Abstract: The need for innovative model-based design and analysis technologies that can connect performance analysis data, processes, and knowledge across functional domains is becoming critical as product complexity continues to grow even while product development cycles continue to be shortened by competitive and regulatory requirements. VCollab is one such innovative technology.
Conclusions:
The effective utilization and deployment of VCollab’s CAX technology provides several significant business benefits to engineering organizations:
- Increased productivity, effectiveness, and corporate leveraging of scarce CAE analysis resources and domain expertise.
- CAX provides a common language for intelligent processing, rapid visualization, sharing, and automated reporting of 3D CAE results data and associated CAD and CAE models.
- Increased collaboration among product design teams in making critical design decisions sooner and faster based on CAE activities.
- Based on customer feedback, VCollab could minimize the need for CAE analysts and designers to build numerous Microsoft PowerPoint presentations by providing an interactive 3D design review and reporting capability for CAE results that are easily understandable and web accessible.
- Potential cost savings in terms of the number of CAE post-processing software licenses required, especially for collaboration with other engineering team members and managers who can take advantage of the free VCollab Play web viewer.
