Over the years, computer-aided design (CAD) system geometry has evolved…from wireframes to surfaces to solids, and parametric to direct. Simulation, however, remains stuck using the same old beam, shell or simplified-solids paradigm invented more than 50 years ago. As CAD … Read More
No matter if you work at a small company or a multinational corporation, Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) technology can enable you to identify potential failures, improve performance, and find opportunities for lightweighting and cost savings. Often design and engineering teams rely … Read More
This guest contribution on the Altair Blog is written by Shun Higashide, Global Business Analyst from Elysium who is a member of the Altair Partner Alliance. With more entities being represented in a 3D CAD model, the file size is evermore … Read More
This guest contribution on the Altair Blog is written by Steve Beck, President, CEO at SantosHuman. SantosHuman is a member of the Altair Partner Alliance. Whether intentional or not, most design processes effectively prioritize product capability over usability. Starting today, this … Read More
After being capped off with a fantastic Gala Dinner at the Théâtre du Merveilleux, an incredibly impressive Day 2 of the 2018 International Altair ATC has come to a close.
With digital twins and system-level modeling tools, virtual commissioning is becoming an even more powerful technique in the Industry 4.0 toolbox.
I was eleven when I watched Star Wars for the first time “Attack of the Clones”. The idea that spaceships and other creatures can exist in any other galaxies brought me another vision of the stars. One of the major events … Read More
Creating CAD data from physical objects (reverse engineering hereunder) can be time consuming and labor intensive. Moreover, each use case has different expectations for the data. For example, some use cases demand higher quality of the CAD surfaces than others. … Read More
We must often strike the right balance between the computational time and accuracy of our simulation. Simplification/removal of unimportant CAD features, locally refined mesh, and usage of equivalent elements are some proven methodologies to reduce the calculation time. If the … Read More
