Simcenter Multimech is a comprehensive, advanced multiscale material modeling and simulation platform designed for engineers, researchers, and scientists. It provides a suite of powerful tools and features to simulate the mechanical behavior of materials at various length scales, from the micro to the macro, using a range of different materials, including metals, polymers, ceramics, and composites. With Simcenter Multimech, users can perform a wide range of material simulations, including deformation, stress analysis, fatigue, fracture, and damage mechanics. It employs a variety of methods, including finite element analysis (FEA), molecular dynamics (MD), and Monte Carlo (MC) simulations, to provide accurate and reliable results.

One of the key features of Simcenter Multimech is its ability to model complex material properties and behavior at the microscale. It offers a variety of methods for representing the microstructure of materials, including voxel-based, mesh-based, and discrete element methods (DEM). These approaches enable the simulation of the effects of microstructural features, such as grain boundaries, voids, and inclusions, on the mechanical behavior of materials. Simcenter Multimech also offers advanced tools for multiscale modeling and simulation, which enable the seamless integration of microscale models with macroscopic models. This allows users to simulate the behavior of materials under a range of loading conditions, from the micro to the macro, while accounting for the effects of microstructure. Another key feature of Simcenter Multimech is its ability to handle complex material behavior, such as nonlinear viscoelasticity, plasticity, and damage. It employs a variety of constitutive models, including the Johnson-Cook, Gurson-Tvergaard, and Anand models, to accurately model the behavior of materials under different loading conditions. Simcenter Multimech also offers a range of advanced analysis tools, including sensitivity analysis and optimization, to help users quickly and effectively analyze and optimize their simulation results. It also provides a powerful post-processing environment that enables users to visualize and analyze their simulation data in detail.

In summary, Simcenter Multimech is an advanced, comprehensive material modeling and simulation platform that offers a range of tools and features for simulating the mechanical behavior of materials at multiple length scales. Its ability to handle complex material behavior and microstructural features makes it an invaluable tool for engineers, researchers, and scientists in a variety of industries.

    Finite Element Analysis (FEA)

    Simcenter Multimech offers the ability to perform detailed Finite Element Analysis (FEA) simulations. FEA allows engineers to analyse and predict the behaviour of structures and components under various loads, stresses and environmental conditions. The results of these simulations can be used to optimise the design of products and ensure they meet regulatory requirements.

    Multi-physics Analysis

    Simcenter Multimech also provides the ability to perform Multi-physics Analysis. This involves the integration of multiple physical phenomena, such as thermal, electrical and mechanical behaviour. By combining these different disciplines, engineers can gain a deeper insight into the performance of products and predict their behaviour in different environments.

    Material Modelling

    Material Modelling is another key feature of Simcenter Multimech. This allows engineers to simulate the behaviour of different materials, including their response to different loads, temperatures and environmental conditions. By using Material Modelling, engineers can optimise material selection and ensure that products have the desired performance characteristics.

    Lifecycle Analysis

    Simcenter Multimech also provides the ability to perform Lifecycle Analysis of products. This involves simulating the entire lifecycle of a product, from manufacturing and distribution through to use and disposal. By carrying out this analysis, engineers can identify areas where products can be optimised to reduce environmental impact and improve sustainability.

    Design Optimisation

    Using Simcenter Multimech, engineers can also perform Design Optimisation. This involves using simulation tools to evaluate different design options and identify the best solution in terms of performance, quality, cost and other factors. By optimising designs, engineers can create products that offer superior performance, efficiency and reliability.

    System Level Analysis

    Simcenter Multimech is also capable of performing System Level Analysis. This involves simulating the behaviour of complex systems, such as automotive or aerospace systems, and evaluating their performance under different conditions. By using System Level Analysis, engineers can identify potential issues and optimise system performance to ensure safe and reliable operation.

    Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

    Simcenter Multimech provides the ability to perform Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). This involves simulating the behaviour of fluids, such as air or water, and predicting their flow, pressure and temperature characteristics under different conditions. CFD is particularly useful in the design of products such as aircraft, ships and cars, where aerodynamics and hydrodynamics are critical factors in performance.
