> ESRD is committed to the challenge of improving the reliability ofinformation generated by numerical simulation while substantiallyreducing the time and effort required to perform computer-aided designand analysis tasks. ESRD's flagship FEA product, StressCheck, has manyinnovative and unique capabilities that support this goal.

In support of demands for standardization and automation, StressCheckoffers Toolkit FEA, a set of COM and Java API's that facilitatecommunication with other applications (e.g. Excel, Mathcad, MatLab,etc.) and provide a means to develop custom applications that featureyour own user interface. Toolkit FEA facilitates the creation ofdesktop or web-based design/analysis tools that enable the transitionfrom conventional closed-form solutions to reliable and accurateFEA-based solutions that offer much more flexibility.
