Description

Cognitive Design by CDS offers an advanced concurrent engineering platform tailored for OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers in the Aerospace, Defense, and Automotive sectors. Utilizing a unique implicit-geometry engine, this platform seamlessly integrates generative design techniques, manufacturing constraints, simulation analysis, and AI-driven design exploration into a single cohesive system. Engineers are able to rapidly generate and evaluate high-performance concepts while incorporating design for manufacturability constraints early in the process, including considerations for Casting, Machining, and Metal Additive Manufacturing. Moreover, it streamlines and automates workflows across entire product lines, significantly reducing design time and minimizing the need for rework at later stages. This innovative solution is utilized by industry leaders not only in Japan but also throughout Europe and the United States, enhancing collaboration and efficiency across global markets.

Description

Simcenter OptiStruct serves as a powerful multiphysics and multidisciplinary tool for simulation and optimization, covering both implicit and explicit analysis. By adopting a “One Model, One Solver” philosophy, it enhances workflow effectiveness, delivers necessary engineering analyses, and shortens the time required to achieve results, all while preserving precision. Genuine design advancements are achieved through the evaluation, refinement, and optimization of the entire system using a unified, integrated platform, which is precisely what OptiStruct facilitates. Engineers are empowered to evaluate a range of physics, such as durability, heat transfer, acoustics, and fatigue, all within a single model that combines structural and multiphysics analysis, thereby streamlining processes and hastening market readiness. Its flexible architecture supports collaboration with favored tools, integration of third-party software, and customization of the application, ensuring that the same model and solver approach are upheld throughout. Furthermore, OptiStruct establishes a benchmark for optimization in various areas including lightweighting, structural integrity, multi-model, nonparametric shape optimization, and multi-material applications, making it an essential tool for engineers. Ultimately, the versatility and efficiency offered by OptiStruct not only enhance the design process but also foster innovation across diverse engineering sectors.
