Engineering teams are under increasing pressure to develop smarter, more sustainable and more complex products — while reducing development time and improving confidence in design decisions.
The latest Simcenter release introduces a new era of simulation-driven engineering, bringing together advanced simulation capabilities, AI-powered workflows, improved scalability and stronger connections across the digital thread.
For organisations focused on digital transformation and PLM, these updates help engineers move from traditional simulation processes towards a more connected, intelligent and efficient product development approach.
A broader simulation portfolio for greater engineering challenges
50+ New Simulation Tools | 10x Scale up | 500x design generation and exploration |
New simulation tools from Altair join Simcenter to provide the most comprehensive simulation portfolio on the market for modeling & visualization, mechanical & manufacturing, fluids & thermal, electromagnetics, systems and more. | Multi-GPU support allows engineers to scale-up the training of AI models from CFD simulations, enabling faster design iteration with greater confidence. | Use physics-aware generative AI to create novel design concepts in seconds based on target dimensions and performance KPIs — replacing lengthy manual iteration cycles that can take hours. |
The latest Simcenter release expands simulation capabilities across multiple engineering domains, including mechanical, fluids and thermal, electromagnetics, systems simulation, HPC, data science and AI.
By bringing more capabilities together within the Simcenter portfolio, engineers can explore complex product behaviours earlier, reduce tool complexity and make better-informed decisions throughout the development lifecycle.
AI-powered engineering to accelerate innovation
Artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly important in engineering workflows, helping teams reduce repetitive tasks and explore more design possibilities.
New AI-driven capabilities enable engineers to:
Accelerate simulation model creation and preparation
Use physics-based AI models to explore design alternatives faster
Reduce reliance on lengthy simulation cycles
Identify stronger design concepts earlier in development
These capabilities support a shift towards smarter engineering workflows where simulation becomes a faster and more accessible part of everyday decision-making.
Faster simulation and improved scalability
As product complexity increases, simulation performance becomes critical. The latest release introduces improvements in compute efficiency, GPU acceleration and large-model handling.
Highlights include:
Faster processing of complex simulation models
Improved performance for large-scale engineering workflows
Enhanced support for advanced simulation and optimisation activities
These improvements allow engineering teams to evaluate more design options and reach validated solutions faster.
Enhanced collaboration and digital thread connectivity
Successful digital engineering requires more than powerful simulation tools — it requires connected data, collaboration and traceability.
Updates across Simcenter strengthen integration with PLM workflows, including improved simulation data management, Teamcenter connectivity and better control of simulation models and variants.
For PLM teams, this helps create a stronger link between engineering knowledge, simulation results and product decisions.
