ANSYS Medini Analyze implements key safety analysis methods (HAZOP, FTA, FMEA, FMEDA, CMA) in one integrated tool. It supports the efficient and consistent execution of the safety-related activities that are required by applicable safety standards.
Medini Analyze is well integrated with other engineering tools and enables safety analysis based on design models by utilizing standards like SysML. The application scope ranges from the early conceptual phase through product development all the way down to detailed analysis on the semiconductor level.
ANSYS Medini Analyze offers state-of-the-art analysis methods bundled in a model-based environment :
- Safety analysis and design according to ISO 26262 for E/E systems and software controlled safety-related functions.
- Integration of architectural/functional design with methods for quality, reliability and functional safety analysis.
- Support of operational situation analysis, hazard and risk analysis, Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), Failure Mode and Effects.
- Analysis (FMEA), probabilistic analysis and hardware failure metrics.
- Quality analysis for product design and related processes according to SAE J1739, VDA quality handbook, etc.
- Complete end-to-end traceability.
- Customizable generation of work products and of documentation.
- Teamwork support including a sophisticated compare and merge technology.
