Description

Simcenter Simsolid is a structural simulation solution from Siemens built to speed up analysis by eliminating geometry cleanup and meshing. It allows engineers and designers to work directly with fully featured CAD assemblies, helping them validate designs earlier in the development process. The software is designed for complex parts and large assemblies, including models that may include gaps, overlaps, or rough contact surfaces. By delivering results in seconds to minutes on a standard PC, Simcenter Simsolid makes it easier to evaluate multiple design scenarios quickly. It supports many analysis methods, including linear statics, nonlinear statics, thermal studies, modal analysis, fatigue, thermal stress, buckling, composites, and random response. The platform also includes an extensive library of contacts, bolts, welds, rivets, adhesives, joints, bushings, and material types. Engineers can apply a wide variety of boundary conditions such as forces, pressure, gravity, thermal loads, inertia relief, hydrostatic loads, and remote loads. Simcenter Simsolid works with major CAD and PLM formats, including CATIA, NX, Creo, Inventor, Fusion 360, SOLIDWORKS, JT, STEP, Parasolid, and more. Its visualization tools help users review stress, strain, displacement, safety factors, mode shapes, modal frequencies, and other key structural results.

Description

Zoo Design Studio is a modern CAD solution designed to meet the demands of today’s hardware and product design teams. It integrates Text-to-CAD directly into the modeling environment, allowing users to create and refine parts using written prompts. Designers can fluidly move between traditional point-and-click tools, programmable code, and prompt-based modeling within a single workflow. The platform generates true B-rep geometry, ensuring designs remain precise and suitable for production. Zoo Design Studio maintains a feature tree even when using prompts, preserving design intent and editability. Its code-driven approach improves collaboration by making version control more transparent and manageable. Enterprise GPU power enables rapid iterations and real-time feedback. The credit-based system allows teams to scale usage efficiently. Zoo Design Studio reduces design friction and iteration time. It provides a flexible, future-ready CAD experience for modern teams.
