File extension sta information

Eight files use the file extension STA. These are, Abaqus/CAE Information Summary File, Brazilian MSX Emulator – BrMSX Saved State, Eudora File, Game Saved State, MicroSim PCBoard Statistics Report, Reflection Saved State, Spin maker Plus Stack and the Statistica Spreadsheet. Abaqus is a program used for purposes of finite element analysis (FEA). Such tasks as heat transfer analysis, dynamic tress calculations and thermal stress analysis in the field of engineering all make use of the Abaqus. Abaqus is developed and marketed by the Dassault Systems Company.
The file extension STA file may be described as an outline of information often held in file extension .MSG files. The file is commonly used to monitor the computation of such jobs as heat transfer analysis, which is usually a long running task. The file extension MSG files are important to the .STA files because they provide useful information such as progress of any ongoing engineering analysis processes. In case of an analysis crash, the files also provide insight as to why it happened. The .STA file extension is therefore crucial in the identification of engineering software.
