The NASCRAC™ Software is a general-purpose fracture mechanics tool. Originally developed by Exponent (formerly Failure Analysis Associates) for the Marshall Space Flight Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the software is now available by license from Exponent, along with support services. The NASCRAC™ Software program is a versatile, user-oriented code that is currently being used to solve linear and nonlinear fracture mechanics problems in industries such as aerospace, petro-chemical, power generation, defense, and transportation. Capabilities include evaluation of stress intensity factors, J-integrals, fatigue-crack growth, creep-crack growth, and stress corrosion cracking.
Technical support for The NASCRAC™ Software is provided by engineers at Exponent who have extensive experience in fracture mechanics, failure analysis, and failure prevention.
Hands-on training seminars can be arranged either at Exponent or at your site.
