My earlier post, “Industrial Strength: Part 1,” is about how we, at Dassault Systèmes, make our products more accessible to our users by sharing many common best practices across industries. In this post, I’ll discuss how the 3DEXPERIENCE platform is making it easier for industry teams to work smarter and easier with access to all the tools they would need!
Recipes for Success
We essentially provide our customers with pre-packaged recipes for getting directly to results without having to work their way up the learning curve. For example, automotive companies need the ability to manage very large models and assemblies with high-performance solvers for quick turnaround of simulations. Whereas in the medical field the greatest needs are working with highly complex materials including multiple physics, fluid-structure interactions and data management that fulfills FDA requirements. An automotive company clearly benefits from a different recipe than a medical device manufacturer. So how do you get started finding your solution-byindustry? Let us know and we’ll be happy to introduce you to the Industry Solution Experience (ISE) that fits your field. This provides you with a high-level, packaged subset of our overall product line that is appropriate for your business. An ISE can help you put together everything you need in order to maximize the value of your simulation investment, to win a competitive bid for new business, or to tackle whatever challenges keep you up at night.
Revolutionary Ease-of-Use
Of course you can still use Abaqus, Tosca, fe-safe, Isight and other SIMULIA tools as standalone best-in-class products for simulation analyst users. But we believe the advantages of moving to the full 3DEXPERIENCE Platform are compelling. Among them is that the 3DEXPERIENCE platform provides your team with truly revolutionary ease-of-use, through a customized graphical user interface easily personalized on your desktop and a single integrated underlying data and process management structure. Furthermore, through our processapps, you can integrate and automate your use of the various tools across all the Dassault Systèmes brands, seamlessly. For example, if you are working in SIMULIA and want to incorporate a CATIA function, or a BIOVIA material simulation, it’s all on a single user interface that gives you access to whatever tools you need, when you need them. If you’ve historically been using just one brand’s products, now you can just turn around and employ a different brand’s technology because it’s available through a single icon on your familiar user interface. It’s really quite incredible what you can accomplish these days!
Industry Solutions Supporting Product, Nature and Life
As our users know by now, we view simulation for product, nature and life as powering sustainable innovation. “Sustainable” of course implies business success! Dassault Systèmes delivers this power in the context of not only developing products, but also creating experiences that connect our customers with their own end-users, helping to secure those new business opportunities. This is where our end-to-end industry-specific workflows perform at peak for you, providing that single source of truth, collaboration with users and stakeholders, process management, link to requirements, conceptual design, design validation, manufacturing, marketing, and all the way to use by the ultimate consumer. These benefits are made possible by putting our multiphysicsmultiscale technology on a platform built for everyone, not just the simulation expert, to maximize collaboration and speed product development enterprise-wide. When you work within the industry solution that is a best fit for your company, you can accrue all the advantages of having simulation at the core of your business—and you can out-innovate your competitors.
