RadCAD Description
RadCAD uses an ultra-fast Monte-Carlo ray-tracing algorithm that is accelerated by octa-trees to compute radiation exchange and view factors. C&R Technologies' innovations to the ray-tracing process resulted in a highly efficient thermal radiation software. RadCAD models diffuse or specular surfaces accurately, regardless of the density of nodes. The number of nodes is determined by the thermal solution, not by the accuracy requirements for the radiation. RadCAD uses user-defined databases for optical properties. Each surface coating defines absorptivity and transmissivity as well as reflectivity and specularity for both solar and infrared spectrum regimes. These properties can be defined in relation to incident angle, or even wavelength dependence.

Thermal Desktop
Thermal Desktop is a complete model creation tool. Objects such as finite element, lumped capacitance, and built-in finite differences can be combined in any way. Thermal-specific objects, such as insulation, heat loads and heaters, can be added to any model, from automotive components to manned satellites. Thermal Desktop allows full parameterization by using variables and arbitrarily complicated expressions instead of hardwired numbers. These variables, also known as symbols, enable models to be quickly manipulated by a few keystrokes. This makes it easy to update or maintain the model, perform sensitivity studies, and investigate what-if scenarios. This gives you access to SINDA/FLUINT’s optimization and reliability modules, as well as automatic model correlation.

Tidy3D
Tidy3D, Flexcompute's ultrafast electromagnetic solver (EM), is a fast and accurate electromagnetic solver. The solver uses the finite-difference-time-domain (FDTD). Tidy3D's simulations are orders of magnitude faster thanks to the highly optimized codesign of software and hard-ware. You can solve problems up to hundreds of wavelengths in size with the lightning-fast speed.

MSC Nastran
MSC Nastran is a multidisciplinary application for structural analysis that engineers use to perform static, dynamic and thermal analysis in the linear and nonlinear domains. It also includes automated structural optimization and award-winning embedded fatigue analysis technologies. All of this is enabled by high performance computing. MSC Nastran is used by engineers to ensure structural systems are strong, stiff, and durable. This helps to prevent structural failures (excess stress, resonance, buckling or other detrimental deformations) which could compromise structural function and safety. MSC Nastran can also be used to improve structural designs' economy and passenger comfort. Creating industry-leading product differentiations or optimizing existing designs can lead to industry advantages. Reduce downtime and costs by resolving structural problems that may arise during product service.
