Creo simulation

Costly and laborious physical prototyping hinders a design team, resulting in compromised schedules and budgets. However, with PTC Creo Simulate, designer engineers can better understand product performance, and accommodate the digital design accordingly -- all without needing a specialist’s FEA-background. PTC Creo enables 3D virtual prototyping so you can test a range of structural and thermal properties of your design early in the detailed design process, before you make the first physical part. The result: engineering gains early product insight, improves verification and validation processes, and delivers higher quality products at lower cost.

Features & Benefits

• Conduct standard CAE analysis types, including linear static, modal, buckling, contact and steady state thermal
• Obtain real-world performance data by directly applying conditions to design geometry without requiring data translation
• Fast, automatic solution convergence, mapped precisely to underlying CAD geometry; 3rd party solver output
• Increase innovation by simultaneously designing and simulating results of design variations
• Decreases development costs through reduction or even elimination of physical prototyping and productive, engineering-friendly user interface
• For more advanced 3D simulation and nonlinear analysis capabilities, please see the PTC Creo Advanced Simulation Extension datasheet

Mathcad

The Industry Standard for Engineering Calculations

As the industry’s most powerful resource for engineering calculations, Mathcad enables engineers to easily perform, document and share calculation and design results. Mathcad’s live, units aware mathematical notation, powerful calculating capabilities and open architecture streamline critical design processes, providing companies with the ability to speed time-to-market and outperform their competition.

As powerful as it is, what sets Mathcad apart is that it’s also easy-to-use. In fact, it’s the first solution to enable users to simultaneously solve and document engineering calculations in a single worksheet, reducing costly, time-consuming errors and redesigns, while promoting true engineering collaboration.

Requiring no special programming skills, Mathcad’s intuitive interface combines live, standard mathematical notation, text and graphs, in a presentable format which enables knowledge capture, reuse and design verification for improved product quality.

Features & Benefits

• Easy to learn and use – Task-based interface promotes usability and enables you to learn unfamiliar functions or features quickly and easily.
• Document focused – Powerful, document-centric calculation environment lets you create complex, professional engineering design documents quickly and easily, in a format that is presentable and understandable.
• Advanced Math Exploration – Display, manipulate, analyze and plot data, with full units support throughout the application, so you can create calculations for testing before committing them to a design.
• Dynamic units support throughout all calculations – This translates into reduced errors and higher accuracy of results, and more precise communication between engineers and teams, which improves process efficiency in product development.
