Real-time simulation that gives structural and fluid feedback while you model.
Why we recommend it
Immediate simulation feedback during modelling changes how design decisions get made — you see consequences before committing.
Strengths
- Simulation feedback in real time
- Approachable for non-analysts
- Backed by Ansys solvers
Drawbacks
- Quote-only pricing
- Real-time results are approximations
