Particularly active in the mission agencies, N&R Engineering (Management & Services Corporation) is an engineering services company structured around undertaking risk analysis for for structural and non-strucutral components and systems using probabilistic methods. The firm's principals have developed a physics-based user-friendly software code, PRODAF, that estimates point probability-of-failure (safety) and provides its confidence interval. Also, working in the adaptive controls and related softwares for jet engines. These controls make jet engines respond to the pilot needs and relay messages to the pilot in case of any problems. Specializing in applied R&D in areas to include: Probabilistic Thermal/Structural Analysis, Probabilistic Failure Analysis, Structural Mistuning Analysis, Probabilistic Systems Analysis, Software Tool Development, Systems Uncertainty Analysis, Adaptive Controls, Design-of-Experiments, Engine Thermodynamic Cycle and Mission Analyses, Education Outreach and Additional Technical Areas. The firm often partners with other engineering companies with complementary analyses capabilities for bidding on government contracts. N&R also has providesd engineers as consultants to NASA and original equipment manufacturing companies to help these organizations meet their peak staffing needs.
