Noran Engineering has Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software tools that allow composite product and design engineers to examine the structural, dynamic, and thermal aspects of their designs with detailed graphical visualization of data and results. The insight gained by such analysis allows designers to easily try alternate approaches, optimize their designs, improve quality, reduce design cycle time, and save time and money on prototypes and first articles. NEiNastran's value has been proven by engineers in a wide variety of industries including aerospace, military, automotive, maritime, sports, and consumer products. Formula 1 race cars, America's Cup yachts, Tour de France bicycles and entrepreneurial commercial spacecraft are just a few examples of highly advanced projects that rely on NEiNastran.

Composite materials analysis imposes a number of requirements that are significantly different when compared to isotropic materials. FEA software used for composite analysis should be designed with certain features to make it easy to use while providing results that are practical and truly valuable for application to real world problems. NEiNastran fills this need with a number of features in model creation, meshing, and post-processing.
