| GENOA is a truly revolutionary software package for
the engineer who designs and manufactures advanced aerospace and automotive
products. Dedicated to the high speed analysis of next generation materials, the GENOA software package employs leading edge technology from the fields of composites, structures and parallel computing sciences to deliver unequaled performance and analytical capability directly into the hands of today's engineers Equivalent Material Properties of metallic, polymer and ceramic composites: moduli, moisture, thermal, and heat conductivity. Degradation of material properties to environmental (moisture, thermal), manufacturing (defects, residual strains) Durability & damage tolerance: Evaluates the structural and material response including: life cycle, degradation of material properties due to initiation, location of failure, and growth of damage under In-service operations and environments (static, dynamic, thermal, creep, impact, and low/high/random frequency cyclic fatigue). Identifies the percent contribution of various possible composite failure modes. Predicts the inspection interval, and incipient damage locations, margin of safety predictions Part manufacturability: minimum defect occurrences (i.e. voids, buckling, wrinkling) and attainable best fit to a shape, aeroelastic fiber angle orientation, fiber jamming, and fiber volume fraction, precision manufacturing, smart materials and processes, and smart structures Virtual testing tool: identifies type of testing, and duplicates the experimental testing process (i.e. photoelasticity, far field strains, material fracture parameters, strain gage, margin of safety) Probabilistic failure analysis: identification and sensitivity of progressive damage parameters, uncertainty evaluation of material strength to material parameters, determines sensitivities of failure modes to design parameters to facilitate targeting design parameter changes that will be most effective in reducing probability of a given failure mode from occurring, and probability of failure Parallel processing: Parallel processing with dynamic load balancing system with a real timeparallelization algorithm.
