Simcenter Amesim fact sheet

This three-page fact sheet, dated 2021, gives a compact introduction to Simcenter Amesim, the mechatronic system simulation platform. It explains why evaluating system performance at the concept stage, before detailed design, makes defects cheaper to fix, and summarises the platform's main building blocks.

What the document covers

• Fifty ready-to-use multi-physics libraries with more than 6,500 components covering electrics, mechanics, hydraulics, pneumatics, controls and thermodynamics
• Application and industry solutions for automotive, aerospace, industrial machinery, heavy equipment, energy and utilities, consumer products and marine
• Analysis tools: plots in the time and frequency domains, 2D and 3D animation, linear analysis, design of experiments and optimisation
• The ROM Builder option for creating reduced order models for faster simulation, real-time use and control synthesis
• Custom apps that import parameters from Excel or data files, run simulations and launch postprocessing scripts
• Connections to Simulink, FMI, Modelica, CAD import, embedded CFD, real-time targets, other Simcenter tools and Teamcenter

Who it is for

System simulation engineers, controls engineers and architects who need to size and balance multi-physics systems early in development. Readers wanting the full portfolio should see the larger Simcenter systems solution guide.
