Simcenter X Advanced fact sheet

How Simcenter X Advanced licensing works: named-user seats plus a shared token pool across Simcenter tools.
A nine-page fact sheet on the Simcenter X Advanced licensing model. Rather than describing one application, it explains how named-user seats combined with a shared pool of floating tokens give engineers access to Simcenter tools across CFD, mechanical, systems and multidisciplinary design analysis and optimisation (MDAO), and it lists the capabilities those tokens can activate.
What the document covers
- How named-user core seats guarantee access to pre- and post-processing, while solvers and advanced features are checked out from a global token pool and returned when the job ends
- Administration: assigning named-user licences and token pools to individuals or teams through the Siemens Software Admin Console, and installing applications from Siemens Software Center
- The main application in each domain: Simcenter STAR-CCM+, Simcenter 3D and Simcenter FEMAP, Simcenter Amesim, and HEEDS
- Deployment options: local installation with cloud-based entitlement, or running CFD jobs on Siemens-managed infrastructure using credits
- A detailed appendix of token-enabled add-ons, such as Simcenter Nastran solution sequences, durability, acoustics and motion modules, the MAGNET solver, Simcenter Amesim libraries and HEEDS optimisation modules
- Named-user add-ons such as Simcenter Amesim FMI export and the Simcenter Client for Git
Who it is for
Simulation managers, CAE leads and licence or IT administrators planning how to give distributed engineering teams access to several Simcenter domains.
