ALGOR Announces Matereality Interface
PITTSBURGH,
Pennsylvania, March 23, 2007 - ALGOR, Inc., a leading provider of design,
analysis and simulation software, announced that it has in cooperation with
Matereality, L.L.C. of Ithaca, NY, a provider of industrial-strength IT
infrastructure for secure material information storage and exchange,
developed an interface that seamlessly connects Matereality to ALGOR
software. 'Matereality for ALGOR' allows users to mine databases for
ALGOR-relevant data with Matereality's MiRo wizard and then seamlessly
export the selected data for their finite element analysis (FEA) and
simulation needs.

The new 'Matereality for ALGOR' interface allows users to mine material
property databases for ALGOR-relevant data with Matereality's MiRo wizard
and then seamlessly export the selected data for their finite element
analysis (FEA) and simulation needs. Using Matereality, engineers can easily
expand ALGOR's default material library and conveniently apply properties to
enhance the accuracy of their analyses.
Matereality contains the largest repository of CAE-suitable data on
plastics, metals, rubber, foam and composites, including stress-strain
curves; rate-dependent data; tensile, compressive, creep and fatigue data.
It allows users to access well-known databases such as the MMPDS-02
(formerly Mil-handbook), used widely by the aerospace and defense
manufacturing industries, and the NIST Lead-Free Solder Database for the
electronics industry.
In addition, Matereality's ability to house any material and any data
means that ALGOR users can build enduring collections of material properties
for ALGOR and PLM-wide use. Materials are never lost, always there and can
be viewed using Matereality’s cutting-edge visualization tools, subjected to
instant unit conversion and CAE/FEA export capabilities. "'Matereality for
ALGOR' provides our users with customized access to an industry-leading
resource for material property data," said ALGOR Product Manager Bob
Williams. "Using Matereality, customers can easily expand our default
material library and conveniently apply properties to enhance the accuracy
of their analyses."
Matereality satisfies the needs of users to have private databases, while
providing valuable access to external databases. "Our vision is to create a
global material data pipeline, serving various companies and PLM products.
We are happy to add connectivity to ALGOR, a prominent player in this
space," says Hubert Lobo, Matereality President.
