MSC Software gives government organizations a more realistic, rigorous, and reliable way to evaluate engineering designs. Our net-centric simulation solutions out-perform real-world testing, enabling agencies to streamline missions, reduce risk, and cut costs. MSC Software simulates engineering designs as physics-based digital models, verifies their performance within a virtual test environment, and generates detailed data. Using MSC Software, agencies can conduct tests continuously throughout a program ’s lifecycle and document a broader base of test data. With net-centric simulation as a program standard, agencies can make better decisions, fulfill all their requirements, consistently deliver on schedule, and ensure mission success.
More Realistic
MSC Software simulates engineering designs as physics-based digital models, verifies their performance within a virtual test environment, and documents detailed data. Digital (rather than physical) prototyping on a scalable, enterprise-wide platform allows agencies to:
- Integrate same-time analysis across multiple disciplines
- Understand intricate interactions between components
- Assess performance under precisely defined conditions
More Rigorous
With net-centric simulation and MSC Software, agencies can conduct tests continuously throughout the project lifecycle and document a broader base of test data. Because programs and projects aren`t limited by the information constraints (and expense) of live testing, they can:
- Perform more analyses in less time
- Consider many different options and scenarios
- Repeat tests and confirm results
- Surface issues and resolve them earlier
More Reliable
U.S. government agencies (such as NASA and the Navy) already use MSC Software products as individual COTS solutions. More are beginning to consider net-centric simulation at the enterprise level. With net-centric simulation as a standard for program best practices, U.S. government agencies can:
- Ensure consistency and integrity within and across projects
- Reuse and redeploy simulation resources and applications
- Ensure compliance with requirements, deadlines, and budgets
- Support better decision making at each project stage
- Avoid costly revisions and program failures due to undetected issues
Applications
NASA: full spacecraft modeling, structure, engine, flight controls, solar panels, stores/devices, attitude dynamics, structure and mechanisms, ground support
Navy: full ship and aircraft modeling, structure and mechanisms, seaworthiness (attitude dynamics), shock test
Marine Corp: full vehicle modeling, chassis, engine, weapons pointing, driveline, armor effectiveness
Air Force: full aircraft modeling, structure, engine, flight controls, landing gears, stores/devices
Army: full vehicle modeling, chassis, engine, weapons pointing, driveline, armor effectiveness
Benefits
- Make better decisions
- Consider more options
- Anticipate non-intuitive results
- Avoid costly late revisions
- Prevent major problems and failures
- Maximize program performance
- Ensure on-time delivery at every milestone
