February 15, 2011 — NEi Software debuts its free finite element analysis (FEA) mobile application, NEi Stratus, experimenting with how and when finite element analysis solutions can be delivered to engineers. With this current application, finite element analysts can explore how mobile technology can be used to perform basic analysis, viewing results on their Apple iPhone and iPad anywhere and anytime.

The company sees the potential of combining cloud technology with the power of NEi Nastran solvers and believes this initial exploration into the combination will allow for more complex analysis as the technology matures.
 
NEi Stratus will be available by the beginning of the second fiscal quarter and will be initially offered at no charge. Those interested in viewing demos of this free mobile FEA application can visit http://www.nenastran.com/mobile.

NEi Software recognized two rapidly advancing technologies that have great potential within the computer-aided engineering (CAE) industry: mobile applications and cloud computing. "NEi Stratus leverages these technologies to give engineers on-demand Nastran-based analysis," said Mitch Muncy, manager of presales and technical support for NEi Software.

NEi Software is a CAE supplier offering Nastran FEA, engineering simulation, and virtual testing software. Learn more at http://www.nenastran.com
