# Optimize your Designs with Nastran In-CAD

## Next Class: December 2-5, 2019

## Location: [mHUB Chicago](https://mhubchicago.com/)

To succeed in the competitive global marketplace, manufacturers are pushed to come up with more **feature-rich designs** that are launched in to production **in an impossibly short amount of time**.

For many Designers and Engineers, this means using [Autodesk](https://www.fastwayengineering.com/autodesk-cad-cae-overview/) Inventor to build perfect CAD models of the best design which meets performance and reliability targets. The **prototyping and testing can cost** thousands of dollars.

Nastran In-CAD is an embedded Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software that allows you to **virtually test your design** without having to spend time and money on creating a prototype, testing it, breaking it, and repeating.

We are offering our Intro to Structural FEA in Nastran In-CAD class for Inventor users who want to **Become a Better Designer**.

At the end of this 4-day Structural FEA class you will be able to:

- **Virtually Test** your design, quickly and accurately.
- **Optimize** Your Design by analyzing dozens of iterations automatically.
- Design **Higher Performing Products** which are both lighter and stiffer.
- **Gain Confidence** in your analyses
- Spend **Less Time Troubleshooting** errors, by learning the best practices.
- Discuss ways to **Validate and Verify** your model by correlating simulation results to test data.
- Learn more about **Non-Linear FEA** Applications
