Let’s Learn Together: Durability Performance Engineer Role

By

This post is a continuation in a series about simulation on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform and some of the roles you can find there. This week we are focusing on the Durability Performance Engineer Role and how it enables design engineers to assess the structural performance and durability of products during the design process and intuitively guide design decisions.

Overview

Durability Performance Engineer enables design engineers to assess the structural performance and durability of products during the Design process and intuitively guide design decisions. It offers powerful and intuitive tools needed to perform sophisticated multistep structural simulations, powered by market leader Abaqus technology, as well as fatigue simulation to predict accurate fatigue lives.

Durability Performance Engineer is a comprehensive structural and fatigue analysis solution to assess the performance of products – early during the design engineering process – with confidence, accuracy, and speed. It delivers a unique, easy, and integrated workflow, allowing all engineers, to benefit from advanced simulation solutions. With SIMULIA Durability Performance Engineer, design engineers can quickly understand not only the structural integrity but also the durability of the final product to determine its performance in real life without requiring expensive prototypes and time-consuming physical testing.

Key Capabilities

Accurate stress: assess the product structural performance with the proven Abaqus technology under linear and nonlinear static, thermal, frequency, thermal-stress, linear dynamic, and quasi-static conditions.

  • Design for life: predict accurate fatigue lives with the proven fe-safe technology to guarantee your product durability
  • Easy to use: perform strength and durability assessment with a guided workflow, customizable, for fast adoption and reduced learning curve
  • Decide faster: share easily simulation results and collaborate on any design projects from anywhere
  • Save time: run simulation locally or remotely on the cloud up to 8 cores to free up your local machine resource
  • Possibility to scale up to high-performance computers (HPC) to solve large models
  • Perform seamless collaboration workflows with 3DEXPERIENCE® platform
  • Part of your SOLIDWORKS design workflow: connected and associative with SOLIDWORKS with the possibility to reuse SOLIDWORKS Simulation studies
  • Avoid late re-design, minimize physical tests, reduce warranty costs, extend life in service
  • Accelerate structural performance simulation with unique automated model creation for large assemblies
  • Accelerate design innovation by solving engineering challenges for your 3D design with full data associativity
Benefits
