The first is a hybrid approach, integrating test and simulation for realistic road-load prediction, even for loads that cannot be measured. And the second is a digital road approach, running a comprehensive virtual model on a digital track when test data is unavailable. Additionally, it considers new emerging technologies, such as composites and additive manufacturing.
Simcenter 3D for additive manufacturing simulation - Print right the first time
Additive manufacturing (AM) is changing the way products are made. New revolutionary machines and processes are rapidly pushing AM from the prototype environment onto the production floor. The additive manufacturing capabilities in Simcenter 3D software are used to predict distortions and defects before parts are printed, thereby reducing the number of test prints and improving the quality of the final print.
