COLUMBUS, Ohio, Sept. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Battelle’s revolutionary Verity(TM) mesh-insensitive structural stress method soon will be available worldwide as a result of an agreement reached with Safe Technology Ltd.
Verity(TM) will be included as a module within the Safe Technology product marketed as fe-safe(TM). The non-exclusive, worldwide distribution agreement between Battelle and Safe Technology marks the first widespread introduction of Battelle’s patented Verity(TM) methodology, which predicts the fatigue life of welded structures with unprecedented accuracy.
“We are pleased to team with Safe Technology in making Verity(TM) available to users around the world,” says Battelle’s Pingsha Dong, who developed Verity(TM). Industry experts estimate the demonstrated effectiveness of Verity (TM) could save hundreds of millions -- if not billions -- of dollars in engineering, testing, and manufacturing costs.
The fe-safe(TM) suite of durability analysis software has become the tool of choice of leading companies worldwide for the analysis of machined, forged and cast components in steel, aluminum and cast iron, and for complex assemblies, high-temperature components, welded fabrications, and stamped components.
The Verity(TM) software will be released in fe-safe(TM) in January.
“The Verity(TM) method offers major advantages in terms of accuracy and ease of use,” says John Draper, Safe Technology’s CEO. “We are delighted to be working with Battelle to make it available through our worldwide network of distributors.”
Verity(TM) has been featured in recent months in major national publications and various technical publications. Until now, Verity(TM) has been available only through specific arrangements between Battelle and its clients. As a part of fe-safe(TM) software, it will be readily available worldwide.
