Upfront Simulation using Ansys Discovery Software
When designing products and systems the majority of decisions are made during the early stages of design. Many of these decisions are revised during the latter stages of design at great costs. Using simulation in the early stages of design can help Engineers and designers to make informed decisions that are less likely to need revision in the latter design stages. Thereby saving time and money. This case study explores how upfront simulation can improve productivity, innovation and quality with examples from real use-cases and a design study. This case study provides engineers and designers with compelling reasons to use simulation during the early stage of design. Ansys Discovery™, a 3D product simulation software, was used for this design exploration.
