SolidThinking
Inspire
solidThinking Inspire enables design engineers, product designers, and architects to create and investigate structurally efficient concepts quickly and easily. Traditional structural simulations allow engineers to check if a design will support the required loads. Inspire enhances this process by generating a new material layout within a package space using the loads as an input. The software is easy to learn and works with existing CAD tools to help design structural parts right the first time, reducing costs, development time, material consumption, and product weight.
Evolve
solidThinking Evolve allows industrial designers to develop forms faster, using either Windows or Mac OS X. It enables you to capture an initial sketch, explore styling alternatives, and visualize products with realistic renderings generated in real time. Evolve provides organic surface modeling and parametric control, with NURBS-based surfaces and solids and a unique ConstructionTree history feature. It frees designers from the constraints of engineering-oriented CAD tools, while allowing the export of digital models required by others in the product development process.
Coolit
Coolit is a CFD (Computerized Fluid Dynamic) software. It uses the conservation laws of physics to model airflow and heat transfer in a system.
It is the only technology that provides correctly coupled and non-linear modeling of convection, conduction, and radiation, no guess are needed.
Coolit is designed especially for thermal analysis of electronic packaging systems. It is an object oriented software; which enables the creation of a model consisting of all the standard electronic components, such as printed circuits (PCB), fans vent etc., by means of easy to use graphics interface.
Coolit – The World’s Easiest-to-Use CFD Software for Electronic Packaging
| Coolit is: | There for it: |
| Fast - To Learn, | Reduce or eliminate prototype needs |
| Easy - For Modeling | Shorten time to market |
| Accurate - Prediction | Enable to check “what if cases” |
Coolit family contain 3 different products :
- Coolit - Powerful yet easy to use, for the thermal designer who must do it all - from individual components to complex systems. It's the CFD software of choice for serious thermal designers.
- CoolitPCB - The power of CFD, but not the price. Daat Research breaks all barriers keeping PCB designers from tapping CFD, the most powerful technology for board thermal design
- CoolitDC - Data center modeling software tackles the heat loads plaguing data centers. Software identifies the optimum thermal solution for managers dealing with an entire facility, or even individual racks and components
HyperWorks
HyperWorks is a computer-aided engineering (CAE) simulation software platform that allows businesses to create superior, market-leading products efficiently and cost effectively. HyperWorks accomplishes this in two significant ways:
