MSC.Dytran is a general purpose, explicit finite element analysis program for simulating the nonlinear dynamic response of structures and mechanical components. As an added benefit, MSC.Dytran can also be used to effectively simulate more complex nonlinear analysis problems, such as material flow and coupled fluid-structure interaction. The simulation of this latter class of problems is available as an option to the basic MSC.Dytran structural analysis package.
