CATIA - History
1977 - Development Year , Devloped by Aircraft

Manufacturer Avions Marcel Dassault to Devlop Miraj

Fighter Jet.
1981 its Old name CATI converted into CATIA.
1984, the Boeing Company had chosen CATIA V3 as its main
3D CAD tool.
1990, General Dynamics Electric Boat Corp. chose CATIA as
its main 3D CAD tool, to design the U.S. Navy's Virginia Class
Submarine.
1998, V5 was released, which was an entirely rewritten version
of CATIA.

History Continues..
2008, Dassault announced and released CATIA V6.
November 2010, Dassault launched Catia V6R2011x, the

latest release of its PLM2.0 platform while still continuing

to support and improve its Catia V5 software.
June 2011, Dassault launched V6 R2012.

produce its parts.

The Anglo/Italian Helicopter Company, AgustaWestland ,
use CATIA V4 and V5 to design their full range of aircraft.
The Euro fighter Typhoon has been designed using both
CATIA V4 and V5.
The main supplier of helicopters to the U.S Military forces,
Sikorsky Aircraft Corp., uses CATIA as well.

ANSYS - Introduction
Engineering Simulation Software.
Purpose To Develop Finite Element Analysis software

for structural physics that could simulate static

(stationary), dynamic (moving) and heat transfer (thermal)
problems.
