CD-adapco™ recently held its STAR Global Conference 2014. The theme of this year's conference was "Simulating Systems." During his welcome speech, CD-adapco President, Steve MacDonald said, "It wasn't very long ago, when we struggled to fill a single room, and all of the presentations were from CD-adapco staff. This year, we have a 3-day conference, spread across six parallel tracks, with over 130 presentations from all corners of industry." This expansion of the conference mirrors the growth of CD-adapco itself. MacDonald predicted that by the end of FY2014, CD-adapco will be a $200m company. Although CD-adapco consistently delivers a profit, the strategy thus far has always been to plough that money back into the development of its software products, in particular our flagship simulation tool STAR-CCM+®. MacDonald revealed that during the next 12 months, a significant portion of that development resource will be dedicated to adding a Finite Element capability to the existing Finite Volume solver in

Enterprise technology solutions firm, I-Cubed, today announced the acquisition of Akoya, Inc., a Chicago-based supply chain analytics solution provider of patented analytic software that helps manufacturers reduce product costs by identifying pricing inefficiencies and optimizing supplier management decisions. This acquisition represents a significant expansion of I-Cubed’s product lifecycle management (PLM) related service offerings. The addition of Akoya’s part-costing data analytics and optimization technologies to I-Cubed’s strength in PLM, CAD data management and data migration will allow the company to enhance its customers’ ability to realize significant savings within their supply chains. Akoya analytics technology couples the complex information in the CAD models of engineered parts with purchasing data to provide optimized costing and supply chain information. Caterpillar, John Deere, Textron and AGCO have used this application to reclaim over $100MM in direct material savings. “Companies are receptive to targeted solutions that can help them cut costs. Akoya’s PLM analytics capabilities will help drive

The Altair Partner Alliance (APA) today announced that Multiscale Design Systems (MDS), LLC has enabled its software, MDS, on the Altair license manager. MDS focuses on composite materials and structures at multiple spatial and temporal scales. "Multiscale Design Systems is anticipating the start of a long and fruitful partnership with Altair and its Partner Alliance," said Jacob Fish, President of MDS. "Our software will help HyperWorks users perform highly comprehensive composites modeling by applying such processes as multiscale fatigue and multiphysics analyses, as well as microstructural optimization, to help them reach the ideal composite material and/or structure for their projects." MDS delivers a solution that offers a seamless blend of modeling, simulation and testing, while allowing users to quantify uncertainty and optimize composites. Outfitted with methodical model-reduction technology, MDS reduces complex unit cells from hundreds of thousands of finite elements to a manageable number of deformation modes and state variables. It also

There are over 425 user driven enhancements included in the latest release of SSI's flagship CAD/CAM software. ShipConstructor 2014 R2 is focused on streamlining workflows for users and enhancing the user experience. This has been accomplished by collecting feedback from clients in all markets and industries, then implementing hundreds of suggestions that boost efficiency, quality and stability.

Siemens’ NX™ software, the company’s flagship solution for integrated 3D computer-aided design, manufacturing and engineering analysis (CAD/CAM/CAE), is now available in a cost-effective private cloud environment. Siemens worked closely with NVIDIA Corporation to certify the deployment of NX in the private cloud using virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) with NVIDIA GRID™ vGPU™ (virtual graphics processing unit) technology. This technology enables companies to use central servers with remote access, to host software on a virtual desktop. VDI certification eliminates the need to install NX on a local client which helps reduce IT support costs. The new deployment option enhances flexibility and further expands the wide variety of platform choices available to NX customers. As a result, Siemens and NVIDIA were able to help one of their joint customers, Turkish Aerospace Industries, Inc. (TAI) successfully deploy NX in a private cloud environment. “By deploying Siemens’ NX in our private cloud using the NVIDIA graphics environment, we

Mentor Graphics Corporation today announced its unique new product introduction (NPI) solution that seamlessly links printed circuit board (PCB) design and manufacturing operations to deliver the industry’s first integrated, automated flow for the design, fabrication, and assembly of PCBs. The Mentor Graphics® Valor® NPI software product helps the design- and product-level NPI engineer prepare and validate product models according to the manufacturer’s rule-set in the engineer’s native design tool. This ensures a perfect design for production, without requiring specialist manufacturing knowledge or expertise. This then enables the process-level NPI engineer to evaluate and create process toolkits with no manual data entry, so the manufacturer will have a “right-the-first-time” design to eliminate production errors. As the market share leader in PCB computer-aided manufacturing, Mentor Graphics closes the gap between the designer and manufacturer. Now, the manufacturer can create and adjust the rules to meet manufacturing requirements that the designer can follow for

Infolytica Corporation announces today that MagNet for SolidWorks, the company’s electromagnetic field simulation add-in, is now available. SolidWorks® users who need to design and analyze electromagnetic or electromechanical devices can use this new tool directly in their preferred CAD environment. MagNet for SolidWorks is the newest embedded 3D electromagnetic field solver from Infolytica Corporation. The simulation and analysis of any electromagnetic device can be performed completely within the Solidworks environment, making it simpler than ever to setup such complex design problems. This includes a wide range of applications such as transformers, sensors, MRI, actuators, solenoids and more. This new product is not a live link or connection of two standalone software tools, but rather a fully integrated add-in to SolidWorks which runs seamlessly inside the CAD environment. This means designers can quickly make geometric modifications to examine its impact without worrying about exporting model data and dealing with compatibility issues. MagNet for SolidWorks'
