Case Study: TLG Aerospace achieves faster, more efficient aircraft design and certification with MSC Software's MSC Nastran and Patran

Making Better Aircraft Everyday

TLG Aerospace, an aerospace engineering services company, faced the challenge of determining complex design loads for aircraft certification. This required a full aircraft analysis of air pressure and inertia forces during various maneuvers, a process that is critical yet time-consuming for the design and certification of new and modified aircraft. To meet this challenge, they turned to MSC Software and its solutions, MSC Nastran and Patran.

MSC Software provided TLG Aerospace with its core aeroelastic solver, MSC Nastran. This solution enabled faster design iterations and a more efficient aircraft design and analysis process. The powerful capabilities of MSC Nastran allowed TLG to efficiently handle tens of thousands of calculations for static and dynamic loads and flutter analysis. The result was a more streamlined process from conceptual design to final certification, providing TLG's customers with more efficient designs and faster design cycles.
