DesignSpace Features

Main Functionality

Simulates/optimizes design performance of 3D parts and assemblies for:

1. Stress, strength, factor of safety, and fatigue life
2. Vibrations - resonant frequencies and mode shapes
   
3. Thermal (heat transfer) and thermal-stress analysis

Productivity functionality

1. Integration with Autodesk Inventor and Mechanical Desktop.
   
2. User friendly menus that speak designers language
   
3. Automatic contact definition between parts - handles large assemblies efficiently
   
4. Simulation Wizards for process guidance and error proofing
   
5. Adaptive analysis for reliable results - supports all simulation types
   
6. Parametric simulations - allows quick "what-if" studies
   
7. Automatic results report preparation for information sharing
   
8. Interfaces with high-end analysis packages for high-fidelity in-depth
