SimDesigner makes linear and nonlinear FEA, thermal
analysis, and motion analysis capabilities from
MSC.Nastran, Marc, and Adams available within the CATIA V5
CAD environment. Many manufacturers want to bring
simulation forward in their product development process to
have functional performance analysis lead design, rather
than simply validate design. This can be challenging in
organizations that cling to an "over the wall" mentality
between design and analysis engineers, as CAE engineers
wait for detailed drawings to get started on even the most
basic analysis, and in turn, design engineers wait for CAE
to be completed. Worse yet, changes made late in the design
cycle can increase costs by several orders of magnitude and
significantly delay time-to-market.
MSC.SimDesigner enables designers or analysts to perform
analysis early by providing powerful linear FEA, nonlinear
FEA, and multi-body dynamics solver technology inside of
the CATIA V5 user environment. The benefits of providing
easy to use analysis functionality within the familiar CAD
environment include elimination of CAD translation &
fixing, enabling simulation earlier in the design process,
and correcting design flaws before products are ever seen
by customers.
