Abstract
SPREAD allows the user to perform complex stress and force analysis with little or no mathematical or computer experience. Extensive use of the program has shown that the resulting springs are much less prone to redesign than springs designed in the classical manner. The designs are usually more efficient, and the resulting product is closer to optimum when the program is used. The total savings in time, money, and effort have often been dramatic.
