Altair Engineering, Inc., announced today that the UK based product development consultancy, Vectayn, has standardised much of its finite element analysis (FEA) activities on the HyperWorks suite of virtual simulation tools. Vectayn will use HyperWorks and especially HyperMesh, the advanced FEA meshing solution of the software suite, as the default model creation tool for all new automotive, aerospace, and military projects. As long time users of HyperWorks, this decision is driven by the need to improve design development productivity and increase flexibility whilst minimising software costs.
