3D Direct Modeling: Removing Bottlenecks in Simulation

Geometry is a critical constituent in almost every simulation: representations must be sufficiently accurate for the given problem, possess the appropriate level of detail for pre-processing, and still be easily manipulated for iterative design modifications and optimization. Geometry creation and preparation can be the most labor-intensive stage of the CAE process, and that toil can detract from value-added work such as applying knowledge of materials, physics, and engineering to design problems and interpreting simulation results. We’ve worked closely with simulation providers to develop a product, SpaceClaim Engineer, designed to help engineers create concepts and prepare models for multiphysics without the hassles of traditional CAD.
