PITTSBURGH, Feb. 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- ANSYS (NASDAQ:
ANSS) is revolutionizing product engineering by enabling engineers
to create smarter designs faster and more efficiently with today's
commercial release of ANSYS® Discovery Live™. Discovery Live will
empower millions of engineers around the world to confidently
simulate designs in real-time quickly and more economically.
The demand for smarter, faster, smaller and less expensive
products is growing, while at the same time making products more
complex. Trends like the Internet of Things, smart connected
products and additive manufacturing are merging the physical and
digital worlds – creating extraordinary product innovation as well
as exponentially increasing cost and design complexity across the
entire product lifecycle.
Discovery Live is expanding Pervasive Engineering Simulation™ –
empowering engineers to pose what-if questions upfront in the
design process where most of the product costs are locked in, to
rapidly explore thousands of design options and to receive
immediate feedback. Discovery Live's instant simulation tightly
coupled with direct geometry modeling in a real-time and intuitive
design environment delivers interactive exploration and rapid
product innovation. Now, every engineer can immediately examine the
impact of their design changes, instead of waiting weeks or months
to set up, run and analyze prototypes.
"We had the opportunity to preview ANSYS Discovery Live, and
it's obvious this technology is a game changer in providing
instantaneous simulation to enable interactive design exploration,"
said Craig Skinner, chief
aerodynamicist, Aston Martin Red Bull Racing.
ANSYS unveiled Discovery Live's capabilities for instantaneous
solving of major physics during a five-month technology preview —
the most successful customer preview in ANSYS history. Today's
product launch expands on the types of inputs and displays users
have at their disposal, increasing fluids, structural and thermal
capabilities.
"ANSYS Discovery Live empowers us to run different design
scenarios in real time and speeds our development process
considerably,"saidMatt Carlson, vice president business
development, Wibotic. "Discovery Live provides us a sense of
confidence before manufacturing and significant time and monetary
savings – enabling us to drastically reduce prototyping fees and
spend more time perfecting usability and aesthetic design."
ANSYS brings Discovery Live together with ANSYS AIM® and ANSYS
SpaceClaim® into one product family geared toward design engineers.
From rapid initial concept exploration and 3-D design to more
detailed and comprehensive validation, the Discovery product family
enables engineers at every stage. It also empowers design engineers
to collaborate with simulation experts using ANSYS flagship
products, for even more comprehensive and detailed simulation of
the world's most complex phenomena.
"From students to startups to Formula One racing teams,
thousands of users downloaded Discovery Live during the technology
preview," said Mark Hindsbo, vice president and general manager,
ANSYS. "It has been very rewarding to see users tackling the design
of almost every type and complexity of product and validating the
need for rapid simulation in the early concept development phase.
The introduction of the Discovery product family is a milestone in
our commitment to Pervasive Engineering Simulation and enabling
every engineer to benefit from incorporating high fidelity insight
into their design."
Discovery Live is powered by NVIDIA graphics processing units
(GPUs) and CUDA parallel computing that provide supercomputing
capabilities to deliver results thousands of times faster than more
traditional methods. The real-time design environment
revolutionizes the way innovative products are designed and
created.
"Discovery Live's real-time simultaneous visualization
and simulation powered by NVIDIA professional GPUs and
CUDA will transform the way engineers work," said Bob Pette, vice president and general manager,
professional visualization business unit, NVIDIA. "We're working
with ANSYS on further breakthroughs to improve workflows and
enhance creativity so designers and engineers around the world can
bring better products to market faster."
Through real-time digital exploration, Discovery Live provides
cost and time savings because it eliminates costly physical
prototyping during the development process. Engineers have the
flexibility to experiment with and creatively solve design
challenges without risking a product delay or setback.
"For 18 years Rossignol has used ANSYS during the design and
development process to produce skis and bindings that are used in
major world racing events. Performance and reliability of the ski's
equipment coupled with short time-to-market challenges require
technology that speeds the development process without compromise –
ANSYS simulation meets these demands," said Nicolas Puget, research & innovation
manager, Rossignol. "We had the opportunity to preview Discovery
Live and saw firsthand the new benefits for our project teams,
including engineers, technicians, designers and marketing product
managers. This exciting new technology for real-time simulation
will be used for future equipment design, engineering and
manufacturing."
Discovery Live and the entire Discovery product family is
available for commercial use today. To learn more, register for a
