The software includes simulation for extrusion, injection stretch, multilayer, sequential, and 3-D extrusion blow molding operations. The use of these applications in the design stage ensures that the part is maufacturable, while allowing for changes to optimize product costs, process time, and material usage. Metlab is high-performance interactive software program for scientific and engineering numeric computation. SolidWorks provides solid modeling technology to freshman engineering and engineering technology students. Its use is focused on the concept that designers think in three dimensions and that drawings and dimensioning are outgrowths of modeling.
All workstations are multimedia capable and are networked with Internet and e-mail access.
It helps decision makers tackle complex decision making situations by identifying objectives, evaluating alternatives, analyzing tradeoffs, building consensus, and presenting recommendations in a clear and coherent manner. Crystal Reports 8 is an advanced report generator. The Psychology Laboratory has twenty-three computers with speeds ranging from 100 to 650 MHz. All but four of the machines are networked with Internet and e-mail access. An HP4200 printer is connected to the network.
