A space for simulation related technical resources and discussions.
Outlook: * Inspire CAD to genereate model. Simlab meshing and solution set-up in easy GUI for CFD and Structural analysis. * Mapped pressure from CFD to Structure. This results can be used to evaluate the structure and improve the design of the panel. This article includes: * 1 Inspire model with the solar panel.* Altair…
Some building codes around the world require the consideration of notional factors to represent geometric imperfections in a structure, like out of plumb columns by inducing some lateral loads in the model. The notional loads are the product of all vertical reactions for the load case/combination and the notional load…
Unlocking Engineering Potential with SIMSOLID In the ever-evolving landscape of engineering, simulation software has become an indispensable tool for product development. Among the myriad of options available, SIMSOLID stands out as a game-changer, particularly for engineers working on complex geometries and demanding…
Introduction Fiber orientation refers to fiber tensor alignment in the Injection Molding Process. It is influenced by many factors like Cooling rate, Temperature, Injection Speed, Mold geometry, etc. For high-quality part manufacturing, Fiber-infused materials are used by the manufacturers. In major industries like…
Introduction Foaming simulation is a niche technology used by many industries. The utilization of Foaming simulation is increasing like casting and other manufacturing simulations. Foaming manufacturing has different physics and fundamentals when it comes to material. Casting and Injection Molding materials are commonly…
S-FRAME suite has a wide range of solutions for different cases that structural engineers might encounter. S-FRAME, the most versatile in the suite, has a useful feature that allows users to use a wizard to create structures with various geometric shapes. S-TIMBER, however, doesn't count with these wizards but that doesn't…
How to interact with current model Below are the code examples that explains how we can interact with existing model. SketchPart : Sketch Part hold only point, Curve and area feature in case of closed sketches. from hwx import inspire #get the current model model = inspire.getModel() # or you can use…
Building a Parametric Model with Sketches, Geometry, Variables, and Dimensioning in Altair Inspire. To make a sketch entity parametric in Altair Inspire, you need to add dimensions to the sketch and assign model variables to those dimensions. This allows the entity to be driven by variables, enabling flexible adjustments.…
In the design and analysis of structures like the Architectural building, understanding wind load scenarios is crucial for ensuring both performance and structural integrity. SimSolid proves to be a valuable tool in this evaluation process. Wind loads, generated by air movement around the building, have a significant…
Introduction to Parametric Modeling Parametric modeling allows designers to define relationships between different elements of a model through variables, constraints, and dimensions. This approach allows the user to change the dimensions of one element, and automatically adjust other elements that depend on it. The beauty…
