XYZ Scientific Applications, Inc. Announces TrueGrid for Linux Now Available Livermore, California, USA - August 3, 2000 - XYZ Scientific Applications, Inc., the world's leader in high quality, hexahedral mesh pre-processing, is pleased to announce the release of TrueGrid on Linux. Now, simulation enthusiasts are able to take advantage of today's powerful and inexpensive Intel CPUs while simultaneously benefitting from the reliability and extreme performance computing power of the Linux operating system. TrueGrid for Linux boasts the same user interface as the other UNIX and WINDOWS versions. This familiar interface allows designers to separate the geometry from the mesh. Freeing the mesh from the geometry not only permits the designer to more easily optimize the mesh for their particular application, but no IGES "fixing" is required at all! All of these features, combined with the Linux operating system, enable the designer/analyst to create the highest quality mesh in the least amount of time. This guarantees more accurate simulation results with fewer analysis runs and a shortened design-to-product cycle. XYZ Scientific Applications, Incorporated XYZ Scientific Applications, Incorporated is composed of a world-class team of PhD mathematicians and engineers who are committed to developing a truly sophisticated grid generation system. For over 9 years, XYZ has empowered users in some of the most demanding simulation environments to match experimental results with the highest degree of accuracy.
