RecurDyn
RecurDyn is an interdisciplinary computer-aided engineering software package whose primary function is the simulation of Multi-Body Dynamics. It simulates both rigid and flexible body dynamics by combining traditional rigid multibody dynamics with cutting-edge finite element technology for modeling flexible bodies, known as Multi Flexible Body Dynamics. RecurDyn is designed to analyze the dynamic behavior of mechanical systems in motion, including systems with joints, constraints, contact, flexible components, forces, and complex interactions between parts. Its solver technology handles the differential algebraic equations that describe multibody systems, combining equations of motion with algebraic equations for joint constraints. It provides a robust MBD-specialized modeling environment, fast solvers, extensive post-processing, animation, plotting, and tools for evaluating the motion, loads, stresses, deformation, and performance of mechanical assemblies.

EasyCFD
EasyCFD is a desktop computational fluid dynamics (CFD) application that brings geometry preparation, mesh generation, simulation and post-processing into one graphical environment. It supports two-dimensional and axisymmetric fluid flow and heat transfer, with structured and unstructured meshes and steady or transient calculations.
Users can model laminar and turbulent flow, conduction and conjugate heat transfer, scalar transport, multicomponent flow, and isotropic or anisotropic porous media. Turbulence options include Standard, RNG and Realizable k-ε, SST k-ω, Spalart–Allmaras and Transition k–kL–ω. Results can be examined using contours, vectors, streamlines, XY plots and statistics.
EasyCFD is primarily intended for CFD education and learning, and can also support research and initial engineering analysis. The website provides worked examples, video tutorials, a user manual and validation material. A fully functional 20-day trial is available.
