ANSYS [NASDAQ:ANSS]: Incisive Simulation-Driven Product Engineering

Whether its witnessing a rocket launch, flying on an airplane, or using smart mobile and wearable devices, there’s a strong possibility that ANSYS [NASDAQ:ANSS] has played a critical role in its creation. Since its inception in 1970, the company has been focused on offering a broad portfolio of engineering simulation software that assists organizations in solving their most complex design challenges. With the help of its highly qualified staff, ANSYS specializes in finite element analysis, computational fluid dynamics, electronics, semiconductors, embedded software and design optimization. The company develops, markets, and supports engineering simulation software, which predicts how product designs will behave in real-world environments. ANSYS also helps in fostering the ‘what-if thinking’ methodology, so that engineers can readily explore design alternatives for an optimal solution.

With an aim to incorporate computer-based engineering simulation, ANSYS allows its clients’ engineers to refine and validate designs at the initial stages of product development where cost of amendment is the least. By deploying the ANSYS simulation solutions, organizations can identify, design, and improve their system performances. Also, with a streamlined simulation workflow, engineers can focus on enhancing the system reliability, studying multiple results in larger systems, and expanding the size and scope of their designs. With a simulation-driven product development approach, the company’s engineering simulation software not only delivers efficiency, but also reduces or eliminates physical constraints, enabling simulated tests that might otherwise not be possible. The company comprehensively helps its customers verify how their new products will work even before making a prototype, saving valuable time and money.

ANSYS’ simulation software service is catered to more than eleven verticals including automotive, aerospace and defense, oil and gas, energy, and electronic industries. In one instance, a leading utility vehicle company was facing an engine performance entanglement. The manufacturer was not able to design emission systems in utility vehicles particularly in the SUVs (Sports Utility Vehicles). Also, packaging and manufacturing constraints and costs had deterred the design of the air and exhaust systems.
