Engineers must be in the lead to innovate and be aware of advanced technologies in today's competitive environment. Building a structurally efficient model/equipment is an important part of engineering design. To create and evaluate a new product, engineers need specialized hardware, software, and apps. The simulation software performs the simulation of real-world events in a synthetic environment, allowing engineers to improve product design. The foundation of simulation software is the process of mathematically simulating a real phenomenon. It is essentially a tool that allows the user to simulate a situation and predict the outcomes without actually conducting it.

Altair Inspire is the leading simulation software for creative design and engineering. Inspire software is widely used for carrying out structural analysis and product optimization. It aids in the design and construction of structurally efficient components, systems, and sub-assemblies. Design engineers can innovate products more rapidly and efficiently with Inspire since it provides a user-friendly interface. Additionally, it eliminates meshing, which is the most time-consuming step in conventional FEA, saving a lot of time.

Optimization-driven design is offered by Inspire, as opposed to experience-driven design where optimization was not used. In the design phase of creating hardware components, structural optimization is a crucial step. Optimization is the process of choosing the best design from a set of limited or unlimited options. When a design is optimized, the design goal may be as simple as maximizing production efficiency or minimizing production costs. Learn how to optimize, reinforce, and improve the product by identifying the most stressed areas in products using Inspire software.

Altair Inspire is equipped with the following capabilities:

(1) Easily create and modify design: Inspire software's user-friendly interface makes it simple and quick to design models.

(2) Saves time: As Inspire will cut down on or completely eliminate re-design iterations, you may produce better and more effective designs in less time.

(3) Cost savings: Inspire enables you to identify flaws in a component or machine design and optimize it for performance, saving you both time and money. Moreover, reduces development time and costs by delivering high-performance product designs in the pre-development stage.

(4) Optimization-driven design: Aids in the discovery of better designs while satisfying the boundary constraints. It also reduces the amount of time spent on design.

(5) Improved Accuracy: You have tools to measure precision and defeature solid models quickly, POLYNURBS for generating smooth geometry, and more.

Why should students use Inspire software?

It is correct to state that the future of innovation is simulation. Therefore, it is important for students to master the skill of simulation before entering the corporate world. Furthermore, learning simulation will provide practical, hands-on design experience, thereby strengthening theoretical concepts.

By incorporating Altair Inspire into your studies, you will gain the ability to design structurally efficient and innovative products. It will teach you practical engineering skills that will enable you to succeed in today’s world. If you were given the task of designing a sturdy chair, you could not only design it but also analyze it, giving you a better understanding of structural concepts. This will assist you in optimizing your design by adjusting various design parameters.

If you are a student looking to improve your simulation skills, you are at the right place. We are pleased to inform you that we offer free simulation software licenses to students.
