Accelerate Simulation-driven Design Series

Altair offers a unique set of simulation tools to evaluate product feasibility, optimize the manufacturing process, and run virtual try-outs for several subtractive and additive manufacturing processes, including casting, injection molding, metal forming, extrusion, and 3d-printing. In this session, users will learn how to validate designs early in the manufacturing process with the simplicity and affordability of the Inspire family of products. 

The motion module included in Altair® Inspire™ enables engineers to evaluate the dynamic response of products and optimize their performance. Dynamic motions of complex systems are easily generated, automatically identifying contacts, joints, springs, and dampers. Motors and actuators can be added and tuned interactively. In this session, you will learn how to simulate complex mechanisms, extract loads, and run analysis and optimization on individual mechanical components.  

Applied early in the product development lifecycle, Altair® Inspire™ accelerates the creation, optimization, and study of innovative, structurally efficient parts and assemblies. Powered by Altair OptiStruct®, the industry standard for topology optimization, Inspire provides a simple, physics-based workflow for generative design of lightweight, manufacturable products. In this session, you will learn about different topology options including optimization objectives, stress and displacement constraints, manufacturable parameters, and design interpretation with PolyNURBS.  

Altair simulation-driven design changed product development forever, enabling engineers to reduce design iterations and prototype testing. Discover how Altair® Inspire™ enables rapid design iterations through simplified modeling workflows to help deliver manufacturable, optimal designs early. Investigate structural and modal analysis on a model and visualize displacement, factor of safety, percent of yield, tension and compression, von Mises stress, and major principal stress with speed and accuracy.
