EDA ANNOUNCES THE RELEASE OF NEW VERSION OF AUTOPIPE PIPE STRESS ANALYSIS
SOFTWARE

(Berkeley, California -- February 15, 1993) Engineering Design Automation
announces the release of AutoPIPE Version 4.5. AutoPIPE is one of the
industry's leading pipe stress analysis programs, developed to meet the
needs of companies involved in industrial piping system design.

The new release adds mouse support to AutoPIPE's easy to use interface,
making it even easier to select commands and piping components for
manipulation and reviewing data associated with these components. The new
dynamic rotation and zoom capabilities can be used to interactively select
the best working view. AutoPIPE now also supports several Europan,
Japanese and Canadian piping codes, in addition to ASME piping codes. The
capability to analyze and design pipe flanges and nozzles has also been
added.

AutoPIPE offers a user friendly graphical interface to both occasional and
power users to build piping systems for stress analysis. Capabilities
include automatic hanger selection, advanced Static and dynamic analysis.
Code compliance and review of analysis results can be performed
interactively using the mouse.

Also released with AutoPIPE is an updated link to EDA's AutoCAD based
AutoPLANT plant design package. The link transfers complete piping
geometry, including components and supports, from models generated in
AutoPLANT. The modes can be downloaded from AutoPLANT DESIGNER and
ISOMETRICS, saving the substantial task of generating stress models from
paper drawings. Links from several other CAD and mainframe based piping
analysis programs are also available.

AutoPIPE is available for the IBM compatible personal computers in DOS and
386 versions. AutoPIPE is also available for Sun, HP Series 700 and other
UNIX workstations. For more information, call EDA at 510-848-7080.
