Simcenter offers indoor and outdoor acoustic simulation in an integrated solution that guides your team to make informed decisions during the early stages of design so you can optimize your product's acoustic performance. A unified and scalable modeling environment, combined with efficient solvers based on NASTRAN technology and easy-to-interpret visualization capabilities, allow you to quickly obtain information about the acoustic performance of your product. Contact an Expert Aeroacoustics Simcenter offers an extensive library of accurate models for predicting aeroacoustic noise sources, including steady-state models, direct models (DES/LES), propagation models, and acoustic perturbation equation solver (APE). Create aeroacoustic sources close to noise emitting turbulent flows as calculated from a CFD solution and calculate their acoustic response in the external or internal environment. For example, you can predict cabin noise inside cars and aircraft due to wind loads acting on the windows and structural body of the vehicle. In addition, other apps also allow you to assess noise from heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) and environmental control system (ECS) pipelines, train boogies and pantographs, cooling fans, ship and aircraft propellers, and much more. more. Boundary Element Method Often used for outdoor acoustics problems, the boundary element method (BEM) is ideal for problems involving very complex geometries that can be challenging to model for the FEM method. The BEM method helps to simplify the external acoustic simulation as only the external surface mesh of the geometry is required. This simplifies the modeling process and reduces degrees of freedom in the simulation model, which will result in easier analysis. Ray Acoustics Performing acoustic simulations in high frequency ranges is not always possible with standard finite element method (FEM) and boundary element method (BEM) technologies. In response to this, Ray Acoustics enables you to competently and accurately perform acoustic analysis for high frequencies and efficiently and accurately perform various acoustic and audio comfort simulations in vehicles, covering the entire auditory frequency range.

    Simcenter 3D; Additive Manufacturing Simulation; Simcenter 3D software's additive manufacturing capabilities are used to predict distortion and defects before parts are printed; Improved inherent strain approach; Print right the first time; NX workflow; Additive Manufacturing Simcenter 3D A dditive Manufacturing Simulation Additive manufacturing (AM) is changing the way products are made. Revolutionary new machines and processes are rapidly pushing AM from the prototype environment to the shop floor. Simcenter 3D software 's additive manufacturing capabilities are used to predict skews and defects before parts are printed, thereby reducing the number of test prints and improving the quality of the final print. High quality simulation environment Improved inherent stress approach Print right the first time Fully integrated into the NX end-to-end workflow Providing a platform for multidisciplinary simulation Simcenter 3D's high-quality simulation capabilities are critical to the industrialization of AM. During the simulation of the MA process, the parts are accurately meshed with tetrahedral meshes and later sliced, which gives better results when compared to voxel meshes . A new approach was developed and brought to market with Simcenter 3D. The layer-by-layer construction process during powder bed fusion printing leads to layer shrinkage during layer cooling. The rigidity of the printed structure has a strong influence on the distortion of the part. The calculated distortions can be used to compensate the part before the printing process. The initial geometry can be automatically transformed into pre-compensated shape and replaced in the built-in tray for later analysis, or it can be sent directly to the printer to print correctly the first time. Simcenter 3D for MA is seamlessly integrated into the end-to-end Siemens* Digital Enterprise Software MA workflow . The process is simplified to be used by non-computer-aided engineering (CAE) users as well. The Simcenter 3D AM solution is part of a larger multidisciplinary simulation environment and is integrated with Simcenter 3D Engineering Desktop at the core for centralized pre/post processing for all Simcenter 3D solutions. This integrated environment helps you achieve faster CAE processes and streamline multidisciplinary simulations that integrate additive manufacturing with any of Simcenter's 3D solutions, such as thermomechanical, vibroacoustic, or more complex analyses. Sectors Industry applications Aerospace and Defense Industrial machinery Auto Industry Today, AM is still primarily a research and development (R&D) activity, as this process remains expensive and slow, precluding its use in large projects, such as in the automotive industry. However, some industrial applications are already linked to the printing of complex parts, which are difficult to produce using traditional methods. The main objective of this is to create light parts with good mechanical properties. Repairing parts previously produced by traditional processes can also be a valuable application of AM due to the unique nature of each component. The space industry already produces structural parts for launchers. The objective is to produce light parts with good mechanical properties. The aeronautical industry is also developing this technology, but it is in a more exploratory phase with the aim of producing components with complex geometry. Power generation appears to be an industry that is exploiting AM to produce turbine blades and other combustion chamber components. AM can also be applied to the repair of existing turbines. Lightweight structures Generative design can be used to find new proposals that can be manufactured with additive manufacturing technology. Modules Simcenter 3D Additive Manufacturing simulates the MA process for Selective Laser Melting (SLM). The one-piece configuration on the constructed tray, including support structures, is used as a base. The user selects the parts to simulate and sets the printing process parameters (material, number of parts, layer slicing, laser parameters, etc.) and runs the simulation. The result is temperature distribution and part distortion. Simcenter 3D Additive Manufacturing is used to calculate distortion of parts during the MA process. Part distortions can be transferred to the starting geometry to pre-deform it using powerful contour representation model based geometry modification (BREP) techniques. A new offset part file is generated and can be used to replace the original part in the build tray. The compensated geometry is then used for validation and can be sent directly to the printer.

Simcenter 3D increases realism in your simulations by providing support for loading or font creation from test data and predecessor simulations of multibody or computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Simcenter Nastran® software is used to quickly solve complex indoor and outdoor acoustics problems, thanks to key features such as Automatically Blended Layer (AML) technology and Finite Element Adaptive Ordering (FEMAO), which allows using small fluid meshes with an ideal number of Degrees of Freedom (DoF) per frequency. Simcenter 3D connects seamlessly to computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided engineering (CAE), and even test data. Any design modification can be easily introduced into the structural and/or acoustic model, eliminating multiple conversions between file formats and recreating models. Simcenter 3D provides intuitive, easy-to-interpret post-processing tools for investigating noise such as sound pressure level (SPL), acoustic power, or directivity. Path, modal, and panel contribution analysis helps you quickly identify important noise sources and their propagation. The Simcenter 3D acoustics solution is part of a larger multidisciplinary simulation environment and is integrated with the Simcenter 3D Engineering Desktop at the core for centralized pre- and post-processing for all Simcenter 3D solutions. This integrated environment helps you achieve faster CAE processes and streamline multidisciplinary simulations that integrate acoustics and other disciplines, such as gear noise analysis from motion solutions, or NVH and vibroacoustics analysis that require structural or flow-induced loads. Sectors Industry applications Aerospace and Defense Automotive and transport Consumer goods Industrial machinery Marinho As noise can affect health and a silent product is often perceived as superior quality, companies are adopting efficient processes and tools to optimize the noise performance of their products. With Simcenter 3D, aviation engineers can predict cabin noise generated by turbulent boundary layers (TBL) in the fuselage or by aeroacoustic noise coming from the environmental control system (ECS). External noise can be solved using Edge Boundary Element Method (BEM) and FEM solvers . Spacecraft engineers can reduce the risk of their acoustic verification tests by virtually evaluating them in Simcenter 3D. During vehicle development and enhancement programs, Simcenter 3D capabilities can provide noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) engineers with valuable insight into acoustic, vibroacoustic, and aeroacoustic noise contributions in the vehicle cabin and external environment. Building high-quality, powerful speakers, quiet vacuums and washing machines, and other noiseless consumer goods requires advanced noise engineering and sound characterization capabilities provided by Simcenter 3D. Simcenter's 3D acoustic modules provide the capabilities needed to evaluate the noise radiated by the machine, including capturing the effect of encapsulations with sound treatments. The acoustic capabilities of Simcenter 3D can be used to study complex underwater radiation from ship hulls, propellers, and submarine hull reflections of sonar waves. Módulos Simcenter 3D Meshing for Acoustics software helps create meshes for FEM and BEM acoustic analysis. The module provides advanced, easy-to-use functionality for creating an acoustic fluid mesh for both indoor and outdoor acoustic applications from an existing structural mesh or CAD geometry. Simcenter Nastran Advanced Acoustics software provides support for standard loads and boundary conditions and key technologies such as AML and FEMAO to quickly solve acoustic simulations. It is suitable for studying component acoustic radiation and pass-by noise from complete vehicles, transmission loss from pipeline systems such as intakes and exhausts or mufflers, and transmission loss from panels. Simcenter 3D Acoustic Transfer Vector software supports acoustic transfer vector (ATV) computation, expressing the sensitivity of the pressure response in a virtual microphone per unit normal velocity at field points on a radiating surface. It can be reused to quickly predict the acoustic response to any surface vibrations. Likewise, vibroacoustic transfer vectors (VATV) express the sensitivity of microphone pressures to the unitary force applied at points in a structure. Furthermore, VATV can be quickly reused to predict the acoustic response to any force load. Modal participation factors (MPFs) can also be used with ATVs in the context of modal acoustic transfer vector (MATV). Simcenter 3D Aero-Vibro-Acoustics software supports the creation of aeroacoustic sources close to turbulent noise emitting flows and allows to calculate their acoustic response in the external or internal environment; for example, for noise from heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) and environmental control system (ECS) ductwork, train boogies and pantographs, cooling fans, ship and aircraft propellers, and much more. The product also allows defining the wind loads that act on the structural panels, leading to a vibroacoustic response; for example, in a car or airplane cabin. Simcenter 3D Load Identification allows to obtain accurate dynamic loads of a structure. Operational loads are very important for accurate response prediction, but are often impossible or difficult to measure directly. This product offers several ways to identify operating forces from measured data, either by the mounting stiffness method or the inverse matrix method. For example, in an inverse matrix method, operational vibration data can be measured under operating conditions and transfer func tions (FRFs) can be measured under controlled laboratory conditions or obtained from simulations. This data is then combined into a reverse load identification case. In addition, Simcenter 3D Load Identification supports a modal expansion solution to create enriched vibration results in a complete FE model based on measured vibrations at just a few points. Finally, a second method for deriving structural surface vibrations is provided through inverse numerical acoustics, in which pressure responses measured at just a few points close to the structure are used together with acoustic transfer vectors to identify total surface vibrations. The obtained vibration field can then be used for acoustic radiation analysis. The Simcenter 3D Environment for BEM Acoustics software supports the generation of a ready-to-run acoustic or vibroacoustic simulation model for direct BEM and indirect BEM and provides comprehensive post-processing tools to analyze the acoustic or vibroacoustic results. The Simcenter 3D Acoustics BEM solver is used to predict the acoustic response in closed and unbounded domains using a mesh only for the boundary of the fluid domain. The vibroacoustic analysis is supported by coupling the acoustic fluid with a structural modal model. Structural vibrations can also be imposed on the BEM fluid using weak vibroacoustic coupling. Simcenter 3D Acoustics Accelerated BEM software provides hierarchical matrix (H-Matrix) BEM and fast multipole (FM) BEM solvers to extend the computational limits of standard solvers . These solvers are suitable for outdoor acoustics of large structures such as vehicles and large engines, aircraft, ships, submarines, as well as high frequency applications such a ultrasonic sensors. Simcenter 3D Acoustics' time domain BEM software enables BEM solutions to resolve transient acoustic and vibroacoustic phenomena. In opposition to frequency domain based BEM solvers , Simcenter 3D Acoustics Time Domain BEM Solver offers the possibility to solve problems involving short term excitation impulsive signals in time domain. This BEM solver is suitable for applications such as parking sensor design and door slam analysis, for example. Simcenter 3D Acoustics HPC software allows you to run acoustic FEM or BEM calculations in multiprocessing mode on the parallel hardware of your choice. Parallel calculation sequences are implemented using the message passing interface (MPI) communication standard. In the case of FEM vibroacoustics, this product incorporates Simcenter Nastran's Distributed Memory Parallelization (DMP) feature. Simcenter 3D Ray Acoustics is used to predict acoustic responses up to very high frequencies and very large geometries, in closed and unlimited domains. Unlike finite element method (FEM) or boundary element method (BEM) acoustic solvers , ray acoustic solutions are not based on a fine domain discretization. Therefore, the solution is not limited by an upper frequency limit or the size of the model and the resolution is done orders of magnitude faster compared to FEM or BEM. Simcenter 3D Ray Acoustics integrates an engineering environment into Simcenter 3D to generate and post-process a ray acoustic model, as well as a ray acoustic solver , which is the CSTB ICARE solver.

Different boundary conditions are managed: Electric Field Integral Equation (EFIE), Impedance Boundary Conditions (IBC), Combined Field Integral Equation (CFIE) and Poggio-Miller-Chang-Harrington-Wu-Tsai (PMCHWT). Preconditioners (eg Multi-Resolution, SPLU, ILUT) accelerate the convergence of the iterative solution approach. Low-frequency stabilization methods (S-PEEC formulation) solve the problem of low-frequency breakage (very ill-conditioned linear system). The multiport approach minimizes the computational load for evaluating active solutions. MoM is suitable when precision is required for complex problems (in terms of geometries and materials) and when the interaction between the radiation source and the scattering structure is strong. The Uniform Theory of Diffraction (UTD) is a “ray” method, based on an asymptotic solution of Maxwell's equations. The UTD is applicable when a radiant source interacts with a scattering structure whose dimensions are much larger than the field's wavelengt h (eg ships, vehicles or scene settings such as airports, factories, cities, etc.). Under these assumptions, as well as in the case of optics, electromagnetic scattering can be described as the combination of discrete contributions (reflections and diffractions of different orders) from a number of “hot spots” distributed in the structure (edge, wedge, vertex), according to the relatively simple geometrical laws relating to the propagation of rays. UTD manages real materials characterized through transmission and reflection coefficients. Iterative Physical Optics (IPO) is a current-based high-frequency iterative technique. The IPO is applicable in the evaluation of the interaction between a radiant source and a scattering structure whose dimensions are larger than the field wavelength (for example, antenna reflectors, radomes, vehicles, etc.). The application of the equivalence theorem for the description of the scattering mechanism and adoption of the iterative process allows the reconstruction of interactions between objects in complex scenarios without resorting to ray-tracing . Computational resources are optimized by exploiting state-of-the-art technologies: GPU computing, far-field fast approximation algorithm, and iterative relaxation techniques. Thin sheets and impedance boundary condition formulations are available.

  • Structural Analysis | CAEXPERTS

    Structural analysis allows the testing of multiple design variations in reduced time, with a direct impact on “Time to Market”, reducing the number of prototypes for design validation. (Cost reduction; more quality; Predictive engineering; linear and non-linear, static and dynamic; fatigue study) Structural Analysis Linear and non-linear structural analyzes do not predict failures due to fatigue. They calculate the response of a design subjected to a given environment of constraints and loads. If the analysis assumptions are observed and the calculated voltages are within allowable limits, the safety of the environment will be confirmed no matter how many times the load is applied. The results of static, dynamic, linear or non-linear analysis can be used as a basis for defining a fatigue study. The number of cycles required for fatigue failure to occur depends on material and stress fluctuations. Most mechanical components are subjected to cyclic loading and subject to fatigue failure. Several studies on this issue were carried out to identify the percentage of mechanical failures that are caused by this phenomenon, and it can be said that this number is 50 to 90% of all mechanical failures. Tools focused on analysis are capable of predicting, virtually, without the need for physical prototypes, the behavior of structures and components, showing areas with excessive deformations and mechanical stresses, allowing the experimentation of design changes with low cost and unparalleled speed. Contact an Expert Project Cost Reduction More Quality Predictive Engineering When developing new products and solutions, staying ahead is essential. Numerical simulation tools, such as structural analysis, allow testing multiple design variations in reduced time. This has a direct impact on the “ Time to Market ” of new products, reducing the number of prototypes required for project validation and allowing for increased productivity of development teams. The use of a structural analysis tool increases the reliability of the project, allowing it to become leaner. In this way, you can maintain project safety by reducing your raw material, production and product guarantee costs. In the event of a product structural failure, the use of structural analysis tools increases the engineering team's ability to understand the incident. In this way, higher quality decisions can be taken, based on the study of borderline cases and on the assessment of what may have caused the problem.
