                                                          numerous  systems.    These  include
                                                          the analysis, component, custom and

                                                          system  consists  of  several  tools  for
                                                          solving different classes of problems
                                                          such as static and transient structural
                                                          analyses,   buckling   and   modal
                                                          analyses,  steady-state  and  transient
                                                          thermal analyses, fluid flow analysis.
                                                          These  analytical  tools  are  shown  in
