menu-driven feature, gives the user a simplified and intuitive method
for developing, analyzing, and examining designs.
V3.3 Key Features/Benefits
Decimation - Unprecedented polygon reduction of individual
geometry groups for today's increasingly more complex designs.
Navigation - As the only CFD visualization software package
that is completely menu driven, novice and expert CFD users
can easily and elegantly develop, examine, and modify designs.
Virtual User Interface (VUI) - Complete immersive environments
have proven invaluable to determining and better understanding
