That's right. But the approach suggested by Harman may not be good for military / mechanical problems; but seems fine for Structural Engineers, who produced framed structures / buildings; there beam, column, slabs are basic primitive. If we allow Harman to work on his idea; we may get BRL-CAD giving solution to such structural engineers. -- H.S.Rai ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try New Relic Now & We'll Send You this Cool Shirt New Relic is the only SaaS-based application performance monitoring service that delivers powerful full stack analytics.
