Description

Automated post-processing techniques, like 'hot-spot extraction', can cut down post-processing time from several hours to just a few minutes. The introduction of DEP MeshWorks has made it possible to conduct thorough design reviews by consolidating all identified hot spots into a single model, which aids in making necessary design modifications to eliminate these issues. Using DEP MeshWorks for weight optimization on the Yoke component of construction equipment showcases its effectiveness. Thanks to its innovative Auto-parametrization technology, models created in DEP MeshWorks seamlessly transition into parametric CAE models, allowing for swift design alterations. Furthermore, the Associative Modeler ensures that CAE models are promptly updated in response to CAD modifications, significantly minimizing the time needed for revisions. Additionally, a morphing and scaling method is utilized to create both standard and non-standard percentile human Body FE models, further enhancing the versatility of DEP MeshWorks in advanced simulations.

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.
