Benefit from using ESDU by:

Achieving greater design accuracy
With ESDU, you are gaining a concentration of the world's knowledge - validated - to help ensure your design calculations are accurate. ESDU complements the other design tools you use, e.g. Finite Element and Computational Fluid Dynamics techniques, in-house design procedures, codes, standards, etc.

Saving time & meeting deadlines
While ESDU may not be the only design tool you need, it will save you valuable time and reduce the number of other sources previously referenced.

Preventing rework or redesigns
With the integrity and reliability of ESDU's content, your design is more likely to represent the final product than one based on less systematic and validated collections of information.

Keeping projects within budget
Because ESDU helps you move through the initial phases of development more efficiently, you are able to achieve the desired design on time and under budget.

Having design flexibility
Apply your skills and training with ESDU data and methods to explore design options and scenarios that lead to the best design.
