The initial release of SonoAnalyzer Free version 1.6.4 was missing some files from the setup package. A new setup.exe file has now been added to the site, designated version 1.6.4a. The program itself is identical - the only change is the addition of some cache files.

If you have installed SonoAnalyzer Free during the 2 days before this announcement, please reinstall from the new package. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Announcing the release of SonoAnalyzer Pro and OE, both now at version 1.6.4. This update adds a convenient option for installing Free database models (as offered with SonoAnalyzer Free). Upgrade is optional. Further details are shown below.

Announcing the release of SonoAnalyzer Free, version 1.6.4. This update includes some bug-fixes and several improvements to convenience and usability. Upgrade is recommended for existing users. More details below.

Announcing the release of SonoAnalyzer Pro and OE, both now at version 1.6.3. This update includes various small bug-fixes and user-interface improvements. Upgrade is recommended. Further details are shown below.

Announcing the release of SonoAnalyzer Pro, OE and Free, all now at version 1.6.2.

This update includes various small improvements / bug-fixes and introduces a new user-defined profiled disk model for SonoAnalyzer Pro (ie. SonoAnalyzer Pro is required to create a new design; OE and Free are capable of displaying results of a saved analysis).

Upgrade is recommended. Further details are shown below.

This is a small update to the two paid versions, adding support for the "FreeDB" downloadable database models used in SonoAnalyzer Free, and fixing a bug in the new save results option that would, in certain circumstances, prevent the results being saved or create a corrupt file.

Upgrading to this new version is recommended. Your updated file download is shown under Files in "My account". The filename is "SonoAnalyzerOE-setup.exe" (OE) or "SonoAnalyzerProR-setup.exe" (Pro). Please log into your account to download the new file. Uninstalling any / all prior versions is recommended before installing this one. Your saved settings, including the license key, should not be affected by the removal / installation.

This is the first release version of SonoAnalyzer Free - a new program offering fast analysis for some simple shapes over a limited range of material properties and dimensions using "FreeDB" databases of FEA results. The data is the same as that used in the online database-driven analysis models in SonoAnalyzer OE, but packaged for standalone use.

For a wider range of shapes, material properties and dimensions there are FEA-on-demand models available in SonoAnalyzer OE and standalone analysis of more complex shapes in SonoAnalyzer Pro. SonoAnalyzer Free can also be used as a viewer to display results of models saved from either of the paid versions.

SonoAnalyzer Free replaces SonoAnalyzer Demo (a fully-functional version of OE with a 30 day, limited use trial license), which is no longer offered. If you would like to fully test SonoAnalyzer OE there is a 10-day unlimited-use (subject to AUP) trial available for $100, with the price available as credit against a purchase of the full version of OE or Pro.

SonoAnalyzer Free version 1.6.1 is available for free download now.

Announcing the release of SonoAnalyzer OE (Online Edition) version 1.6.0, also available as a 10-day trial version.

This update includes several improvements in line with the SonoAnalyzer Pro series, notably:

• Ability to open, view and re-run Pro models saved from the Pro version using the "Save results" option
• Option to "Save results" on any OE model (after analysis is complete), creating a file that can be viewed on any other SonoAnalyzer version (including SonoAnalyzer Free) from 1.6.0 onwards.

Upgrade is recommended. Further details are shown below.

Announcing the release of SonoAnalyzer Pro (full-release) version 1.6.0. This is NOT a 60-day trial version but a full release that will not expire. As such it is only available to those clients who have purchased SonoAnalyzer Pro pre-release or upgraded from SonoAnalyzer OE.

This version is similar to the previous release-candidate but includes some bug-fixes, improvements and adds the option for offline registration.
