Press Release Body: Hampton, Virginia – On March 17, 2008, Collier Research Corp released HyperSizer version 5.2.17 structural sizing software that includes improved orthogrid stiffened panel concept analysis, automated stress reports and several improvements and updates.

HyperSizer v5.2.17 features these new capabilities and updates:

• Analyze orthogrid stiffened panels used in such industry projects as the NASA Crew Launch Vehicle (CLV) large hydrogen tank, and the NASA Orion Crew Module.
