Platform

As companies increase their use of simulation, engineering teams need to handle the complexity of a multitude of tools and integrate their data. Failing to properly integrate systems is inefficient and a leading source of error and rework. Leading companies are using the ANSYS simulation platform to standardize their engineering simulations and to connect simulation with various business process tools, including PLM and CAD software. This facilitates simulation data and process management across the enterprise, improving the development, manufacturing and operation of smart and connected products.

Simulation uses and generates large amounts of data. Storing, managing and protecting this data is a challenge faced by many that is usually addressed by adopting ad hoc solutions that often result in data loss, process inefficiencies and, above all, risk of exposing IP. The ANSYS simulation platform provides a secure solution to archive data, enable easy data search and retrieval and set permissions for authorized access, protecting one of the most valuable assets of your enterprise.

Engineering simulations often require large computing resources for increased throughput and faster decision making. The ANSYS simulation platform delivers high-performance computing (HPC) deployed on in-house data centers or on public clouds for maximum utilization of simulation and IT resources. It supports simulation use across the entire organization, transcending departmental and geographic boundaries, and resulting in increased team productivity.

Every organization operates under constant pressure to innovate better and faster to meet changing consumer trends, comply with industry-specific regulations and stay ahead of the competition. The ANSYS simulation platform lets you quickly explore and optimize system architecture early in the design process. Using world-class simulation technology built on the platform, companies optimize product designs and processes. They deliver the right products at the right time to run smarter, sustainable and profitable operations.

Ansys offers simulation apps that multiply the effectiveness of general purpose simulation tools. Engineering simulation apps enhance your user experience while increasing speed and scalability of simulation-led product creation processes. You can build or download apps for deployment across your enterprise, and then share these apps with partners and suppliers to drive consistency and efficiency of engineering processes across their enterprises.

Ansys encourages every engineer, designer and developer to create and sell their specialized apps though the Ansys Store.

Many simulation workflows involve repetitive processes. The ANSYS simulation platform lets you automate such workflows to increase your productivity. Some simulation applications are complex, comprising specialized workflows. The open, flexible platform enables you to encapsulate these workflows into templates. This facilitates wider adoption of simulation by non-experts, reducing time-to-market and product development costs.

ANSYS multiphysics analysis capability looks at the effects of electromagnetic, structural, fluid and thermal forces in combination. As a result, it predicts product performance with greater accuracy and provides seamless data transfer between physics solutions.

When you require temporary access to additional simulation solutions, hardware or computing power, ANSYS Elastic Licensing is the flexible, pre-paid licensing option you need. Purchase ANSYS Elastic Units (AEUs) and use them when you need them to access ANSYS flagship products or extra computing power during peak usage times. Track your company’s AEU user activity using the Elastic Licensing portal to see which products are being used by whom, so you can make more informed software purchasing decisions.
