Description

SABR is a comprehensive package specifically designed for the conception and design of shafts, gears, and bearings. Its development focuses on seamlessly integrating into the design workflow to significantly shorten the product development cycle, offering an easy-to-use graphical interface that enables detailed modeling of transmission systems tailored to the current phase of the design. Furthermore, SABR facilitates sensitivity analyses to assess the impact of various geometric characteristics, types of bearings, and gear placements, providing instantaneous feedback. The underlying solvers are rooted in recognized engineering standards and leverage Ricardo’s extensive experience in product design, manufacturing, and testing, ensuring they remain current with practical testing and development initiatives. With a straightforward and user-friendly graphical interface, users can efficiently create accurate models. The software also supports bearing analysis, including life calculations and stress visualizations that take loading and misalignment into consideration. Additionally, it accommodates complex duty cycles with various load paths and supports the design of parallel, epicyclic, and bevel gears, making it a versatile tool in the field.

Description

Simcenter OptiStruct serves as a powerful multiphysics and multidisciplinary tool for simulation and optimization, covering both implicit and explicit analysis. By adopting a “One Model, One Solver” philosophy, it enhances workflow effectiveness, delivers necessary engineering analyses, and shortens the time required to achieve results, all while preserving precision. Genuine design advancements are achieved through the evaluation, refinement, and optimization of the entire system using a unified, integrated platform, which is precisely what OptiStruct facilitates. Engineers are empowered to evaluate a range of physics, such as durability, heat transfer, acoustics, and fatigue, all within a single model that combines structural and multiphysics analysis, thereby streamlining processes and hastening market readiness. Its flexible architecture supports collaboration with favored tools, integration of third-party software, and customization of the application, ensuring that the same model and solver approach are upheld throughout. Furthermore, OptiStruct establishes a benchmark for optimization in various areas including lightweighting, structural integrity, multi-model, nonparametric shape optimization, and multi-material applications, making it an essential tool for engineers. Ultimately, the versatility and efficiency offered by OptiStruct not only enhance the design process but also foster innovation across diverse engineering sectors.
