Supported software
VORtech does not supply ready-made software, but we do provide support for several Open Source of Free Software packages. We make money from the services we supply, rather than from the software itself. Below you will find an overview of the software that we support.
The OpenDA data-assimilation environment
Computer models of a process can be improved significantly by using observations of that process. This can be done through kalibration (i.e. finding suitable values for the parameters in the model) or through data-assimilation: modifying the model state so that it better corresponds with the observations. Implementing kalibration and data-assimilation functionality can be done effectively with OpenDA: a collection of software components and tools for this particular purpose. OpenDA has been developed by Delft University of Technology, Deltares and VORtech and is used for many applications. Read more>>
Fordocu: a Fortran documentation tool
Fordocu is an Open Source tool that generates documentation for Fortran code. The tool creates practical html documentation based on an analysis of the sources and the comments in the code. The generator works for Fortran77 and Fortran90 and supports all the commonly used features. Fordocu is different from other Fortran documentation tools because it generates far more complete documentation and uses the information contained in comments. Read more>>
Contact mechanics software
VORtech supports the contact mechanics software that was developed bij professor J.J. Kalker at Delft University of Technology. This software is considered to be the most accurate model for contact mechanics and is used in various application fields. VORtech finances an active research programme to further extend and improve the software. Read more>>
OmniTRANS-Matlab interface
OmniTRANS is a generic environment for transport planning. The OmniTRANS-Matlab interface is a Matlab library that allows you to work directly on the OmniTRANS database from the Matlab environment. This is useful for prototyping-purposes or for coupling Matlab applications to OmniTRANS. Read more>>
