Multi-Engineering Modeling
Virtual Prototyping has come a long way in recent years. Today, one can create more accurate simulations of the real world by looking at how products interact with tangible elements and how certain materials react to specific conditions. While this progress is impressive, it doesn’t end there.
Most products these days are complex, containing many different components made from a variety of different materials. This requires various engineering disciplines to get involved in the production process, hence the growing importance of multi-engineering modeling.
Multi-engineering modeling
The concept of multi-engineering modeling is important. First of all, it allows engineers from different backgrounds to come together and work in a collaborative virtual environment. Secondly, it makes it possible for those engineers to work as they would with a physical design. This way, they are able to bring their knowledge and expertise into this ‘test-like’ environment, ultimately creating higher quality products. These virtual environments also combine the different disciplines and allow modeling of different materials and processes to create a more accurate model of the real world, providing the feedback for engineers to develop more accurate prototypes.
A natural progression into multi-engineering modeling
ESI Group has long been a leader in the demanding world of virtual prototyping . They have a practical approach to developing solutions, making sure that applications are focused on real industry needs and deliver tangible business benefits. The company is active in a wide range of important industries, including aerospace, automotive, defense, energy and marine engineering. Experience in all of these fields has taught ESI that a collaborative and multi-discipline approach is vital in creating the best solutions. Therefore, it was a natural step for the company to quickly move into the world of multi-engineering modeling.
A pedigree in multi-engineering modeling
ESI Group has a long, proud history in virtual prototyping, leading to the latest generation of multi-engineering modeling software. The, now prominent, firm was originally formed by four UC Berkeley PhD graduates who first opened their doors in Paris, France. From humble beginnings roughly 40 years ago, the company has grown impressively, employing more than 1,000 top specialists and operating in 40 countries. With a strong record in providing innovative industry solutions, the future looks bright for ESI for the next 40 years and beyond.
