Dassault Systèmes (DS) has announced the release of Isight 4.5, the simulation process automation and design optimization solution from their SIMULIA brand, as well as the SIMULIA Execution Engine (formerly Fiper) 4.5 for executing Isight simulation process flows across computing resources.

Isight provides designers, engineers, and researchers with a system for integrating design and simulation models, created with various CAD, CAE, and other software applications, to automate the execution of hundreds or even thousands of simulations.  It allows designers to save time and improve designs by optimizing against performance or cost variables through statistical methods such as Design of Experiments or Design for Six Sigma.

Isight 4.5 provides new scalable parallel algorithms for leveraging multicore computing resources, enhanced approximation, and reliability methods to evaluate product performance across a range of operating variables. It also includes improvements to multi-objective optimization, and data mining.

Users of SIMULIA’s Abaqus Unified FEA will benefit from a new licensing policy that reduces the cost for using SIMULIA’s Abaqus Unified FEA in automated design studies with Isight.  Using the combination of these products allows customers to reduce their Abaqus token usage as much as 60 percent, according to the company.
