Modeling Methods and Solver Integration
My CAE supports both physics based models and reduced order approaches. Engineers can choose detailed FEA, system level modeling, or hybrid workflows depending on project needs.
Native integration with multiple solvers allows teams to switch between solvers without rebuilding models. This flexibility supports early concept work as well as detailed validation stages.
Supported Solver Types
- Finite element analysis for structural and thermal problems
- Computational fluid dynamics for aerodynamics and heat transfer
- Multibody dynamics for mechanisms and control systems
- Electromagnetics for sensors and actuators
Workflow Management and Process Control
Process templates define the required steps for each study type. Checklists, gates, and automated notifications keep projects aligned with standards.
Job dependencies and resource planning tools prevent bottlenecks. Managers gain visibility into queue status, resource use, and priority conflicts.
Workflow Stages
- Prep and geometry cleanup
- Modeling and mesh generation
- Solver execution and monitoring
- Results review and reporting
Collaboration, Data Security, and Compliance
Role based access controls ensure that users see only relevant projects. Sensitive simulation data remains within defined boundaries through encryption and audit trails.
Compliance features support regulated industries. Documented change history and export options simplify audits and design reviews.
Key Platform Advantages and Recommendations
- Connects modeling, simulation, and test data in a single source
- Reduces manual steps and repeated data conversion
- Enables consistent methods across teams and projects
- Improves decision speed with automated workflows and clear dashboards
- Supports scalability from concept exploration to detailed validation
FAQ
Reader questions
How does My CAE handle model version control and rollback?
Every change is stored with metadata, including who made the edit and why. Engineers can revert to prior versions and compare differences in geometry, results, or settings.
Can My CAE integrate with our existing toolchain and data formats?
Open APIs, scriptable workflows, and standard file import export enable integration with PLM, PDM, and test systems. Common CAD, mesh, and results formats are supported out of the box.
What performance and scalability options are available for large models?
The platform supports distributed computing, cluster jobs, and cloud execution. Memory management and solver settings allow efficient handling of large assemblies and detailed meshes.
How does My CAE support regulatory compliance and design audits?
Built in reporting captures inputs, settings, and results in a searchable log. Exportable records and traceable approvals help teams meet industry standards and internal policies.
