Optimisation. A component with defined service loads can be optimised to reduce mass or stress, or to increase stiffness. Manufacturing constraints can be incorporated into the optimisation.

Computational Fluid Dynamics. (CFD) This discipline enables us to simulate, visualize and analyse compressible or incompressible air or fluid flow phenomena, heat and mass transfer, and chemical reactions through a modelled domain. The problems can be steady state, eg, air flow through air conditioning ducting, or require more complex dynamic analysis, eg, where moving parts interact with the flow as in a turbo-charger.
