Mentor Graphics Corporation, (NASDAQ:MENT), the market and
technology leader in design automation and systems analysis
solutions, today announced final completion of the acquisition of
Flomerics Group PLC., a United Kingdom-based supplier of
computational fluid dynamics analysis products. The Flomerics
company will become the Mechanical Analysis Division headed by Gary
Carter, former CEO of Flomerics, reporting to Henry Potts, vice
president of Mentor Graphics and general manager of the Systems
Design Division. This acquisition not only complements Mentor�s
offerings in printed circuit board (PCB) systems design with
advanced electronic cooling thermal analysis capabilities typically
used by mechanical engineers, but broadens Mentor�s product
offerings into the engineering fluid dynamics (EFD) market for
mechanical computer aided design (CAD) analysis. With superior
ease-of-use and tight integration into all leading mechanical
design systems, the EFD products are targeted at mechanical
designers versus requiring the expertise of a specialist.
Applications for EFD include complex fluid flow analysis of pumps,
valves, aerodynamics and hydrodynamics, heating and refrigeration
systems, and consumer appliances. �Thermal analysis of today�s high
powered, compact electronic products requires ever increasing
sophisticated conduction and convection thermal analysis, for both
the full enclosure and PCBs, during the design process to meet
reliability and time-to-market goals,� said Potts. �As a supplier
of design automation software, we must consider the entire product
development process and provide analysis and collaboration tools
wherever we can help our customers be more competitive. As the
provider of the world�s most advanced computational fluid dynamics
products, Flomerics products fall squarely into this strategy.
Additionally, we see significant potential with the EFD products
that address multiple analysis applications in many industries.�
"All of us at Flomerics look forward to working as part of the
Mentor Graphics organization to grow our customer base in
mechanical design as well as our electronics cooling markets," said
Carter, general manager of Mentor�s Mechanical Analysis Division.
"We believe that with Mentor's global strength and greater
financial resources, the success and potential of Flomerics'
technology, technical expertise, and customer relationships can be
better cultivated and significantly enhanced." About Mentor
