The next revolution in engineering simulation has begun, and AI is increasingly in the driver’s seat.

AI in simulation isn’t just about accelerating physics predictions any longer. AI agents are becoming capable of core engineering work too – handling decisions, performing model setup, and running simulations.

But with this new era comes a pressing question: will these powerful tools disrupt the traditional role of engineers, or unlock new levels of human ingenuity?

Watch this webinar as we explore the rise of AI agents in engineering and dive into the realities behind the buzzwords. Whether you’re curious, cautious, or actively exploring AI-driven workflows, this session will help you separate fact from fiction and prepare for what’s next.

In this webinar you will learn:

    “If there is an architect that comes to you with a geometry in the morning, you can get the building ready for simulation in one or two hours, get the results after lunch and have time to go through a process of changes, according to the results. So in one day, we are able to optimize. The results we get from SimScale help us quickly understand how a building is going to behave and what kind of impact the building geometry will have on the surrounding space.”

  • ITW automotive

    “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 fasteners, and perform vibration and fatigue stress to our brackets and different components. Since I am not a dedicated FEA engineer, I need something fairly intuitive and fast that points me in the right direction and SimScale is perfect for this with a very well-designed interface. I get good results for quite complicated plastic parts that have a lot of deformation. Plus, if I run into trouble, I can always rely on the very helpful and proactive SimScale support team.”
