Additive Manufacturing 

AM is rapidly revolutionising the aerospace, defence, and space sectors, and is transforming how products are designed, manufactured, and supplied. It enables aerospace and defense companies to reshape everything for optimal performance at reduced cost, in comparison to traditional manufacturing methods that require multiple steps, tools, and treatments to achieve the desired outcome. Our integrated software applications for additive manufacturing help you reimagine products, retool manufacturing, and rethink business models.

Simulation Driven Design for Automotive and Aerospace industries

In this webinar we show you how the class leading simulation tools available in Simcenter 3D Motion will enhance your understanding of your designs allowing for crucial changes prior to any component being manufactured thus reducing overall project time.

​

Motion simulation includes features that help engineers predict and understand the functional behavior of assemblies and mechanisms. We will show you the latest in simulation driven design to enable you and your business to make the most from motion simulations.

Engineer innovation with multiphysics computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation

Simcenter STAR-CCM+ is a complete multiphysics solution for the simulation of products and designs operating under real-world conditions.

 

The single integrated environment includes everything from CAD, automated meshing, multiphysics CFD, sophisticated postprocessing, and design exploration. This allows engineers to efficiently explore the entire design space to make better design decisions faster.

​Digital twins in aircraft manufacturing:

Simulation is being adopted for some unique purposes in the aerospace industry, affecting every sector from manufacturing to pilot training. The adoption of these new methodologies and technologies is enabling greater innovation, a more efficient supply chain, and reducing costs across the board. 

 

With an integrated model, aircraft architects can work in a collaborative system simulation environment and check the impact of system architecture choices on a total system level. They can make decisions to balance an aircraft’s energy usage and thermal system. This often affects fuel consumption. Using this system-level approach and complementing it with physical system modelling will lead to smarter decisions, better choices, and, ultimately, superior products.

​

Digital Twins provide a real-time, high-fidelity virtual model for its aviation counterparts. With an ability to collect, collate, store, analyse and feedback data, a digital twin can be made to provide continuous evaluation of its physical entity.
