Design Exploration applications (apps) help the Simulation Analyst to explore multiple alternatives across a range of operating scenarios that enables optimal design selection using powerful decision-making tools. Parametric Design Study Essentials and Parametric Design Study applications enable the Simulation Analyst to define and perform studies that explore alternative designs using parametric optimization methods.

The Simulation Analyst builds these studies using the applications packaged with the Structural Generative Engineer (OPZ) role on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. This best practice document focuses on and illustrates the various design exploration studies available in the Design Exploration application.

Target Audience: Simulation Analysts.

Meshing a fluid domain involves discretization of the domain into discrete cells. Various meshing techniques are used to discretize a complex model with good quality mesh, which enables the solver to solve the problem without convergence issues.

The 3DEXPERIENCE platform provides a lot of capabilities that help to mesh different fluid scenario domains, for example from simple to complex. There are certain best practices that the user needs to follow when handling fluid domain meshing. This document mainly focuses on these best practices. The SIMULIA Fluid Model Creation app is mainly used for fluid domain definition and domain mesh creation.

Target Audience: Simulation Analyst and Fluid Simulation Engineer.
