Cameras are one of the keys to autonomous technology. In this webinar, discover how to increase the accuracy of ADAS/AD simulations using the extended camera sensor simulation capabilities available in Ansys SPEOS. In addition, learn how a new lens importer now enables you to import any imaging systems into SPEOS to perform optical analyses while protecting the original system’s intellectual property.

Attend this webinar to learn how to:

• Go further in the modeling of your camera systems, including EPP, 2D distortion, focus distance, DoF and more
• Convert a SPEOS or ZEMAX Opticstudio design into a simplified model for camera simulation
• Visualize key optical characteristics of a lens system
• Create a new collaborative workflow from lens design to camera simulation

Knowing the efficiency of an electric machine throughout the torque-speed operation is important for understanding how a machine will perform in its intended application. Obtaining an efficiency map of an electric machine with testing is costly and time-consuming. In this webinar, we will introduce different techniques that use Ansys tools, including the Machine Toolkit (part of Ansys Maxwell) which has the capability to automatically calculate efficiency maps of various types of machines.

To create optical simulations that represent how material choices will react in various environments, teams of engineers and designers need an accurate texture mapping tool. The SPEOS texture mapping feature reproduces the aspect and behavior of surfaces within a defined environment, simulating a variety of materials, from uniform to multilayered materials.

Attend this webinar to learn about:

• Texture management in SPEOS
• How to create a textured material
• How to use mapping methods
• Practical examples

Processing your results is a mandatory step when optimizing your optical designs or when you need to characterize the performance of a system. Depending on the number of results, this task can be extremely time-consuming. This webinar presents the endless possibilities offered by SPEOS Scripting, an automation tool that enables you to analyze hundreds of values easily while saving post-processing time.

Attend this webinar to learn how to:

• Create your SPEOS scripts
• Run you SPEOS scripts
• Understand the scripting results

Fatigue is an important failure mode that needs to be accounted for in product design. Over time, stress cycles can cause cracks to start and grow until structural failure, so it is important to understand and predict fatigue to avoid these costly and dangerous failures. This webinar will introduce the fatigue failure mode, illustrate important concepts and demonstrate ways to predict product life. We will discuss fatigue calculation methods like stress-life (SN), strain-life (EN) and crack growth. Topics include:

• Estimating fatigue for various load conditions — static and dynamic fatigue
• Ansys fatigue module and Ansys nCode Design Life
• Case studies/test validation
• Analyzing cracks using S.M.A.R.T Methodology

He helps customers understand technologies and simulation methods through training sessions at customer user groups. Jidugu reinforces the learning processes through substantive theoretical orientations and perspectives.

Explore the filter design process for mm-Wave and 5G band requirements in this webinar. Starting with a set of specification requirements, we will take you step-by-step to a fully tuned filter design. SynMatrix, an RF passive component design platform, will be used to design mm-Wave and 5G components. This design platform combines proprietary machine learning algorithms with decades of experience in RF/microwave component R&D. Three main modules of the design process will be covered in this webinar:

• Advanced coupling synthesis and comprehensive design analysis
• Advanced computer-aided tuning
• An AI-optimized tuning system that runs automatically

The latest addition to the Ansys family is our final stop in the Additive journey. The Granta MI – Additive module combines all the different processes involved in additive manufacturing — from machines to material vendors to simulation results — and helps you to consolidate, control and share AM data across your organization. Granta MI also performs material management and traceability throughout the process.

The second stop in our additive manufacturing (AM) journey is “Build Setup”. Overlooking this step can be a shortcut to failed builds and lost time and money. In this webinar you will learn how Ansys Additive Prep enables you to create the right orientations or supports for your Metal AM (Powder Bed Fusion) Processes with its easy-to-use interface and heat maps to guide you from start to finish.

Meeting the stringent safety standards for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous vehicles (AVs) requires exhaustive physical road testing that spans billions of miles across millions of traffic and weather-related scenarios, consuming significant development time and cost.

Ansys VRXPERIENCE helps you assemble, simulate and test drive many physics-based sensors — including cameras, radar and lidar — in a virtual world. Additionally, its powerful graphical visualization capabilities enable you to assess your complex ADAS systems and AVs virtually by connecting your optical and functional operations into a highly sophisticated driving simulator.

Join us for this free webinar which spotlights how VRXPERIENCE will help you efficiently and cost-effectively create your ADAS and AV products, expediting their path to market faster than ever.

• Receive expert tips for implementing your simulation toolchain for ADAS/AVs.
• Learn how to generate massive scenario variations by using state-of-the-art model-in-the-loop and software-in-the-loop testing either on-premise or in the cloud.
• Discover how to create and test your physics-based sensors within a virtual driving experience.
• Understand how to leverage automation for creating a massive number of simulations.

Engineering analysis and design has become increasingly more challenging with ever-expanding product complexity. Engineering divisions require increasing computing resources to simulate product performance and validate design decisions. On-premise infrastructure isn’t always enough for companies to perform the rapid, sophisticated product design and analysis they need and meet project schedules. Engineers may have to wait in line for computing resources or limit the scale and complexity of their simulations to fit within fixed resources.

Learn how Ansys Cloud addresses these constraints and delivers unlimited simulation throughput, even if your IT organization isn’t HPC or cloud savvy. For the first time, engineers can quickly tap into the power of Microsoft Azure when and where they need it. Engineers submit their projects to the cloud directly from the Ansys application environment and reduce time to results by up to 20X compared to their desktop workstations. Because simulation workloads vary day by day, Ansys Cloud also saves you money by providing the computational power only when it’s needed.

Benefits

• Increase simulation throughput
• Pay only for what you use
• Access the latest hardware (at scale!)
• Move fixed expenses to variable (CapEx -> OpEx)
• Focus on engineering (not maintaining clusters)
