“We chose the AKS for this research because it semi-automatically creates advanced explicit analyses. That signifi cantly increases our simulation effi ciency.”

"Thanks to CATIA, the amount of post-design rework has decreased dramatically. The more complex the shape is, the more remarkable the savings are."

"We were the naval architects for these two vessels. From the very beginning of the design process, we incorporated the SRTP rules, as specified by the International Maritime Organization (IMO). Our role was to coordinate the SRTP implementation with the shipyard responsible for building the vessel, and to develop the training scenarios and safety reference manuals for the ship’s crew. We relied on 3DVIA Composer, part of Dassault Systèmes’ (3DS) 3DEXPERIENCE Platform, to develop a training application that walks the crew through the safety procedures so that they are prepared if and when a crisis situation occurs.”

“Welds are a complex modeling problem requiring both thermal and structural solutions. We are looking to predict the distortion of components during manufacture, the position and magnitude of peak residual stresses, and the effects of the welding process on the metals involved.”

"Civil engineering has until very recently relied on linearly elastic, small deflection FEA methods used in software tools as the backbone of bridge analysis. However, this method is, in many instances, an approximation and doesn’t capture the full range of real-world nonlinear responses in these increasingly larger and more complicated structures. Higher-order methods found in advanced FEA software are becoming more commonplace in the industry because they provide the capability to incorporate nonlinearities to account for realistic stresses and deformations that will influence the performance and service life of a bridge.”

"We will continue to use 3DEXPERIENCE on the cloud because it offers a collaborative approach, which is essential for design."

"It’s amazing how easily we can draw shapes using the sketching tools on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. It’s actually like modelling with clay.”

"However, since CATIA records the design history, if we make one change, its impact is automatically propagated throughout the entire design. It’s faster and more secure than if we had to manually make all the changes ourselves, since the risk of forgetting something is always present. The fact that the system took care of this for us helped us to save a lot of time. We also used CATIA’s real-time rendering capabilities to analyze different materials and colors in various lighting situations. The photorealistic quality helped us optimize designs rapidly."

"Increased payload is the major benefit our customers value. If they can move the same amount of material with fewer trucks, their savings in both outlay and energy costs are considerable. Under these circumstances, ROI on a truck is arrived at faster and can be significantly increased."

“Neutrons have no electric charge, they are fantastic probes to investigate atoms and molecules without damaging them. For example, we can see what happens when a pharmaceutical interacts with molecules and get a much better understanding of its effects that hopefully will lead to better pharmaceuticals.”

“We incorporate all data in our 3D master model to ensure that everyone is aligned. This allows us to make quick and correct decisions on things like integration and requirement changes.”

“When it comes to configuration control and consolidation management, a common platform is essential because it provides a holistic view of the facility.”

"The most important point to consider in designing single-lens cameras is that they will be hand-held. It’s necessary to optimize camera handling as well as button and dial locations, and then design the style. CATIA is a very reliable tool for our designers since detailed and fine adjustments like these can be quickly incorporated into a 3D shape."

"For Nikon designers, CATIA has become an essential tool. CATIA has overwhelmingly improved efficiency, reducing the design lead time down to one-third. Mock-ups are currently created three to four times before finalizing the shape, and we believe that the key to improving product competitiveness is to further reduce the design period and improve the quality without increasing the number of mock-up creations."

“The 3DEXPERIENCE platform helps ensure the competitiveness and quality of the services we deliver to our clients.”
