Developers associated with the Rocky Linux community have created OpenCourant, a community fork of the open-source crash simulation code OpenRadioss. The move comes in response to Siemens shutting down the four-year-old project, which was originally started by Altair Engineering and built around its Radioss solver. Commenters describe the shutdown as surprising and an unfortunate loss for the open engineering community.
