I do see your point; however, in this set of slides provided by T&L SFTC is not given any credit but Sigma LAbs is given credit. SGLB's DEFORM is considered a process modeling tool. Here's descriptions of DEFORM

PrintRite3D™ DEFORM – software which predicts distortion and calculates the PRE-SHAPE that results in the right final shape

DEFORM offers:
A layer-by-layer geometry tool
Provisisions for ‘as built’ to what actually ‘should be’ comparisons and capabilities for engineers regarding CAD models
Optics, mechanical system, and data path to ‘image a 2D melted powder’
Powerful detection algorithms to verify component geometries

I see SGLB's DEFORM or now Contour being more applicable to "produce continuous descriptions of field variables at the part geometry scale"; thus, I'm still leaning toward SGLB's DEFORM but It's definitely a question for SGLB at the next conference call. Thanks much for providing new insight with the SFTC's DEFORM product. I'm betting that their DEFORM trademark made SGLB change their DEFORM to Contour.
