Ansys

Ansys is a leading CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) tool developed by the company Ansys Inc. It is used for simulation of complex engineering problems. Presently it is used by wide industries such as automobile, aerospace and civil etc.

It work on the principal of FEA (Finite Element analysis) and offers structural analysis, CFD (fluid dynamics) and thermal analysis. The main reason for using Ansys is that designer can test their design before creating a physical prototype which results in cost and time saving.

This process allow them to refine and optimize their design at basic level of design. It ensures reliable, cost-effective, and innovative product development through advanced virtual testing.
