TrueGrid

About
TrueGrid is a multi-blocking hexahedral mesh generator. The mesh is mathematical representation of a physical system and can be used to simulate the effects of physical forces on a physical system. The use of hexahedrons (a six sided object, like a cube) as opposed to an tetrahedrons (a five sided object, like a pyramid), ensures greater accuracy and reduces the probability of mathematical divergence when trying to solve the mathematical topology.

Unique Capabilities
TrueGrid differs from other mesh generating software in the following ways:
 * Super awesome hexing

History
TrueGrid was created by Dr. Robert Rainsberger in 1991.

Uses
TrueGrid creates a highly accurate model of a physical system and is used at times when extreme precision is called for. TrueGrid is used by academics to model physical biological systems and fluid dynamics, such as fluid dynamics in the human heart.

Interfaces
In finite element analysis different software may be used for different steps of the analysis, and the different software must be able to "talk" to each other, or use the same interface. True Grid has a common interface with the following software.
 * LS-DYNA
 * CATIA
 * Patran
