Description

Ansys SpaceClaim offers a distinctive user interface, innovative modeling technology, and a versatile set of tools that facilitate the creation and modification of imported geometries without the intricacies often found in conventional CAD systems. While managing existing CAD models, users can effortlessly de-feature and streamline geometry using automated tools that are straightforward to master. This software is particularly suited for engineers who require rapid 3D solutions but lack the time to navigate elaborate CAD tools. SpaceClaim equips analysts with capabilities that expedite geometry preparation for simulations, whether that involves de-featuring CAD models, isolating fluid domains, or converting a model to beam and shell elements. By alleviating geometry-related obstacles, SpaceClaim allows analysts to concentrate on their simulations without interruption. With enhanced control over geometry, analysts can foster simulation-driven design, reduce delays between design and analysis teams, and quickly assess how modifications to designs affect outcomes, ultimately leading to more efficient workflows and better project results. Consequently, the integration of SpaceClaim into engineering practices significantly enhances productivity and collaboration.

Description

Simcenter Simsolid is a structural simulation solution from Siemens built to speed up analysis by eliminating geometry cleanup and meshing. It allows engineers and designers to work directly with fully featured CAD assemblies, helping them validate designs earlier in the development process. The software is designed for complex parts and large assemblies, including models that may include gaps, overlaps, or rough contact surfaces. By delivering results in seconds to minutes on a standard PC, Simcenter Simsolid makes it easier to evaluate multiple design scenarios quickly. It supports many analysis methods, including linear statics, nonlinear statics, thermal studies, modal analysis, fatigue, thermal stress, buckling, composites, and random response. The platform also includes an extensive library of contacts, bolts, welds, rivets, adhesives, joints, bushings, and material types. Engineers can apply a wide variety of boundary conditions such as forces, pressure, gravity, thermal loads, inertia relief, hydrostatic loads, and remote loads. Simcenter Simsolid works with major CAD and PLM formats, including CATIA, NX, Creo, Inventor, Fusion 360, SOLIDWORKS, JT, STEP, Parasolid, and more. Its visualization tools help users review stress, strain, displacement, safety factors, mode shapes, modal frequencies, and other key structural results.
