Abstract

VIAS3D, a 3DS Platinum Reseller with global presence providing software, training, and consulting has been successfully helping the modeling and simulation community across all industries in utilizing the power of FEA, CFD, and EMAG. This presentation will discuss some success stories where virtual prototyping has helped companies achieve more economical and safer design and also have improved in-service performance. It will also discuss the importance of physical testing-based validation in creating high fidelity models and how companies can develop their strategy around testing and simulation to leverage the powerful tools offered by SIMULIA and 3DEXPERIENCE. Specific examples will include applications for medical device, consumer goods, energy, and hi-tech. We will also showcase how our AI-ML-based solution, PearlSim, promisingly extends the offerings of FEA models for design optimization.
