Moscow Aviation Institute Adopts SoftInWay AxSTREAM
 BURLINGTON,
MA, May 18, 2011 – Moscow Aviation Institute (MAI, State Technical University) has adopted AxSTREAM
to teach turbomachinery design. The University and SoftInWay Inc. signed a
software license agreement according to which the Educational Version of
AxSTREAM (AEV) will be incorporated into the curriculum, helping students to
gain a better, real-life understanding of the basic principles of
turbine/compressor design.
AxSTREAM Educational Version is meant for design and optimization of four
types of machines: axial turbine, axial compressor, radial turbine and
radial compressor. It consists of modules for preliminary design, 1D/2D
analysis, flow path multidisciplinary optimization, airfoil profiling, 3D
blade stacking and 3D FEA/CFD analysis.
Dr. Tech. Sc. Timouchev Serguei, Professor of Turbomachinery, Head of
Laboratory of Numerical Modeling in Moscow Aviation Institute stated: “The
aerospace industry has a significant demand for new, highly efficient
engines, advanced tools to design small and large engines and an educated
workforce capable of using them. By acquiring AEV and incorporating it into
our curriculum, we hope to solve all of these questions and train our
students to design efficient turbomachinery.”
“SoftInWay is pleased to declare our partnership with such an
authoritative university as Moscow Aviation Institute; for us this agreement
is a great opportunity for further development of the turbomachinery design
industry worldwide,” – concluded Dr. Leonid Moroz, President and CEO of
SoftInWay Inc.
Beside MAI, AxSTREAM Educational Version is successfully used by the
educational community all over the globe, including Kaluga Branch of Bauman
Moscow State Technical University (Russia), State Marine Technical
University of St. Petersburg (Russia), Pennsylvania State University (USA),
Tsinghua University (China), Namik Kemal University (Turkey) and Admiral
Makarov National University of Shipbuilding (Ukraine).
AxSTREAM Educational Version is available for purchase in yearly and
quarterly licenses at SoftInWay’s website

graduate, and post-graduate students at 10 schools, 3 institutes, and 4
branches of the University. Moscow Aviation Institute includes among its
alumni about 100 general and chief designers, 43 members and associate
members of the Russian academy of science, 250 State and Government Prize
laureates, and 21 cosmonauts who spent a total of 12 years in outer space.
The present-day Moscow Aviation Institute is a unique institute of higher
education where a thorough theoretical knowledge combines with various
practical skills. More than 120 laboratories, 3 student design offices,
numerous computer centers, an experimental-design factory, and an aerodrome
are available for our students. The Moscow Aviation Institute is an
advancing multiple-discipline academic and research center which provides
students with the current-technology knowledge to rank as a qualified
scientist and engineer all over the world. Website:
