Software & Applications

With proven accuracy every time, Altair offers industry-leading engineering analysis and optimization tools, from simulation-based design concepts to detailed virtual product validation and simplified modeling workflows to advanced high-fidelity model building. Whether large or small, our clients trust their decision making to Altair, the pioneer of simulation-driven design.

Altair offers a unique set of simulation tools for evaluating product feasibility, optimizing the manufacturing process and performing virtual testing for many traditional, subtractive and additive manufacturing processes. Users can validate designs early in the manufacturing process thanks to flexible and affordable simulation software, as well as use optimization technology with specific manufacturing constraints to design better, more efficient products.

Whether you are an analyst performing advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling or a design engineer who needs to quickly understand the fluid or thermal effects in a design proposal, Altair offers a full suite of tools to support your project. From detailed component analysis to full system performance, Altair provides a range of scalable solvers in Altair CFD™, as well as powerful pre- and post-processing software for CFD.

Altair software is used across industries to solve a wide range of electromagnetic problems, from static to low and high frequencies, as well as to simulate magnetostatic, steady-state and transient conditions.

In the era of smart connected devices, Altair’s simulation tools enable engineering teams to collaborate on all stages of ESD design, from chip-to-package, to printed circuit board and system; simplifying the process, eliminating iterations and reducing time to market.

Multiple design scenarios can be simulated quickly under real-world conditions. Early CAD models can be used, in any common format. Altair SimSolid®’s tolerance of inaccurate geometry means that, unlike CAD-integrated simulation tools, there is no need to simplify complex geometries before analyzing designs. Altair SimSolid® supports all standard connections (bolts/nuts, welds, welds, rivets, slip) and analysis of linear static, deformation, thermal properties, along with more complex coupled, non-linear, transient dynamic phenomena. Providing the simulation power for faster engineering decision making, it helps develop quality products faster than competitors in the market.

Altair’s industrial design tools enable designers, architects, and digital artists to create, evaluate, and visualize their vision faster than ever before. Focus on ideas rather than being held back by software tool deficiencies, and unleash creativity with design software that allows the user to model freely, make changes effortlessly, and render beautifully.

Flexibility and data integration increase productivity for building and non-building structures. Altair’s structural analysis and AEC design solutions simulate responses to wind, snow, water, seismic blasts, dead, live and moving loads, or other dynamic, nonlinear loading conditions, while ensuring design robustness and regional code compliance. Extensive data transfer links manage sequential import and export cycles between analysis and design solutions, building information modeling (BIM) systems, and/or CAD platforms. Design and optimize concrete, steel, and timber to regional codes, generating ready-to-use results for all structural elements in a model.

In the data center and cloud, Altair’s industry-leading HPC tools enable you to organize, visualize, optimize, and analyze your most demanding workloads, easily migrating to the cloud and eliminating I/O bottlenecks. From Top500 systems to small and midsize computing environments, Altair is the go-to solution for your infrastructure. With long-standing partnerships with hardware and cloud providers, we handle the integrations for you so your team can focus on driving the business forward.

Data is unique and can be used over and over again. However, its value depends on how you leverage it. Altair harnesses the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to enable businesses to gain competitive advantage and achieve superior results. By seamlessly integrating AI into design and simulation tools, it accelerates innovation and empowers teams with high-performance computing (HPC) resources and human expertise.
