3DEXPERIENCE SIMULIA

3DEXPERIENCE SIMULIA is a revolutionary platform for the simulation user and the enterprise. Customers today are demanding enterprise-wide and group-wide tools to enable extended teams to build and execute the most complex simulation models as part of high-value end-to-end industry processes, from requirements to design to engineering to manufacturing and ownership. 3DEXPERIENCE SIMULIA is the only suite of capabilities available today to support this need, taking simulation from vertical engineering function to a horizontal business process throughout the enterprise.

For Decision Makers and all users, 3DEXPERIENCE SIMULIA provides a framework for Simulation Data Science to democratize simulation, including best-practice capture, publication, re-use, and re-play. Available on mobile devices, this capability increases simulation quality and value, aligns simulation with business process and requirements, and increases the customer’s return on their simulation investment by bringing simulation into the core of the enterprise to improve decisions.

For the Designer/Engineer, 3DEXPERIENCE SIMULIA delivers an expanded portfolio of On Premise and On Cloud simulation roles geared for the occasional simulation user who wants to work within the design environment, yet benefit from the value of simulation to improve early design decisions.

For the Simulation Specialist, the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform supports structures, fluids & acoustics, electromagnetics, and multibody simulation. Existing simulation products, data, and IP can be integrated with platform simulation to eliminate traditional simulation silos due to the use of specialty tools. Native capabilities such as high-performance visualization for very large models, batch and rule-based meshing, and collaborative assembly are unique to 3DEXPERIENCE SIMULIA, providing additional capability, efficiency, and through-put

As an integral part of the Dassault Systèmes 3DEXPERIENCE Platform, simulation applications accelerate the process of evaluating and improving product performance, reliability and safety before committing to costly and time-consuming physical prototypes. We help our users meet their business goals, not only with market-leading simulation applications, but also through our global team of engineers who teach, mentor and support them in the use of our applications to reduce time and cost while delivering innovative, game-changing solutions to their customers.

Delivering New and Updated Capabilities to All Users throughout the Enterprise

Dassault Systèmes has delivered 3DEXPERIENCE Release R2026x to all customers, including enhancements for MODSIM (Unified Modeling & Simulation), CATIA & SOLIDWORKS designer simulation, including Cloud simulation flexibility and performance. Select enhancements include:

Physics Simulation Advisor is the role for interacting with AI-powered Virtual Twins Physics Behavior, which provides quick evaluations of the performance of a design to compare design alternatives or show the impact of a design change. The 2026x release sees enhanced management of favorite designs and access to requested KPI results from predictions.

Structural Analysis Engineer and other Structures roles have a new KPI-focused results exploration. This offers the ability to define simulation goals in the Physics Results Explorer and a user-friendly pass-fail view showing which goals have been met, in order to quickly identify problems and begin the investigation of the root cause of failures.

The Electromechanical Analysis Engineer also sees enhancements in the Physics Results Explorer, with the ability to easily measure the performance of an electrical machine from heatmap sensors, and a new link to SIMULIA Parametric Design Study. Users can now also visualize transient electromagnetic fields in linear actuators and similar machines, taking the motion of the device into account.

For the design and analysis of electromagnetic systems on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, the Electromagnetics Engineer role now enables the efficient conversion of electrical behavioral models for connectors into electronic logical components. The relationship between the logical and physical models can be easily managed on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.

The Fluid Dynamics Engineer role has seen several significant enhancements to its workflows and underlying technology. Applications that benefit from these problems include electronic cooling applications, with new electronics cooling component models, and centrifugal pumps, with the ability to simulate rotating geometry in the geometry-based workflow. Immediately assess product performance with a new KPI-centric approach to Results Exploration, introducing the new Goals command in Physics Results Explorer.

Motion Analyst, the role for multi-body system dynamics simulation, now has support for advanced flexible body damping capabilities in Motion Analysis and more advanced system excitation definition using knowledgeware design tables and user-defined formulas.
