Noran Engineering, Inc. (Westminster, CA) has announced that itsNEiNastran V9.0 will available with token-based pricing which, the companysays, will allow for additional technology at a fraction of the cost.This functionality will allow Noran Engineering to apply token-basedsolutions to its NEiNastran and NEiWorks suite of products. (NEiWorksis an embedded finite element-modeling tool for SolidWorks. Click herefor more on NEiWorks.)
Previously, the NEiNastran solver was priced by the seat only, based onthe need for a linear solution or a nonlinear solution. What thetoken-based approach means is that the company’s SolidWorks users canhavethe capability of distinguishing their NEiWorks meshing and NeiNastransolving routines, thereby efficiently managing and maximizing the usageof the actual number of licenses acquired.
