The Business Impacts of Engineering Simulation

Simplifying models, choosing mesh types, and configuring hardware for simulation software all can slow down or speed up the simulation workflow. In this blog post, we’ll walk through these choices.

Candidates that have spent significant time in product development (whether design, simulation, physical validation or a combination thereof) bring a wealth of knowledge to a simulation team.

While having standard work procedures for all simulations would be the ideal scenario, every company’s product development cycle and product portfolio has a high degree of variability.

To be best-in-class for product development, a company needs to keep challenging themselves, their staff, and their product to grow and remain competitive. Relying too extensively on tribal knowledge

Learn about when and why you would choose a steady state or transient simulation.

By utilizing Corvid HPC for Ansys Software, your team can use multicore computers to perform a higher volume of simulations with quicker results. Your simulations can be larger and more complicated.

You have been tasked with developing a new product. It is a clean-sheet design with a reasonably large budget and enough resources to launch a robust, best-in-class product.

Your design engineering and simulation team have an iterative design process in place, but how do you ensure that same robust relationship with your physical testing and simulation teams?

Right now, you’re using CAD embedded simulation tools. How do you know when it’s time to upgrade to Ansys simulation?

A discussion of where simulation can reside in the product development cycle as well as the engineering input it provides into the product design, release, and launch processes.

How does a startup or small company achieve this end goal of having a world-class R&D department which can leverage simulation to complement physical testing?

Despite common perceptions, simulations provide more value than just engineering insight. It can tell a story about your product while increasing brand perception, mitigating bias, and building trust.

Simulation doesn’t just focus on robust product development.  It cascades monetary savings throughout the product development pipeline.
