Vanderplaats Research & Development (VR&D), Inc.

VR&D is a leading international developer and supplier of finite element analysis (FEA) and design optimization software used by aerospace, automotive, and industrial analysts and designers. VR&D provides robust, state-of-the-art software and services to speed up your product development process. VR&D now focuses on our flagship structural analysis and design optimization software GENESIS, Design Optimization Tools, DOT, and our latest graphics based design optimization software, VisualDOC.

GENESIS?is a fully integrated finite element analysis and design optimization software package. Shape, sizing and topology optimization are the design options available to the user. VisualDOC is a graphics-based, general-purpose design optimization software system. It interfaces easily to your own code or third-party analysis programs. Design Optimization Tools (DOT) is a library of software modules that is designed to help solve a variety of nonlinear constrained or unconstrained optimization problems. DOT is the optimizer used in many design optimization products such as GENESIS, VisualDOC, MSC/NASTRAN, ADAMS, FEM5, POLYFEM, DAKOTA etc.

The VisualDOC optimization software allows users to link to third-party analysis programs. VisualDOC can be used to interface FLUENT. This allows FLUENT users to perform analysis and design optimization together. Design engineeers using FLUENT can significantly reduce their design time and increase their productivity.
