Computational Engineering International (CEI) announced today that
EnSight 9.1, the latest version of the company’s extreme visualization
software, is now available.

EnSight 9.1 includes several new improvements to the powerful
visualization product including: practical volume rendering, faster and
less memory required for models which include polyhedral cells, session
files to save work and replay it on other datasets, more data readers of
CAE data including from CFD and FEA datasets, and a welcome screen to
guide new users and to rapidly access current projects. The key
enhancement is volume rendering.

Volume rendering is an important visualization technique which has until
now been unavailable to the average engineer and scientist. While volume
rendering has been used in medical imaging and seismic oil field
analysis, CEI’s EnSight brings this capability to the fields of
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for
uses in aerodynamics, astrophysics, enhancing sports performance,
automobile occupant safety, high-speed medical imaging, combustion,
alternative energy, and structural analysis.

“Practical volume rendering for CFD and FEA is only now possible because
of the development of powerful graphics cards from ATI and nVidia, and
integration with tools engineers and scientists in the field are
accustomed to, namely EnSight. Customers tell me that their previous
process of using volume rendering was to send their data to a volume
rendering researcher and wait for some images or movies to come back.”
says Dan Schikore, vice president of engineering.
