Product manufacturers often struggle to understand true system performance until very late in the design process. Mechanical, electrical, and other subsystems are validated against their specific requirements within the systems engineering process, but full-system testing and validation comes late, leading to rework and design changes that are riskier and more costly than those made early on.Simulate \”Real World\” Physics As the world’s most famous and widely used Multibody Dynamics (MBD) software, Adams improves engineering efficiency and reduces product development costs by enabling early system-level design validation. Engineers can evaluate and manage the complex interactions between disciplines including motion, structures, actuation, and controls to better optimize product designs for performance, safety, and comfort. Along with extensive analysis capabilities, Adams is optimized...

HEXPRESS™ generates non-conformal body-fitted full hexahedral unstructured meshes on complex arbitrary geometries. In addition, the advanced smoothing capability provides high-quality boundary layers insertion. HEXPRESS™ and HEXPRESS™/Hybrid use a similar volume-to-surface approach, suppressing the need for a surface mesh. Both systems run in batch or interactive mode and are interfaced to all major commercial CFD codes. Full Hexahedral Grids (no prism, no tetrahedra, no pyramid) Direct CAD import capabilities CAD manipulation and decomposition tools Mesh wizard for rapid solution set-up and easy back and forth operation Buffer cell and boundary layer insertion for high quality cells in boundary layer regions Automatic refinement procedures based on user defined sensors either next to solid walls or at specified area in the domain Multi...

DEFORM is an engineering software that enables designers to analyze metal forming, heat treatment, machining and mechanical joining processes on the computer rather than the shop floor using trial and error. Process simulation using DEFORM has been instrumental in cost, quality and delivery improvements at leading companies for two decades. Today’s competitive pressures require companies to take advantage of every tool at their disposal. DEFORM has proven itself to be extremely effective in a wide range of research and industrial applications. Scientific Forming Technologies Corporation (SFTC) develops and supports the DEFORM System. SFTC is available for consulting, training, contract simulation and software development on a project basis.DEFORM-3D is a powerful process simulation system designed to analyze the three-dimensional (3D) flow...
