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.

Description

Simcenter PSIM is a specialized Siemens software solution for simulating and designing power electronics, motor drives, and related control systems. It is built to help engineers calculate power converter losses, evaluate motor drive efficiency, analyze conducted EMI, and develop analog or digital control strategies. The platform combines an intuitive interface with a reliable simulation engine that helps reduce time spent fixing convergence problems. Simcenter PSIM is especially useful for high-speed switching simulations because it can handle challenging current and voltage waveforms more smoothly than many general-purpose tools. Engineers can use its design suites for power supplies, resonant LLC converters, motor drives, EMI analysis, filter design, and hybrid electric vehicle powertrain systems. The software can calculate switching and conduction losses for diodes, MOSFETs, IGBTs, SiC devices, GaN devices, and losses in inductors. It also supports automatic embedded C code generation from control schematics, helping teams shorten development time and reduce manual coding effort. Verification features such as Monte Carlo, sensitivity, and fault analysis help users evaluate design robustness and support DFMEA activities. Simcenter PSIM gives power electronics teams a fast and practical environment for simulation, control prototyping, and design validation.
