PITTSBURGH, May 23, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- ANSYS (NASDAQ:
ANSS) is integrating mission analysis into the engineering design
process thanks to a newly formed technology partnership with
Analytical Graphics, Inc. (AGI), the global leader in systems
and mission simulation. Through the partnership, AGI expects to
enable satellite, aerospace and defense customers to create more
precise and reliable modeling and mission simulations with greater
accuracy for complex scenarios, including aircraft missions through
contested airspace and satellites orbiting the Earth.
Today, systems engineers perform large-scale mission and system
simulations with parametric or reduced-order models to incorporate
electronic, fluid and mechanical components. Next-generation
physics-based modeling creates component models with improved
fidelity, precision and dependability to enable more sophisticated
levels of simulation and systems-of-systems simulation.
AGI and ANSYS are streamlining processes and interfaces by
incorporating highly accurate, ANSYS-generated engineering physics
component models within complete, large-scale mission simulation
scenarios in AGI's multi-domain mission analysis software, Systems
Tool Kit (STK). Engineers conducting concept development and
mission engineering activities will gain insights from simulation
generally only accessible during test and measurement processes.
Similarly, design engineers will now be able to simulate and
predict component performance within the system design at every
step in the design process.
"AGI is pleased to join forces with ANSYS as embedding
physics-based component models within large-scale mission
simulations delivers a major technological leap for our mutual
customers," said Kevin Flood, vice
president engineering at AGI. "Our marketplace is demanding radical
reductions in time to market. This partnership addresses
important root causes. Specifically, we are eliminating the tool
and process gaps between the concept-development,
systems-engineering, detailed-design, and system-operations phases
of large-scale programs. This step alone can dramatically
accelerate the timelines for the delivery of large-scale
systems."
"This partnership tightly integrates our cutting-edge,
industry-leading physics simulation products with AGI's
mission-level systems applications," said Shawn Carpenter, senior product manager for high
frequency, ANSYS Electronic Business Unit. "We are committed to
helping streamline the use of ANSYS component models within AGI's
next-generation simulations, supporting our mutual customers in the
space, air, land and sea domains."
