MADYMO by TASS-safe added to Altair’s HyperWorks Enabled Community

“We, at TASS-safe, are thrilled about our new partnership with Altair because it increases the value customers receive from their existing license purchases. We see this strategic and commercial partnership as a significant advantage for our mutual customers, especially now in these challenging times,“ said Frank Litjens, director sales & marketing, TASS-safe. “Through this partnership, our customers can use all products in the MADYMO software suite via Altair’s HyperWorks Units licensing system. In particular our FE-Harmonization products are priced very attractively under the Altair licensing system. These FE-Harmonization products enable the use of MADYMO occupant safety technologies in conjunction with RADIOSS to predict the performance of an entire vehicle (including occupants) during a virtual crash simulation. Apart from the technical and commercial advantages, this partnership also further strengthens TASS’s market position and provides new opportunities for future growth.”

The addition by Altair of third-party applications such as MADYMO provides customers with more software options to diversify and increase their return on investment in HyperWorks Units, and provides TASS-safe with the opportunity to gain added exposure and marketshare.

MADYMO is the worldwide standard software for occupant safety analyses and design optimization. With MADYMO an occupant safety system can be designed, thoroughly analyzed, and efficiently optimized early in its development process. Users thereby reduce the need for prototype testing and minimize the risk of design changes late in the development process. The use of MADYMO can therefore lead to significant reductions in costs and time-to-market. The MADYMO suite is comprised of three main components: the MADYMO Multi-Functional Solver, MADYMO Dummy Models and MADYMO WorkSpace (pre- and post-processing toolset).

HyperWorks is a suite of enterprise analytic applications that includes statistical, database, visualization and simulation software to help companies make better business decisions. Its patented HyperWorks Units licensing technology allows users to transparently share software licenses globally across a broad suite of applications. Customers can operate all applications under their existing HyperWorks licenses, increasing flexibility and the value of their investment.

“TASS-safe and Altair share many clients around the world,” says James R. Scapa, Altair chairman and CEO. “The addition of the MADYMO suite to the HyperWorks Enabled Community extends Altair’s commitment and leadership position in the crash and safety industry. The HyperWorks platform, including MADYMO, RADIOSS and many other Altair and partner solutions, offers tremendous value to our customers.”
