JAR personnel work with a variety of the most prominent and powerful analysis and design programs. With our extensive knowledge base, JAR is uniquely qualified to provide integrated solutions to complex problems through all phases of product design, engineering, and manufacture. Because JAR's analysts maintain proficiency with many of the premier software packages, they can choose the best tool for any given task.

ANSYS is one of the most widely used, general purpose finite element analysis programs in the world. It provides a full-range of engineering analysis capabilities, including linear and nonlinear structural, buckling, thermal, electromagnetic, fluid flow, acoustic, piezoelectric, and coupled-field analyses. The CAD connections allow JAR access to a customer's own CAD database for design verification.

BlowView simulates and optimizes processes for blow molding. Virtual prototyping of the manufacturing process allows engineers to determine how designs and processes will perform before committing to expensive tooling. BlowView provides a means to evaluate and optimize product and tooling designs and refine process parameters to improve manufacturability, enhance quality, and reduce cost.

Of course, there are times when general purpose programs are not ideally suited to the problem at hand. In those cases, JAR may develop special purpose software to address specific problem classes. In some instances, an expert system may be developed to interact with the general purpose package in a sophisticated way. Such applications may be created using advanced procedural programming languages, object oriented programming languages, or the macro and customization capabilities of the software package (such as the ANSYS Parametric Design Language).
