Make great products by delivering better designs quickly.Learn how trusted, accurate results with Simulation software can help you make great products and gain a competitive advantage.
Deliver better designs more quickly and make great products with Autodesk Simulation software, part of the Autodesk solution for Digital Prototyping. Predict product behavior, test innovative concepts, and optimize designs early in the design and engineering process. Validate products to better understand the implications of your design choices—before manufacturing.
Our simulation portfolios:
Mechanical simulation
Use comprehensive Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to predict product performance through linear, nonlinear, thermal, and dynamic analysis. Optimize designs and validate product behavior before manufacturing.
Moldflow simulation
Simulate your complete plastic injection molding process and optimize your part design, mold design, and manufacturing process. Create high-quality plastic products correctly, the first time, and avoid potential manufacturing defects, getting you to market quickly.
Composite simulation
Design laminates and reduce testing and weight through simulation of composite materials. Simulate laminate and component behavior using simple structural solutions. Rule out failure modes and determine failure loads with robust and efficient plugins for finite element analysis.
CFD simulation
CFD and Flow Design software provide accurate and flexible fluid flow and heat transfer analysis. Solve, analyze, and make decisions earlier in the product development process.
Structural simulation
Advanced building simulation and structural analysis help you determine the effects of loads on simple and complex structures. Access global databases to see if your structure designs meet required codes and materials.
