Systems Modeling and Simulation
As product complexity grows, so does the challenge of integrating the individual components in a system to ensure they work together as expected. Systems modeling and simulation helps you create a complete virtual prototype to understand and optimize the critical interactions between physics, controls and the environment throughout the product development process. Then by combining system modeling with sensors and big data, you can develop a digital twin of your product to manage its performance and maintenance after it has been deployed.

3-D physics, embedded software and systems simulation
ANSYS solutions for systems enable you to build complete virtual systems prototypes and digital twins. We offer the most advanced technologies for 3-D physics simulation, embedded systems and software design. You can assemble these different components into complete virtual prototypes of software-controlled, multidomain systems that can be used throughout the whole product lifecycle, from the initial concept to product operation.
Assess software, electronics and hardware designs together
The process of designing, developing and maintaining intelligent devices is far from trivial. The combination of software, electronics and hardware design challenges significantly increases the complexity of the product architecture and expands the scope of the engineering design. Intelligent, interconnected products have thousands of unique requirements that need to be served by a multiplicity of components, each of which have thousands of design parameters and interfaces that need to be engineered, verified and validated.
Optimize product design, operations and service
Systems simulation informs design choices and provides insight and validation of systems-level characteristics, functions, behaviour and performance. It goes beyond the design of individual parts and accurately captures the interacting effects of these parts. Further, systems simulation extends through the testing phase (to diminish costly physical testing of prototypes) and into product operation to optimally manage and maintain complex and expensive assets.
Integrated with 3-D physics and embedded software design
ANSYS Simplorer is tightly integrated with ANSYS solutions for 3-D multiphysics simulation and embedded software design. An entry-level version of ANSYS Simplorer is provided in the following products so that your component-level simulation results can be incorporated into a complete systems virtual prototype to verify and optimize for systems-level requirements.
Application
VIRTUAL SYSTEMS PROTOTYPING
ANSYS delivers a comprehensive design methodology for simulating complex products with electrical, electronic, thermo-fluid, mechanical and embedded software components. From the Internet of Things to automotive and avionic systems, ANSYS software
enables you to assemble and simulate complete system models. The methodology offers 3-D precision and reduced-order modeling for verifying multidomain system performance.
ELECTRIC DRIVES
Optimizing complex mechatronic systems such as electric drives requires in-depth analysis, expertise and rigorous methodology. ANYS gives you powerful tools such as ANSYS Simplorer for simulating components individually and as part of a complex, integrated system.
ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING
Additive manufacturing is a method of fabricating complex parts layer-by- layer from a 3-D model. ANSYS additive manufacturing simulations help you to optimize your design for 3-D printing, determine any potential stresses or distortions in the design so they can be corrected upfront, and predict the microstructure of the part based on the thermal history during fabrication. Simulation eliminates trial and error and gives you confidence that the part can be successfully built the first time with sound structural properties.
