CLIFTON PARK, NY, June 3, 2008 – Simmetrix Inc., the leading provider of component software for simulation-based design and CAD/CAE integration, today announced the release of Simulation Modeling Suite 6.3.

To keep pace with the ever-expanding needs of the CAD/CAE market, Simmetrix continues to respond with new innovations included in the recently released Simulation Modeling Suite 6.3. One significant enhancement is the extension of Abstract Modeling to include Simmetrix’ innovative Abstract Reasoning methodology. The result of this enhancement is the ability to minimize the requirement for entity tagging in the source system. This revolutionary approach to analysis modeling provides necessary support to Simulation-Based Design, Design Space Exploration, Robust Engineering, and Simulation Data Management.

A second significant enhancement is the definition of simulation-related model data which provides required data often missing in design data (e.g., capping faces, bounding boxes, bounding spheres, bounding cylinders, etc.). Combined with Simmetrix’ unique capability to create inverse volume data, this is a significant breakthrough for utilizing mechanical assembly data for far field physics simulations such as Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), Electro-Magnetic (EM), Radiation, and many others.

Another significant enhancement is the availability of multi-threaded and MPI-based parallel mesh generation providing scalable performance for increasing mesh size requirements from millions to hundreds of millions of elements (or cells). The multi-threaded meshing technology allows for ongoing meshing performance improvements based on today’s multi-core desktop workstation architectures.

“Simulation Modeling Suite 6.3 is an amazing breakthrough release offering the most comprehensive toolkits available today for simulation modeling,” says Joe Walsh, VP of Business Development at Simmetrix Inc. “The extended geometry support, the introduction of parallel mesh generation and the definition of simulation-related data in this release provides our licensees with unprecedented capabilities for development of advanced simulation applications.”

Other enhancements to the geometry access technology include enhanced assembly modeling, upgraded modeling kernel interfaces, extended CAD interfaces, and improved use of discrete (STL, mesh, or other facet) data as geometry. GeomSim CAD interfaces have been extended to now include Pro/ENGINEER, Wildfire, NX, and SolidWorks. The ability to support access and modification of features and associated parameters has also been introduced. The interfaces to ACIS, Granite, and Parasolid have also been updated to support current releases of these kernels and the use of discrete data as geometry has been improved to support approximate curvature for meshing along with improved topology detection.

Other enhancements to the mesh generation technology include expanded use of reduced mesh data structure for a smaller memory footprint, enhanced growth rate control, improved extrusion meshing, improved boundary layer meshing, improved mesh smoothing / optimization, support of curvature-based refinement for Discrete models, meshing of Assembly Models / Imprinted Assembly Models, and many more.
