What are Size, Shape, and Free-shape Optimization? Simulation-driven Design Explainer Series

Size, Shape, and Free-shape optimization are simulation-driven design technologies used to fine-tune the formation of structural product concepts. Used to find optimal solutions for key product characteristics like cross-sectional thickness and material choice, or to refine areas with high stress concentration, these tools help reduce the risk of product failure. Find out how size, shape, and free-shape optimization can help improve your product design process.

What is Topology Optimization? Simulation-driven Design Technologies Explainer Series

Topology is a simulation-driven design technology used to design optimal, manufacturable structures. When faced with complex parts, carrying multiple loads, packaged into a tight design space, topology optimization helps designers identify a material layout that will maximize stiffness and minimize mass. Learn how topology optimization works and how it’s applied to improve product design.

What is Topography Optimization? Simulation-driven Design Technologies Explainer Series

Topography optimization is a simulation-driven design technology helps manufacturers design and optimize thin-walled parts. Local shape modifications can improve vibration characteristics, and topology optimization software can suggest the location, shape, and orientation of these modifications, often dramatically outperforming a traditional layout. Learn more about how topography optimization works and how it’s applied to improve product design.

Systems Modeling in Engineering – Advantages and Applications

Go through this interactive presentation to understand the basics of System Modeling and its advantages and applications.

Transient Structural Impact Simulation Using Altair SimLab

In this tutorial one wants to find out if a round Plexiglas (acrylic) plate will be damaged if it suffers from the impact of a steel ball, which was dropped from a height of 1m. Assume the steel ball is 0.24 meters in diameter, and the Plexiglas plate is 1 meter in diameter and 0.05 meters thick. Assuming that the Plexiglas plate is glued to the floor.
