nCode Is Tough Enough For Steel Company |
|
|
ArcelorMittal , the world’s largest steel company, on the European Commission Research Fund for Coal and Steel Project (RFCS "SpeedFat" Project), has chosen nCode as a partner in their recent Research Project. The primary objective for ArcelorMittal in this project was to develop methods for determining how test signals can be reduced in size for use on test rigs or in computer based fatigue analysis.

A new home and force for ESTEQ and MSC-Africa
15 October 2007: ESTEQ PLM and MSC-Africa have combined forces under the banner of the ESTEQ Group to enable us to serve our customers in the Engineering product development and manufacturing markets better. The forming of the new Group was combined with a physical relocation of the whole Group to a new state-of-the-art home in Tijgervallei Office Park, Silver Lakes Road, Pretoria.
The new groups’ focus and business strategy are driven by innovative products, excellent customer service, training and on-going commitment to address the needs of our customers better and more efficiently!
MSC-Africa, the leading provider of Simulation and Testing Solutions in South Africa, will now trade as ESTEQ Engineering. Both ESTEQ Engineering and ESTEQ PLM will exist as divisions of the ESTEQ Group and will work together to serve the South African Product Development and Manufacturing Industry.
You can contact us on 086 123 7837 or fax (012) 809-3396.

Is Car-Testing Accurate? |
|
|
Both lab and on-road physics show undeniable variabilities.
Simulating a car crash with a computer is one of the most demanding tasks. The size and cost of computer models for car-crash analysis is steadily growing. Is it really possible to build safer cars by building larger and more sophisticated computer models? Are there any intrinsic limitations to crashworthiness of automobiles, dictated by the physics involved, which make it impossible to improve performance beyond today’s already high standards?

Ontonix Launch Version 3.0 |
|
|
Version 3.0 of our flagship product is the fruit of four years of intense development and research. Because of its ability to process time-dependent data, OntoSpace version 3.0 offers all the necessary ingredients in order to set new standards in Business Intelligence and Corporate Performance Management(BI-CPM).
The new version is characterized by a completely renovated Graphical User Interface and improved memory management. A new proprietary algorithm, which ranks variables in an innovative and robust fashion, has also been incorporated.

Ontonix Helps To Predict Heart Failure |
|
|
Studies on the physiology of the cardiovascular system suggested that the generation of the heart rate (HR) signal is governed by nonlinear dynamics. Linear and nonlinear indices of heart rate variability (HRV) have been shown to predict outcomes in heart failure (HF). The aim was to predict clinical responders at 1 year. HR footprint data both at baseline and one year follow up were retrieved and processed with OntoSpace (a product of Ontonix). Now extensive data on HRV can be retrieved through algorithms integrated in implantable devices.

"Engineering, medicine, business, architecture and painting are concerned not with the necessary but with the contingent - not with how things are but with how they might be - in short, with design.”
Herbert Simon quotes (American mathematical social scientist 1916-2001)
“Scientists investigate that which already is; Engineers create that which has never been.”
Albert Einstein
“Scientists dream about doing great things. Engineers do them.”
James A. Michener quotes (U.S. Novelist and short-story writer, 1907?-1997)
“The engineer has been, and is, a maker of history”
James Kip Finch quotes
“Strive for perfection in everything you do. Take the best that exists and make it better. When it does not exist, design it.”
Sir Henry Royce quotes (Sir (Fredrick) Henry Royce British Engineer, 1863-1933)
“Software is a great combination between artistry and engineering. When you finally get done and appreciate what you have done it is like a part of yourself that you have put together.”
Bill Gates quotes (American Entrepreneur and Founder of Microsoft CO.,b.1955)
A good scientist is a person with original ideas. A good engineer is a person who makes a design that works with as few original ideas as possible. There are no prima donnas in engineering.”
Freeman Dyson quotes (English Physicist, b.1923)
"Normal people ... believe that if it ain`t broke, don`t fix it. Engineers believe that if it ain`t broke, it doesn`t have enough features yet.”
Scott Adams quotes (American Cartoonist, b.1957)
“Engineers like to solve problems. If there are no problems handily available, they will create their own problems.”
Scott Adams quotes (American Cartoonist, b.1957)
