Solution Provider Landscape for Simulation-Driven Design
When the simulation-driven design movement first started, there was only one way to enable it: putting hybrid CAD-CAE solutions in the hands of engineers. But in the past decade or so, the approaches have grown. In this post, we discuss each approach and solution providers that address them.
What is Esteco modeFRONTIER and VOLTA?
Let’s talk about Esteco and their products. There are two main products, modeFRONTIER and VOLTA. They serve different purposes, but basically they’re both all about simulation automation and simulation data management.
Teamcenter on Cloud: What’s the Big Deal?
Teamcenter is moving to the cloud in a new version of itself called Teamcenter X. What’s going on here? Basically, you’ll be able to access Teamcenter functionality through a browser.
The big point is that Siemens Digital is going to be taking care of the infrastructure, so you don’t have to manage that as much. To understand the real implications here, let’s look at how traditional PLM solutions are set up and run.
What’s New in Ansys Discovery?
Ansys came out with a new version of their offering called Discovery, which is meant to support an engineer’s exploration of new designs while looking at performance. A lot of products had incremental capabilities and enhancements added to them over time. Is this really any different? To answer that question, it really makes sense to step back for a second and look at how do engineers explore those designs.
What is NXSketch?
What exactly is NXSketch and why do we need more sketching tools or big sketching enhancements? The latest version of NX was announced in June. They have a whole bunch of enhancements to NX, but one particular point of emphasis is improving how you are able to create and modify sketches. They’re calling it NXSketch.
What Are ModelCenter’s Capabilities?
Can you integrate simulation automation and systems engineering? Let’s talk about that next with Phoenix Integration’s ModelCenter. All right. So let’s talk about the integration between systems engineering and simulation automation. Now, this review actually ties into a series that we’re running right now that looks at how do you realize value from simulation-driven design? …
What’s New in Creo 7.0?
What are the biggest things to look out for in Creo 7.0? What are the implications there? Creo 7.0 has a lot of enhancements. However, three stood out as being aligned with how mechanical design is changing.
What is Shapr3D?
Let’s talk about Shapr3D. So first off, what is it? It is a 3D modeling tool for mechanical design. It’s actually a fair bit different from your traditional offerings. It is mobile first. What does that mean? Today, it runs on an iPad Pro and you actually use an Apple pen with it and multi-touch …
