Shoemaster-QS-V7.1

Shoemaster Power includes all of the functionality of Esprite and Classic and offers even more powerful features by supporting a 3D shoe last as well as the 2D standard.

Shoe styles can be created and viewed in 3D on the last. The comprehensive Last Flattening System then provides a seamless and efficient transition from the last to pattern engineering.


In addition to the standard flattening tools, Shoemaster Power now includes the Expert Flattening System which uses wizards and databases of rules and measures to guide shoemakers through the most difficult and technical operations.

Shoemaster Power has been specially developed to meet modern shoemaking needs. It includes full 3D grading features and allows computerised e-Lasts to be downloaded from last making companies in a matter of seconds.

Its 3D functionality allows you to encompass more of your existing process in a virtual environment. This reduces the costs associated with rework, as well as maximising the productivity of your last making, pattern engineering and grading departments. Shoemaster Power includes highly flexible 3D last modelling tools, 2D and 3D pattern and styling tools and a Grading Interface that is respected throughout the industry
Beginning with a last and a simple sketch, you can rapidly design the complete shoe in 3D with any combination of colours, textures, units and components. The result is a completely realistic 3D visualisation that is ideal for presentations to buyers and manufacturers.


Shoemaster Creative contains all the functionality necessary to produce attractive and convincing shoe designs. E-Lasts can be imported directly in digital form and, where necessary, modified by the program to meet the design concept. 2D sketches can also be imported as scans, and the program can interface directly with conventional graphics packages like Adobe PhotoShop. The 2D design can then be traced directly onto the last, and then units, colours and textures added to create a true 3D version of the design. Finally, buckles and other components can be imported and positioned to produce a complete 3D visualisation of the shoe.

Shoemaster Creative provides a genuine opportunity to streamline production and cut costs by significantly reducing the need for the manufacturing of shoe samples. It also integrates fully with the Shoemaster 3D pattern engineering systems, so any effects of the pattern engineering process can be seen immediately in the shoe design

AGILENT.IC-CAP.V2006B

IC-CAP (Integrated Circuit Characterization and Analysis Program) is a device modeling program that provides powerful characterization and analysis capabilities for all of today's semiconductor modeling processes.

IC-CAP offers device engineers and circuit designers state-of-the-art modeling software that performs numerous modeling needs including instrument control, data acquisition, graphical analysis, simulation, optimization, and statistical analysis.

All of these processes are combined into a flexible and intuitive software environment for efficient and accurate extraction of active device and circuit model parameters. IC-CAP also provides the power to build model libraries for Agilent EEsof EDA and other simulators.

Add-on 3 includes the following extra content:

BSIM3, BSIM4 and PSP Modeling Packages Enhancements
All the MOS Extraction Packages feature a new data architecture that makes it easier to import measured data generated by other measurement software solutions into IC-CAP for model extraction. Previous limitations about data have been removed and users can now associate customized sets of measurements to different devices. Adaptive gate voltage measurements based on threshold voltage are now supported. In addition, new functionalities were added to the extraction modules to make the flow more efficient, easier to use and more customizable.

IC-CAP Platform Enhancements
New features include a faster link to Synopsys' HSPICE on Solaris and LINUX platforms and - thanks to a new IC-CAP input type called LSYNC - simulation of MOS devices with different parameters such as L and W in a single setup are now extremely efficient.

A new UI tool called Model Organizer lets users conveniently re-organize the IC-CAP model tree structure: setups, transforms, plots, etc.

Several new PEL functions have been added and a convenient example directory called "New_Features" includes example model files designed to provide quick start guides and examples on how to use the new features.

IMPORTANT NOTE. Add-on 3 will only support HSPICE versions 2006.09 and higher. Therefore, if you are using an earlier version of HSPICE you should not install Add-On 3.

RM2006 (c) TDV

Modelling of 3D structures using a CAD like pre-processor including definition of project axis in plan and elevation.
The 3D structure is analysed allowing the simulation of any erection procedure linking the erection with to the time axis in the calculation (4D).
There are no limitations regarding bridge type and erection sequence.
14 international design code are currently incorporated and the program carries out specific SLS and ULS design code checks in accordance with these standards.
The program is in use by many international consultants and a few thousand bridges worldwide have been designed using this powerful engineering tool.

The following practical applications are specifically supported by the program:
Classical composite structure
Steel girder and concrete slab - the "classical" composite structure problem.
Different types
Different types of concrete (quality or age) combined in one single cross section, e.g. pre-cast (pre-stressed) beam and cast-in-place-slab.
Additional module
The following functions are available in this additional module:
Cross sectional characteristics
Integration of the individual parts of the total composite section. The cross sectional characteristics of the composite section are computed automatically by using the given values of the individual parts and taking their relative geometric positions into account.
The results are related either to the individual section parts, or to the integrated composite section, depending on the situation in the different calculation processes.
In every case the program will derive the individual results for each section part and will decompose the value for the composite section into the individual parts. All post processing functions (design code checks, graphics, etc.) can therefore be performed for the individual section parts as well as for the composite sections.
Pre-stressing, creep and shrinkage
Each part of this cross section can be individually identified for pre-stressing, creep and shrinkage. The user specifies the appropriate coefficients according to the individual age of concrete and the time step.
The calculation of time dependent displacements and internal forces - for individual parts as well as for composite sections - is carried out by using the same algorithm as described in the pre-stressed concrete structures technical description.
Construction stages
Generally the same features for construction stages are available as those described in the pre-stressed concrete structures technical description. An additional feature in this module makes it possible to activate an individual part of the composite section in a single construction stage. This allows not only the changing of the structural system, but also of the cross section during the construction stage sequence.
Each part of the section may be individually pre-tensioned or post-tensioned. All pre-tensioning and post-tensioning functions can be used and are described in detail in the technical description for "pre-stressed concrete analysis".
Shear connectors
As a unique a feature RM2006 contains a specific element type allowing the design of this structural part as well. The shear connector element is activated automatically when a composite cross section is completed. All results (loading cases as well as envelopes from superposition files) are available for these elements as well (only normal force is of interest!)
