ESI Group Launches SimulationX v3.8

ESI Group has launched SimulationX v3.8, a multiphysics system simulation platform. According to ESI, this release delivers significant enhancements and additional features for the simulation of drive systems, electromechanics, hydraulics, mechanics and pneumatics in various industries including transportation, energy, industrial and mobile machinery, as well as mining.

SimulationX 3.8 has expanded libraries for multiple industries. For oil & gas, and energy, a new, dedicated model library with pulleys, drums and belts/ropes enables the fast and efficient set-up of detailed models to evaluate all interactions between belt or rope, input, output and controls and to determine forces and torques. Also mechanical engineers in the energy, machinery and automotive sector now benefit from readily available dedicated circuit model elements, a company press release states.

A microfluidics library has also been added for modeling, simulating and analyzing the physiological flow behavior for medical applications. Non-Newtonian flow simulation capabilities are also available.

"We achieve continuous optimization of our internal development processes and timeframes by effectively using SimulationX. We are looking forward to the variety of new features and enhancements in the new version 3.8," says Bernd Findeisen, manager of CAE/Test at IAV GmbH.
