Product Name:	ANSYS Electromagnetic Solutions
ANSYS enhanced the depth and breadth of its electromagnetic field solutions when it incorporated the industry-leading electromagnetic field solvers from Ansoft into the portfolio. These products cover the full spectrum of electromagnetic analysis and design. ANSYS electromagnetic solutions enable users to leverage best-in-class software technology to predict the behavior of electrical and electromechanical devices, eliminate prototype iterations, and deliver products to market faster. The ANSYS electromagnetics solution addresses the analysis needs of three distinct application areas: * Electromechanical: electric motors and generators, transformers, busbars, relays, solenoids, power electronics, MEMS and magnet design * High-speed electronic components: on-chip embedded passives, IC packages, PCB interconnects * High-frequency devices: antennas, RF/microwave components, EMI/EMC, biomedical devices ANSYS electromagnetics solution deliver tools to understand: * Device performance characteristics under applied excitations * Visualization of the electromagnetic field in and around a device * Joule heating effects and resultant temperatures * Force distribution and resulting deformation * Key design parameters: torque, force, resistance, inductance, capacitance, impedance, S-parameters and radiated fields/emissions
Product Name:	ANSYS Explicit Dynamics Solutions
When simulating events involving short-duration, large-strain, large-deformation, fracture, complete material failure or structural problems with complex contact interactions, there is an ANSYS explicit dynamics solution to meet any customer's needs. Almost no application is too severe to be simulated with a high-quality software tool from ANSYS. These explicit dynamics products from ANSYS take over where implicit dynamics leaves off.
Product Name:	ANSYS Fluid Dynamics Solutions
ANSYS fluid dynamics solutions is a comprehensive product suite for modeling fluid flow and other related physical phenomena. This software offers unparalleled fluid flow analysis capabilities, providing all the tools needed to design and optimize new equipment and to troubleshoot already existing installations. The ANSYS fluid dynamics suite contains both general purpose computational fluid dynamics software and additional specialized products to address specific industry applications. The general purpose fluid analysis tools are the renowned ANSYS CFX and ANSYS FLUENT products, now also available together in the ANSYS CFD bundle. ANSYS CFD provides access to an unprecedented array of fluid flow physics models, allowing analysis of equipment with a great deal of confidence. ANSYS CFD technology is highly scalable, providing efficient parallel calculations on thousands of processing cores. ANSYS CFD also includes the full-featured ANSYS CFD-Post fluid flow post-processing tool. This tool can be used for advanced quantitative analysis and high-quality visualizations. When ANSYS CFD is used in combination with ANSYS Mechanical software complex fluid–structure interaction problems can be solved. ANSYS fluid dynamics products have a high degree of interoperability, and are designed to be fitted efficiently in any company’s Simulation Driven Product Development processes.
Product Name:	ANSYS Multiphysics Solutions
Multiphysics simulation solutions from ANSYS allow engineers and designers to create virtual prototypes of their designs operating under real-world multiphysics conditions. As the range of need for simulation expands, companies must be able to accurately predict how complex products will behave in real-world environments — where multiple types of coupled physics interact. Industry-leading software from ANSYS enables engineers and scientists to simulate the interaction between structural mechanics, heat transfer, fluid flow and electromagnetics all within a single, unified engineering simulation environment.
Product Name:	ANSYS Structural Mechanics Solutions
Structural mechanics software solutions from ANSYS provide the ability to simulate every structural aspect of a product, including linear static analyses that simply provides stresses or deformations, modal analysis that determines vibration characteristics, through to advanced transient nonlinear phenomena involving dynamic effects and complex behaviors. All users, from designers to advanced experts, can benefit from ANSYS structural mechanics solutions. The fidelity of the results is achieved through the wide variety of material models available, the quality of the elements library, the robustness of the solution algorithms, and the ability to model every product — from single parts to very complex assemblies with hundreds of components interacting through contacts or relative motions. ANSYS structural mechanics solutions also offer unparalleled ease of use to help product developers focus on the most important part of the simulation process: understanding the results and the impact of design variations on the model.

Technology profile

ANSYS develops, markets and supports engineering simulation software used to predict how product designs will behave and how manufacturing processes will operate in real-world environments. The company continually advances simulation solutions by, first, developing or acquiring the very best technology; then integrating it into a unified and customizable simulation platform that allows engineers to efficiently perform complex simulations involving the interaction of multiple physics; and, finally, providing system services to manage simulation processes and data — all so engineers and product developers can spend more time designing and improving products and less time using software and searching for data.
