Brochures

Fluid Analysis Solutions Brochure (PDF)
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is an engineering method in which flow fields and other physics are calculated in detail for an application of interest. The CFD, or fluid simulation, results can be used as part of a Simulation Driven Product Development™ (SDPD) process to illustrate how a product or process operates, to troubleshoot problems, to optimize performance and to design new products.

Analysis in Action: The Value of Early Analysis
One of the driving forces in manufacturing companies is the continuing demand for reduction in product development time and cost to maintain profitability and competitiveness.

ANSYS CFX Performance and Scaling on AMD Opteron Processors
AMD Opteron™ processors provide an easy upgrade route to 64-bit computing. Memory bottlenecks that limited performance in legacy x86 machines are eliminated.

Leveraging Simulation: The Design Innovation Process
In today's turbulent economy and brutal global markets, manufacturing companies are doing all they can to maintain their competitive edge by developing innovative designs.

Leveraging the Design Chain
In the product development process at most mid-sized and large companies, designs are defined in an engineering department and passed along in serial fashion (i.e., "thrown over the wall").

Shortening Automotive Development Time
A new, more efficient use of simulation tools is required to achieve the demanding goals in the automotive industry.
