SOFTWARE
Learn how our engineering software portfolio can help you
To address the ever-increasing complexity of modern product development, engineers need intelligent tools. Smart products, short design cycles, new materials and manufacturing methods. The Siemens portfolio of product development tools can unleash an unprecedented level of innovation by allowing the engineer to create a digital twin of their product. This digital twin enables simulation-driven design and optimization, as well as data-driven and physics-based decision making in your product lifecycle. Simcenter allows you to bring better products to market, faster.
NX CAD
The most powerful, flexible, and innovative product development solution in the industry, NX CAD has the features, performance, and capabilities to help you get product to market faster than ever before.
Fibersim
The end-to-end design and manufacturing solution for composite parts. Unravel the complexities of composite materials and experience an engineering process that brings design, analysis, and manufacturing together.
IXGEN
Initially developed for the U.S. army, IXGEN enables next-generation parametric blade design and analysis. OpenMDAO integration allows seamless trade studies and DoE to be performed so you can identify top-performing designs faster.
M4 Structures Studio
M4SS enables rapid concept evaluation and structural optimization of aircraft-type primary structures (e.g., fuselage, wings, and tail). Create models of complex, built-up structures, and deliver accurate and reliable geometry and finite element models for use in the conceptual design phase of engineering design.
Simcenter Amesim
Simcenter Amesim allows system engineers to virtually assess and optimize the performance of mechatronic systems. It includes ready-to-use multi-physics libraries that combine with application and industry solutions to support designs from the early development stages until the final performance validation and controls calibration.
Simcenter FEMAP
Simcenter Femap is an advanced engineering simulation application for creating and post-processing finite element models. With powerful CAD integration, an advanced mesher, support for multiple solvers, and an intuitive graphical interface, Femap offers a comprehensive solution to ensure your product performs as designed.
Simcenter 3D
Simcenter 3D is a unified, scalable, open and extensible environment for 3D CAE with connections to design, 1D simulation, test, and data management. Simcenter 3D speeds the simulation process by combining best-in-class geometry editing, multi-disciplinary analysis, and optimization in one easy-to-use environment.
Simcenter Star-CCM+
STAR-CCM+ is a complete CFD-focused multiphysics solution for the simulation of products and designs operating under real-world conditions. STAR-CCM+ enables innovation by bringing automated design exploration and optimization to the simulation toolkit of every engineer, allowing you to efficiently explore the entire design space.
Simcenter Nastran
Simcenter NASTRAN is a multiphysics solver with a 50 year track record of delivering accurate and timely solutions to stress, vibration, buckling, thermal, acoustics, and aeroelastic finite element problems. It’s extensive capability includes nonlinear materials and loading, contact analysis, random vibration, flutter and optimization.
Other
Heeds
HEEDS is the premier design space exploration software that enables engineers to automate design modification, analysis, and evaluation in order to come to the best solution quickly. It removes the traditional barriers associated with optimization software and thereby enables a new level of design innovation.
pyNastran
pyNastran is an interface library to the various Nastran file formats. Using the BDF interface, you can read/edit/write Nastran geometry without worrying about field formatting. The OP2 interface allows you to read large result files quickly and efficiently. The pyNastran GUI can also be used to read in Nastran models and results.
Training
It is equally important to have the right tools and to know how to use them effectively. Our goal is to make sure that you realize the full value of the Simcenter portfolio. M4 Engineering can help you quickly get up to speed with Simcenter tools. We offer in-class training as well as one-on-one mentoring sessions built around your needs.
