The Art of Simulation Image Competition


Announcing our winners

In 2020, we asked you — our customers and student community — to submit your best simulation images and applications, so that we could showcase your achievements and get a glimpse into how you’re leveraging Ansys software to engineer what’s ahead. Our internal Ansys judges reviewed the hundreds of submissions and determined this year’s qualifying images that moved on to the public voting portion of the competition, which was open until mid-December.

Now, the votes have been tallied and the simulation community has spoken. Congratulations to our six category winners!
