Request for modelling capability of fluid/acoustic elements and fluid-structure interaction elements in Midas FEA NX

I hereby request that Midas include fluid/acoustic element modelling capability into the Midas FEA NX software package. 

This will enhance the ability of Midas FEA NX to undertake state-of-the-art time-history seismic analyses of large concrete dams by modelling the true dynamic characteristics of the dam-foundation-reservoir structural system and the the structural response of the system under time-based earthquake acceleration loading.

I am aware that the midas NFX software package has capability for this, but the NFX software is developed for mechanical engineering applications and does not have all the various geotechnical and concrete material models that Midas FEA NX has.
