During my career as a stress analyst, I have used several commercial Finite Element codes but when it comes to nonlinear analysis, Marc is the solution that really stands out. The complete element library, material models, and robust nonlinear algorithms enable Marc to solve problems from large deformations to material nonlinearity to general contact and …
Interview with Dr. Hendrik Schafstall of Simufact by d1g1tal AGENDA. Dr. Schafstall, what makes your company deal with additive metal manufacturing? We at Simufact have set ourselves the general goal of numerically reproducing production processes. And this includes additive manufacturing. Our first product in this regard focuses on the widespread powder bed melting, which is only …

MSC is proud to support the students of the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Carleton University in the design and optimization of The Peregrine, an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The team, led by Professor Mostafa El Sayed, is aiming to design, optimize, build, test, and fly an Additively Manufactured Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) with …
Aerospace vehicles are some of the most complex structures to design due to the level of physics and mathematics that needs to be involved. CAE has been a key driver for reducing cost and accelerating innovation, but current processes still suffer workflow inefficiencies and results often come too late in the design cycle – especially …
