ANSYS Discovery Live provides expeditious simulation, fitted closely with direct geometry modeling, to facilitate interactive design exploration and rapid product innovation. It is a synergistic experience in which you can engineer geometry, materials and physics, and instantaneously see 3-D results.

ANSYS Discovery Live is a new multiple physics simulation platform that combines several key ingredients to produce a software tool that engineers can use to do almost instantaneous virtual prototypes of the behavior of their designs directly from their solid models.

Features

ANSYS Discovery Live is breaking down the barriers that once prevented any engineer from using engineering simulation. Discovery Live is interactive, you can test several design ideas in a few seconds and receive immediate insight around the structural performance of a design.

Finding meaningful internal flow characteristics in a reasonable amount of time can be challenging. Discovery Live provides not only invaluable feedback so you can understand trends, but also near-instant solving and visualization capabilities. What’s more, you can create new geometry within the flow, or edit existing features, and your updates will occur live. No other system in the world provides
this type of information and functionality.

Discovery Live is an invaluable tool for lightweighting as it offers rapid geometry modifications and an instantaneous simulation experience that allow for the design of structurally optimized parts.

Discovery Live provides real-time data on temperature distribution as you make 3-D model changes, or change input characteristics like heat flow and material type. Most importantly, Discovery Live lets you test your ideas in real-time to achieve your design goals in a fraction of the time.

The engineering simulations are instantaneous as you change boundary conditions or make quick, 3D modeling changes. You can observe velocity, external forces, pressure, flow lines, particle flow and more to make physics-directed design decisions.

Discovery Live’s instant engineering feedback extends to even complex modal analyses. With the rapid, direct geometry editing powered by Discovery SpaceClaim, you can make adjustments to your model and instantly see the impact.
