Facilities and Resources for Design and Simulation

PEP's research department provides computer software packages and its experts' skills in design and optimization, to develop your projects and ensure your competitiveness.

The software packages used by PEP's design and simulation teams:

• Ansys: software package for analysing structures, vibration phenomena, mechanical constraints, etc.
  For further information: http://www.ansys.com/
• Catia V5: a Dassault Systèmes brand name that is a product design and innovation solution.
  For further information: http://www.3ds.com/fr/products/catia/portfolio/catia-v5/catia-v5r20/
• Comsol Multiphysics®: simulation software package for modelling processes. It enables users to define geometry, meshing and resolution, and then visualize the results. 
  For further information: http://www.comsol.fr/products/multiphysics/
• HyperMesh Altair: a finite element pre-processor for analysing product design performance (solid geometry modelling, shell meshing, model morphing, detailed model set-up, generating volumetric models).
  For further information: http://www.altairhyperworks.com/Product,7,HyperMesh.aspx
• Matlab: a scientific calculation language enabling computationally intensive tasks to be performed (developing algorithms and applications, analysing and accessing data, visualizing data, performing numerical calculation, publishing results and deploying applications, etc.)
  For further information: http://www.mathworks.fr/products/matlab/
• ModeFRONTIER: software package for multi-objective and multidisciplinary optimization and design.
  For further information: http://france.enginsoft.com/modefrontier/index.html
• Moldflow: simulation software package that is part of the Digital Prototyping Autodesk solution. It supplies tools for optimizing plastic component and injection mould design, and for studying injection moulding processes.
