STRUCTURAL
Today’s organizations face growing complexity on multiple fronts. They must integrate mechanical, electrical, and control systems, while adopting novel materials, advanced manufacturing methods, and leveraging technologies like cloud computing. Avoiding these complexities are not an option, as it would stifle innovation—the key to gaining a competitive edge.
To succeed, multiple engineering disciplines and methodologies need to be merged so as to rapidly conceptualize, evaluate, refine, and bring new products to market.
Our comprehensive CAE solutions are instrumental in managing these complexities, which enables simulation and analysis of designs across mechanical, electrical, and control systems, wherein engineers could model and validate complex systems before physical prototypes are built. This allows companies to explore new concepts quickly, optimize designs using advanced materials or manufacturing techniques, and integrate cloud computing capabilities. By providing early insights into performance, the risks of costly errors are avoided, which accelerates innovation, and ultimately turns complexity into a competitive advantage.
Dynamic Analysis
Evaluating dynamic response is a key role of various engineering applications, such as assessing passenger comfort in aircraft and automobiles under varying operating conditions or evaluating the effect of vibrations on the performance of consumer products and electronic devices. Our Solution provides a full range of structural dynamics solutions, including transient, frequency, random loading and shock response. For rotating machinery like gas turbines or aircraft engines, it also offers strong rotor dynamics solutions.
Evaluate the dynamic responses of a structural model subjected to various loading conditions. Where excitation functions (such as transient type, frequency, harmonic, random) could be applied to FE model like loads, forces, motions.
Durability Analysis
Your latest design may be lightweight and look great, but will it stand the test of time? How long a product lasts in operation greatly influences end-customers’ perception of quality and reliability, and so the ability to predict product life early in the development process lets you more easily make the right engineering decisions. Physical fatigue and durability testing is extremely time-consuming and costly, and so the best way to evaluate product life is through durability and fatigue analysis.
Our Solutions help to validate a product’s structural integrity over its entire lifecycle under either simple or for complex loading conditions.
Motion Analysis
Multi-body simulation plays a vital role in predicting, analyzing, and improving the dynamic performance of mechatronic systems, ensuring they meet the highest standards of efficiency, safety, and reliability in industries like automotive, aerospace, robotics, consumer electronics, and industrial machinery.
Our solutions offer a complete range of simulation capabilities, covering rigid, flexible, and multi-body dynamics, making them indispensable for optimizing and validating mechanical system behavior. Moreover, our solution enables co-simulation with 1D and control systems, providing a comprehensive approach to system design and analysis. By integrating multi-body simulation with 1D system simulation, engineers can simulate the interaction between mechanical components and control algorithms, leading to more accurate and efficient system optimization.
Thermal and Flow Analysis
Fluid flow and thermal analysis are critical to enhancing efficiency, safety, and performance across industries such as aerospace, automotive, energy, manufacturing, and electronics.
Our solution addresses these demands through advanced techniques, including finite element analysis (FEA), turbulence modeling, single/multiphase flow analysis, and conjugate heat transfer. By adopting a Multiphysics approach, it seamlessly integrates fluid, thermal, structural, NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness), acoustics, and electromagnetic (EM) analyses.
The thermal effects on structural components due to the effect of various fluids/cooling techniques can be assessed alongside electromagnetic interactions to ensure structural integrity. With high-performance computing (HPC) capabilities, the platform supports efficient large-scale simulations, while advanced optimization algorithms help identify the best design configurations. These features collectively drive superior performance, cost savings, and faster development cycles, making our solution a vital tool for process and product optimization.
Electromagnetic Analysis
High and low frequencies electromagnetic effects coupled with thermal conditions play a crucial role in the performance and reliability of rotating machines, e-drives, transformers, power generation, distribution systems, and actuators.
Our advanced simulation tools are designed to accurately predict and mitigate these effects, ensuring optimized design and functionality while preventing potential failures. Our tools integrate seamlessly with multiple physics domains—including structural, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and thermal analysis—creating a comprehensive Multiphysics simulation environment. By coupling with structural analysis, it evaluates how electromagnetic forces impact mechanical structures, ensuring component integrity and performance across various conditions. Additionally, electromagnetic simulations can interact with CFD to analyze the influence of fluid flow on electromagnetic fields, which is critical for applications such as cooling electronic devices. Thermal simulations can also be integrated to assess the thermal impacts of electromagnetic heating, ensuring components remain within safe operating temperatures. This integrated approach supports more accurate and thorough analysis, leading to better design decisions and optimized performance across diverse engineering fields.
