Description

Ansys Sherlock stands out as the sole reliability physics-based tool for electronics design that delivers quick and precise life expectancy assessments for electronic components, boards, and systems during the initial design phases. By automating the design analysis process, Ansys Sherlock enables the rapid generation of life predictions, thus eliminating the "test-fail-fix-repeat" cycle that often hampers development. Designers can effectively model the interactions between silicon–metal layers, semiconductor packaging, printed circuit boards (PCBs), and assemblies, allowing for accurate predictions of potential failure risks stemming from thermal, mechanical, and manufacturing stresses, all prior to creating prototypes. Additionally, Sherlock's extensive libraries, which house over 500,000 components, facilitate the seamless transformation of electronic computer-aided design (ECAD) files into computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and finite element analysis (FEA) models. Each of these models is equipped with precise geometries and material properties, ensuring that stress information is accurately conveyed for reliable predictions. This capability not only enhances design efficiency but also significantly reduces the risk of costly errors in the later stages of product development.

Description

MSC Nastran is a versatile application for multidisciplinary structural analysis, allowing engineers to conduct various assessments, including static, dynamic, and thermal analyses, in both linear and nonlinear contexts. This software integrates automated structural optimization and award-winning fatigue analysis technologies, all powered by advanced computing capabilities. Engineers leverage MSC Nastran to guarantee that structural systems possess the required strength, stiffness, and longevity to prevent failures such as excessive stresses, resonance, buckling, or harmful deformations that could jeopardize structural integrity and safety. Additionally, MSC Nastran serves to enhance the cost-effectiveness and comfort of passenger experiences in structural designs. By optimizing performance in existing frameworks or creating distinctive product features, this tool provides a competitive edge within the industry. Furthermore, it assists in addressing potential structural problems that might arise during a product's operational life, thereby minimizing downtime and reducing associated costs. Ultimately, MSC Nastran empowers engineers to innovate and refine their designs effectively.
