a tool with various possibilities

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: For some time now we started with this wonderful tool, the 2d or 3d modeling necessary to give a broad vision to our designs facilitates the understanding of changes and errors that has been possible with the aforementioned tool, despite the short work time. we have been able to give it a usability that has sustained our expectations and objectives

Pros:

There's no other provider of software capable of giving this combination of CFD accuracy with the speed of a 1D model, so I can contribute my understanding of LTI ROM, which I believe is the key to making everything possible. My marketing team allows us to examine community data on what people enjoy, so that our game engineers may acquire data and approve it along with the LTI ROM together.

Cons:

The model export is difficult to generate for other software than Ansys. I believe this point is a huge waste of time because it is not even available to the developers on the team. The business could do better in this area.

validated simulation and perfect modeling

4.0 3 years ago

Comments: This type of simulation software is something we've used a lot, but for those just getting started, we think it's a great tool.
However, despite the fact that our employer is a major corporation, we believe that it is capable of supporting a smaller company as well.

Pros:

For designing, testing, and implementing simulation-based digital twins, it is an excellent option. Nevertheless, our IT and security team says that while learning the software takes time and is difficult for newcomers to grasp, our experience with it has allowed us to make prototypes and test theories that we can then apply to the financial market and networks where we work. Especially during testing to ensure the safety of consumer accounts.

Cons:

There were programmatic expectations that we would be able to pull simulation data from one financial program and apply it in another program, but this was not the case. Right now, I believe it is critical to address this matter immediately.

Real-time prediction of component behavior using a simulation tool

3.0 3 years ago

Comments: Because I work in the home appliances industry, the majority of my problems are with refrigerator components (Drawer body, bins, Glass shelves, Freezer door compartment, etc)

Pros:

One of ANSYS's strongest points is its user interface. When the proper inputs and boundary conditions are applied, products behave in a manner that is close to reality. ANSYS enables the execution of a wide range of simulations (Structural, thermal, fluid flow, etc)

Cons:

There is nothing I dislike about ANSYS its a simple tool.

simulators that help you design and test internal human resources policies

4.0 3 years ago

Comments: I believe that it is the pertinent advantage to build, validate and implement simulation-based digital twins to obtain a final product that satisfies our decisions, despite that the coordination of both IT and HR areas is far from simple, at working in a crossroads of departments there is no guide capable of determining an adequate workflow.

Pros:

Ansys Twin Builder, in my opinion, is a great tool for IT colleagues and HR departments alike. Cufflink models may be created in a matter of minutes because to its simple interface. Because of the app, the hospital's internal applications are progressing steadily forward.

Cons:

The models have a favorable consistency for the internal development ideas that HR provide in the hospital, be it simple solutions to counting budgets, hiring new personnel and allowing advantages to be generated on time. It has a fairly wide compatibility with libraries but these lately give errors.

For finite element method simulations.

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: I work as a Human Resource Generalist in a human resources company, what has been happening for years is that working within it together with the IT team we have realized that we needed our own software to protect specific tasks such as the search for personnel, sensitive data of our clients and for this purpose we create our own software and computer tools, to keep a good record. In this sense, ansys has helped us a lot with the AI it brings and the 3D modeling so that what we want to do is successful.

Pros:

the option of building and modeling digital twins has been extremely useful for our company, in the area of human resources we must always be at the forefront with programs that help us create better software. The simulation of our projects also runs very well in both windows and other operating systems or clouds.

Cons:

If the mesh is assigned wrongly, the simulation duration can be significantly increased.

Daily User Experience

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: It is a very efficient software for 1D system modeling, it is solving my what if question day to day

Pros:

One thing I want to point out is that the LTI ROM is really the key here that make everything possible, it is a unique technology that able to combine the accuracy of CFD model and the simulation speed of a 1D model which I don’t think there are any other software suppler in the market able to provide.

Cons:

It is hard to export model for another software that outside of Ansys to use
