From Traditional to Transformational

Cloud-Native Deployment of Marc™ on SimScale

Why SimScale & Marc™

While established solvers such as Marc offer powerful and mature capabilities for product manufacturers, their traditional desktop-based deployment often presents barriers related to hardware constraints, licensing complexity, and limited accessibility.

To address these challenges, Marc, an industry standard for nonlinear and multiphysics simulations, is integrated into SimScale’s cloud-native simulation platform, effectively unlocking Marc’s advanced features for a broader audience of engineers worldwide.

Benefits

SimScale leverages a cloud-native infrastructure that embraces the principles of containerization, microservices, and scalable compute resources, making it possible to deploy sophisticated solvers like Marc in a fully virtualized environment.

This approach mitigates the need for specialized local hardware, reduces setup time, and simplifies access to Marc’s extensive nonlinear analysis capabilities, including large deformation, contact, and material nonlinearity.

Cloud-native deployment enables parallel and on-demand simulation, vastly improving the scalability and responsiveness of Marc’s simulations. This approach also facilitates organizational change where simulation experts become enablers for designers to run complex physics cases with confidence using the inherent collaboration and SPDM features in SimScale for quality assurance.

  • “This is exciting! We’re joining the early access program for the Hexagon Marc™ integration into SimScale and can see the immediate benefits of deploying an established non-linear FEA solver via SimScale’s cloud-native simulation platform.”

    Richard Vonlanthen

    Principal Simulation Engineer at Buhler Group

  • “We are regularly working on calculations that involve highly nonlinear materials and large deformations – such as sealing applications for high-pressure fluids. The integration of the non-linear Marc™ solver by Hexagon into SimScale is a perfect fit for our CAE teams, and we are looking forward to exploring this further during the early-access program.”

    Amit Sharma

    Head of CAE at Versogen Inc.

  • “The key advantage of using SimScale for us is to extract fast design insights at the early stages. With the non-linear Marc™ solver available in SimScale, we will be able to perform even more R&D simulations and get to market faster. The integration is a perfect fit for our advanced automotive fasteners, and I look forward to joining the early-access program.”
