Coustyx by ANSOL now Part of Altair’s HyperWorks Enabled Community

Altair (www.altair.com) announced the addition to its HyperWorks Enabled Community (HWEC) of Coustyx from Advanced Numerical Solutions, LLC (ANSOL), a developer of solutions for design and analysis of mechanical systems. HyperWorks users can now download the latest version of Coustyx from the HWEC website at www.hyperworkscommunity.com and use Coustyx at no incremental cost through their existing HyperWorks software license system. This brings the total number of applications available under the HyperWorks platform to 54 including 26 third-party software applications such as Coustyx.

Coustyx is a next-generation analysis software that integrates Advanced Boundary Element formulations with Fast Multipole Method to yield fast, accurate solutions to very large problems in acoustics, across a wide frequency range. Coustyx is developed with support from the National Science Foundation.

“ANSOL looks forward to accelerating the adoption of Coustyx into the global Altair customer base through the HyperWorks Enabled Community,” said Rajendra Gunda, Project Scientist for ANSOL. “Coustyx is a complimentary solution to the HyperWorks suite which allows customers to create better products.”

To date, over 265 companies worldwide have joined the HyperWorks Enabled Community, maximizing their current investment in HyperWorks licenses by giving their engineers and designers flexible access to a growing pool of leading technology solutions.

HyperWorks is a suite of enterprise analytic applications that includes statistical, database, visualization and simulation software to help companies make better business decisions. Its patented HyperWorks Units licensing technology allows users to transparently share software licenses globally across a broad suite of applications.

“Altair is excited about this new partnership with ANSOL, it provides our customers with an easy to use, robust and cost effective solution for simulating acoustic phenomena”, said Michael Humphrey, Vice President of Altair’s Global Partner Programs. “With the addition of Coustyx into the HWEC, Altair is extending our portfolio of solutions for engineers concerned with minimizing the Noise, Vibration and Harshness of their products.”
