MD Nastran Applications

MD Nastran combines best-in-class solver technologies – Nastran, Marc, Dytran, Adams, and LS-DYNA – into one, fully-integrated, multidiscipline simulation solution for the manufacturing enterprise. These highly-tuned, state-of-the-art solvers offer faster analysis times, support very large models, and enable more complex modelling, including:




  • Linear & Nonlinear Static
  • Vibration Characteristics
  • Linear & Nonlinear Dynamic s
  • Steady State & Transient Thermal
  • Linear & Nonlinear Buckling
  • Design Optimization & Sensitivities
  • Topology, topography and topometry Optimization
  • Rotordynamics
  • Aeroelasticity
  • Acoustics and structural-acoustics coupling
  • Parallel Capability (SMP & DMP)
  • Dynamic Design Analysis Method (DDAM)
  • Implicit Nonlinear with Contact
  • Explicit Nonlinear Crash and Impact
  • Direct Matrix Abstraction Programming (DMAP)
  • Advanced Connectors for Assemblies
  • Micromechanical failure analysis of composites
Comprehensive Support for Industry-Specific Simulations
Ideal for highly-engineered products such as automobiles, airplanes, heavy equipment, medical equipment, electronics, and other complex products, MD Nastran supports a number of industry-specific processes through its integrated disciplines. For example:

  • Noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) and acoustics for automotive design.
  • Strength and structural dynamics of an aircraft fuselage, wings and flaps, and landing gear.
  • Effects of temperature fluctuations from convection, conduction, advection, and radiation in consumer electronic devices.
