bundle uses a geometric modeling approach or a schematic, block-diagram modeling approach based on Adams and Easy5.

FEA Bundle

Designed for engineering students and professors, this simplistic bundle focuses on FEA to help evaluate the thermal, and crash (impact)-related characteristics of mechanical components. These can be integrated with several other MSC products such as MSC Nastran, Dytran, MSC Apex, Marc, Patran etc.
