With Abaqus/CAE you can quickly and efficiently create, edit, monitor, diagnose, and visualize advanced Abaqus analyses. The intuitive interface integrates modeling, analysis, job management, and results visualization in a consistent, easy-to-use environment that is simple to learn for new users, yet highly productive for experienced users. Abaqus/CAE supports familiar interactive computer-aided engineering concepts such as feature-based, parametric modeling, interactive and scripted operation, and GUI customization.
Users can create geometry, import CAD models for meshing, or integrate geometry-based meshes that do not have associated CAD geometry. Associative Interfaces for CATIA V5, SolidWorks, and Pro/ENGINEER enable synchronization of CAD and CAE assemblies and enable rapid model updates with no loss of user-defined analysis features.
The open customization toolset of Abaqus/CAE provides a powerful process automation solution, enabling specialists to deploy proven workflows across the engineering enterprise. Abaqus/CAE also offers comprehensive visualization options, which enable users to interpret and communicate the results of any Abaqus analysis.
Abaqus/CAE Add-Ons
CAD Interfaces
Abaqus can interact with CAD systems on different levels. Besides the ability to import and export standard CAD formats such as STEP and IGES, there are also geometry translators from CATIA 4 and Parasolid.
More advanced are the associative interfaces to leading CAD systems such as CATIA V5 and SolidWorks.
Composites Modeler
Composites Modeler for Abaqus/CAE complements and extends the powerful ply modeling features in Abaqus/CAE by providing proven fiber simulation capabilities and advanced model building—all seamlessly integrated within Abaqus/CAE.
Abaqus Knee Simulator
The Abaqus Knee Simulator is a validated computational modeling tool for performing basic to advanced knee implant analyses and simulations. It can help to gain a competitive advantage by using Finite Element Analysis to drive innovation, manage costs, and improve patient care.
