Structural Simulation with SimScale

Discover a truly accessible industry standard simulation solution directly in your web browser. With a broad range of physics, from linear statics all the way through to nonlinear thermomechanics and dynamic response, coupled with intuitive workflows and live support, SimScale allows you to drive your designs with accurate simulation insights.

The Power of the Cloud

Log in from anywhere, at any time, and simulate at any scale. Our cloud-native solution opens the door to unlimited parallel computations, centralized data storage, and worldwide collaboration. CAE analysts gain the ability to transfer their expertise and skills to design teams by creating shareable simulation templates for repetitive analysis tasks.

Many Applications

Simulate fastener and fixation concepts such as snap fits, friction fits, and bolted joints using nonlinear static analysis to assess holding forces and peak stresses.

Assess resonance risk, vibration analysis, stress analysis, and the response to mechanical shocks of battery modules, electronics units, and consumer products using dynamic analysis.

Examine the effects of transient thermal events and part interactions for EV chargers, automotive components, and turbomachinery with thermomechanical analysis.

Zero hardware or software footprint

With SimScale, investing in expensive high-performance computing hardware and caring for software installation and maintenance are a thing of the past.

Low upfront investment

Save on thousands of dollars by cutting the cost of expensive hardware and software maintenance fees.

No installation or maintenance

Connect to the Internet and run demanding simulations on any laptop or PC. We take care of software updates for you in the background.

Easy setup

With our simple workflow and ready-to-use simulation templates and tutorials, you never have to start from scratch.

“ITW is a world leader in plastic components for the automotive industry and we are successfully using SimScale in order to understand the insertion/holding force of our fasterners and perform vibration and fatigue stress to our brackets and different components. Iget good results for quite complicated plastic parts that have a lot of deformation.”

Massimo Savi

Project Manager at ITW Automotive
“By using the novel mechanical simulation based in the cloud offered by SimScale, we engineers at Withings have been able to reduce our design-to-prototype cycles from weeks to days. This tool widens our possibilities to test new designs, materials, and techniques and anticipate possible failures, as well as gains in mechanical performance within a few clicks.”

Victor Pimenta

Mechanical Engineer at Withings
“With SimScale we found our ideal balance between ease of use, variety of capabilities, and the ability to handle complex physics. However, we came to appreciate SimScale’s customer service as the most welcome benefit of all: their expert involvement allowed even less experienced engineers to run reliable simulation studies.”

Dr. Alessandro Scafato

Senior Development Engineer at ANYbotics
“I loved the fact that I could do what I need to do in a browser. I started working without installing any software. Using any computer I could upload the model and start the analysis. That was the big “wow” moment.”
