	A mechanical engineer in our facility is looking for some design
packages to aid in his work, these are examples of the type of capabilities
that he is looking for:

ACSL - Advanced Continuous Simulation Language
or 
CSSL - ?

Both programs solve differential equations at discrete time intervals and by
incrementing the time a simulation is computed.  The program is largely
integration (numerical) enabling the solution to equations such as:

M d**2 x/d t**2 + C dx/dt + kx = F(t)

Other programs may exist under different titles.

We currently have a VAX 11/750 with 4.1bsd, and a boatload of
HP-3000's and 1000's

If you have any information about anything approaching this please
respond directly to me. The net is overloaded enough.
