  • Vibration Analysis of an Electric Motor Bracket

    SimScale offers engineers fast and accurate structural analysis capabilities in the cloud, accessed in a web browser. Access to simulation tools is critical at all design stages to minimise design performance issues at a later stage of product development. This article describes the vibration analysis and structural assessment of an electric motor support bracket to…

  • Automated Mesh Refinement and Workflow Enhancements for Turbomachinery and Pumps

    The accurate simulation of turbomachinery, pumps, and propellers is traditionally viewed as a non-trivial process, reserved for highly experienced computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysts that represent a significant investment of time and resources for a company. A “simulation accessibility” problem exists due to the complexity of traditional CFD tools. SimScale’s cloud-native simulation platform provides an…

  • Leverage Rhino® 3D CAD and Simulate Architecture for Pedestrian Wind Comfort

    SimScale is a cloud-native simulation platform with robust CAD handling features for building- and city-scale models, including complex geometry from Revit and Rhino design software. The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) solver Pacefish©, integrated into SimScale for external wind studies, provides an automated meshing experience that is versatile in dealing with common CAD issues such as…

  • My Life at SimScale: Beka Beruashvili, Senior Operations Manager

    In this installment of “My Life at SimScale”, we want to introduce to you Beka Beruashvili, who is originally from Georgia and works as a Senior Operations Manager in the Munich office! In this article, Beka shares some insights into what his day looks like as well as some challenges and highlights that he has…

  • Electronics Enclosure Cooling: Forced Convection Simulation

    The accurate thermal analysis and simulation of electronics enclosure applications at the early design stages benefits from cloud-native tools like SimScale. A fully coupled conjugate heat transfer analysis of a high density power enclosure using forced convection cooling shows where parallel simulations in the cloud might be used to optimize the design and cooling strategy.…

  • Modeling, Simulation, and Optimization with Onshape and ESTECO

    By adopting a modern cloud-native CAD and simulation tool workflow together with process automation and decision optimization stacks, organizations can access robust modeling, simulation and optimization earlier in their product development cycle.

    It is Women’s Wednesday again at SimScale and in today’s post, we would like to introduce Elisabetta, who is a CAD and Meshing Software Developer and joined our team almost 2 years ago. Elisabetta, what do you do at SimScale? I’m a Software Developer in the CAD team. I work on SimScale’s CAD kernel, mostly…

  • Simulate Solar Load with Cloud-Native CAE

    Solar radiation has a significant impact on the indoor and outdoor thermal comfort of buildings and cities. As an additional heat source, its comprised of two components: the direct and the diffuse solar load. Since direct solar load is more important for the thermal assessment of a building design, implementing the direction is a critical…

  • EV Battery Pack Gap Fillers: A Thermomechanical Simulation Study

    Gap fillers can outperform thermal pads in battery pack applications in terms of lower thermal impedance, as gap fillers conform to surface roughness before curing. What’s more, different materials can result in different mechanical performances. With simulation, engineers can investigate and post-process many aspects of thermomechanical design from casing stresses to pouch cell swelling and…

  • It’s Women’s Wednesday at SimScale: Get to Know Kanchan! 

    In the coming weeks, we will be dedicating our Wednesdays to profiling the women at SimScale. We’ve asked them to share their achievements, challenges, and reflect on what excites them the most. Today, we’re introducing Kanchan, who is a Product Manager for Rotating Machinery and joined SimScale in November of last year.  Kanchan, what do…

  • SimScale’s Leadership Principles: What Are They and Why Do We Have Them?

    Most companies these days have an established set of company values that help them follow their mission and guide them through their day-to-day activities. In addition to our company values, here at SimScale, we have a set of Leadership Principles that we felt necessary to introduce, especially as our company grew. These principles are not…
