Altair Inspire Features
Industrial Design And Rendering
Altair Inspire enables users to blend multiple modeling techniques for effortless creation of complex geometries. Designers can produce visually stunning images and real-time animations with physically accurate lighting, helping teams better communicate design intent and evaluate aesthetics before production.
Dynamic Motion
Simulate real-world motion of assemblies with automatic contact and joint detection. Incorporate elements like springs, dampers, and actuators to test mechanism behavior, identify potential performance issues early, and ensure reliable functionality of your design under realistic operating conditions.
Structural Analysis
Perform linear static and normal modes analysis using advanced embedded solvers. Engineers can quickly evaluate multiple design variants from full CAD geometry while leveraging traditional finite element analysis (FEA) to validate detailed structural strength, durability, and overall mechanical performance.
Fluid Analysis
Enhance design efficiency with integrated computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tools for accurate fluid-flow evaluation. The software supports conjugate heat transfer simulations, enabling users to predict and optimize cooling effects and overall thermal management within complex mechanical systems.
Design For Manufacturing
Using Inspire’s comprehensive manufacturing simulation suite, teams can test product feasibility, optimize production methods, and run virtual tryouts for casting, forming, and 3D printing. Integrated material data ensures designs are optimized for both structural performance and manufacturability.
