SciArt Software, Inc., a University of Wisconsin-Madison spinoff, today announced it raised $530,000 in seed funding from the Idea Fund of La Crosse. The Madison-based company’s software provides a new analysis and optimization tool to generate options for design engineers who are looking to explore the design space while reducing weight and part count. SciArt Software sells to companies who are under pressure to lower weight of their products while meeting strength, stiffness and part fatigue requirements: these include companies in the Aerospace, Automotive, Defense, Handheld Tools and Performance Vehicle industries. Reducing the weight of the average car by 100 pounds improves automobile MPG by about 1%, and new, lighter cargo carriers saved United Airlines $1.4M annually. The idea for Pareto, SciArt Software’s proprietary analysis and optimization engine, emerged from over 10 years of consulting and research, during which Chief Science Officer, Professor Krishnan Suresh encountered several deficiencies with current
