ATA Engineering has over 25 years experience creating customer specific utilities including I-DEAS2 for NASA and the Assembly FEM manager for Hughes which later became part of I-deas.

ATA’s experience with commercial software began with CAE software translators, including I-DEAS to NASTRAN and I-DEAS to EXODUS. ATA was the creator of the test-analysis correlation software, CORDS, which led to the creation of Attune. Our thermal engineers have developed thermal and pressure data mapping interfaces as well as radiation transport analysis software.

ATA has additionally played a part in developing parts of the commercial software codes, I-deas and ABAQUS. The I-deas laminates model was created by ATA, and the ABAQUS-ZAERO interface was developed by ATA.

Today, ATA Engineering has an entire division dedicated to the development of software. A wide variety of test and analysis software tools are available to assist engineers in planning for modal tests, extracting mode shapes, correlating test and analysis data, understanding order related data from rotational equipment and manipulating test and analysis data in the MATLAB interface.
