Physics engineering simulation and 3D design.

Ansys is an engineering simulation software. It enables users to perform finite element analysis, computational fluid dynamics and multiphysics simulations to test and optimise product designs virtually.

Ansys supports functionality for structural analysis, thermal management, fluid flow, electromagnetics and electronics reliability, allowing researchers to predict how products will perform under real-world conditions without physical prototypes.
