IronCAD Integrates AMPS for Multi-Physics Simulation

ironcadlogoATLANTA, GA, Apr 28, 2015 – IronCAD, a leading provider of design productivity solutions, today announced an exciting upgrade of their integrated Multi-Physics (MPIC) solution from AMPS. The feedback from users and partners adopting the solution has been phenomenal. Real world experience with the combined pre- and post-processing environment has dramatically improved performance of “what if” analysis.

MPICThe integration also promises to speed up first time user acceptance and it provides existing users with an intuitive, unified interface. The newest MPIC version takes advantage of multi-core multi-CPU systems using an advanced lock-free multi-thread pool design which promises considerably faster analysis results. IronCAD’s innovative design with integrated feature and direct geometry modification, tight FEA integration and tolerant meshing allows users to work with imprecise models thus reducing the time spent repairing minor design flaws. After evaluating FEA results, users can further optimize their models even if they are working on CAD data from a different vendor.

The latest MPIC integration employs Sefea (Strain Enriched FEA), a proven method developed by AMPS Technologies Co. and presently available only in AMPS products. This new technology promises reduced memory load and radically reduced analysis time.

Mr. Max Schautzgy of Speedy Engineering had this to say, “I am really fascinated with the analysis speed paired with high accuracy that I get by using the Sefea method. In other FEA programs, I have to use smaller elements with more nodes to achieve desired results. Sefea allows us to analyze much larger assemblies without having to wait for results – and all this without sacrificing accuracy.“

Cary O’Connor VP marketing for IronCAD added, “IronCAD’s Innovative Design and tightly integrated FEA makes it easy for designers to test and verify design concepts during the development stage. Our MPIC solution is simple to learn and it does not require our users to spend hours preparing models for FEA. Users simply design assemblies and at a push of a few buttons can apply materials, loads/constraints, and perform the analysis while the system takes care of many of the tedious tasks in traditional FEA applications.”
