Use of NASTRAN as a teaching aidRecent experiences with incorporating NASTRAN as a teaching tool in undergraduate courses was found pedagogically sound. Students with no previous computerized structures background are able to readily grasp the program's logic and begin solving realistic problems rapidly. The educational benefit is significantly enhanced by NASTRAN's plotting feature. However, the cost of operating the level 12 version makes the program difficult to justify.
