“We use ANSYS software because we need to speed up our development process for new products by speeding up all phases of design. With simulation we can investigate inside our products virtually, not physically, and look at detail that would be impossible to evaluate otherwise. We can improve the efficiency of our products by investigating small changes in parameters and spend less time than we would for creating a real prototype and testing.” Matteo Cipelli Advanced Engineering COE Manager Lowara Srl capabilities — and without compromise. By reducing the overall time to a reliable solution, ANSYS...

In motorsports, accuracy can be the difference between winning and losing. Red Bull Racing Team won Drivers’ and Constructors’ championships by optimizing aerodynamics with the help of our CFD. Maximizing Flow and Velocity ANSYS solutions have emerged as the industry standard for CFD analysis, thanks to a unique combination of speed and accuracy. New product designs start to incur costs from the very beginning of the development process and, if all goes as planned, generate revenue only when they make it to market. This fundamental aspect of product development economics is painfully obvious...

There are no shortcuts in developing life-saving, precise medical devices — such as stents to keep blood vessels open — but there is a way to shorten process. Biomedical engineers turn to our software to explore issues such as cardiovascular flows and stresses, drug delivery systems and their travel paths through the body, and the velocities inside inhalers and other respiratory devices. As they explore novel composite materials and new designs for components such as landing gear, aerospace engineers must ensure that they are also maximizing aerodynamics, which leads to optimal range, efficiency,...
