Attaining Nonlinear and Multiphysics Mastery for SMBs with SimLab and OptiStruct
A growing number of companies aspire to perform multiphysics, but each added analysis tool introduces new complexity to a development process. Model translation, remeshing, design modification – these tasks offer no added value and increase the likelihood of error. Altair SimLab enables users to model and solve multiple physics, including nonlinear analysis, within one unified platform. Each analysis runs from one master model, allowing you to spend less time prepping and more time solving. Join the webinar to see these powerful workflows in action.
In this webinar, we will demo the design of a smart speaker with an emphasis on nonlinear analysis, multiphysics, and improving perceived sound with vibro-acoustic simulation.
