Automotive Engineering SoftwareFord Motor Company has made particular use of Computer Program (NASTRAN) NASA Structural Analysis Program which electronically analyzes a computerized design and predicts its reaction to many different conditions of stress and strain. Ford used NASTRAN to analyze the combined torsional bending and axial loading conditions of a new automobile. As a result of the analytical solutions, fewer prototypes had to be built and tested with instant reduction of development time and cost.
