MSC.Software (Santa Ana, CA) has acquired pioneerSolutions, Inc. (Northville, MI). Combined with its SimEnterprise open service-oriented architecture (SOA), MSC.Software will now deliver a platform for multidiscipline simulation including fluids, structures, thermal, acoustics, motion, and mechatronics.
Through its open CFD approach, MSC.Software can deliver a common user environment that covers fluids applications such as fluid flow, heat transfer, aerodynamics, climate control, chemical mixing, and fluid structures interaction (FSI).
“FluidConnection, our innovative OpenCFD product, fits perfectly into MSC.Software’s SimEnterprise strategy,” said Bruce Webster, founder and CEO of pioneerSolutions. “This combination will not only extend SimEnterprise to be CFD compliant, but will do so in ways that MSC.Software’s customers will have unprecedented ease of use, reuse, flexibility and choice.”
Bill Weyand, CEO for MSC.Software, explained, “Today there are over 40 CFD solver tools in the market, creating separate models for CFD … This is an outdated and costly approach.”
“Customers want to be able to work with CFD in a single, multidiscipline environment, with a common and consistent work environment across all the disciplines, enabling them to drive innovative products to market faster, ” added Weyand.
