SimScale appears to be the latest to target its CAE tools to individual consultants and small companies. These users will have access to the web-based simulation platform, training and support from SimScale’s team of consultants. "Engineering simulation is now available not just for the largest companies, but for start-ups,” said David Heiny, managing director of SimScale.

“CAE simulation can help start-ups bring their designs to reality more quickly than ever before. The start-ups that we are working with are creating a wide range of projects, including structural mechanics and thermodynamics designs."

  • Multiple Solvers: structural mechanics, thermos-structural, fluid dynamics and acoustics
  • Share-ability and collaboration with clients
  • Fast compute times
