ANSYS VRXPERIENCE Driving Simulator Powered by SCANeR provides the capability to prepare advanced scenarios and run simulations including events, surrounding traffic and vehicle dynamic with complete and accurate multi-body vehicle dynamics. With ANSYS VRXPERIENCE Driving Simulator Powered by SCANeR, users will reduce physical testing and shorten the time to market by testing the autonomous driving systems in a digital framework.

Streamlined Safety Testing and Analysis

With the ANSYS^® medini analyze and SCADE^® families, users are enabled with new capabilities that allow them to ensure the digital safety of their embedded systems and software applications. The new ANSYS^® SCADE^® Test™ model coverage feature divides the testing effort relative to structural coverage achievement — thanks to model-to-code coverage. Unique in the embedded software market space, model-to-code coverage requires only one execution, one acquisition, one level of justification and one review. The software is also 10X faster than previous versions.

ANSYS SCADE Test for SCADE Suite^® is ready for qualification under DO-178C and for certification under ISO 26262, IEC 61508, or EN 50128. The resulting qualification credits enable users to avoid lengthy and costly reviews and verification activities when certifying and qualifying their safety-critical products.

The innovations in SCADE^® Solutions for ARINC 661 Compliant Applications provide users with up to 40% efficiency improvement in widget and graphical server creation, thanks to the new ARINC 661 Server Creator UI. This user interface allows for a streamlined ARINC 661 widget and server creation and customization process.

"Rail-Mil is currently developing the first communication-based train control system for Poland and has chosen ANSYS to help deliver on this business initiative. This project is aimed at increasing railway system capacity while maintaining existing safety levels," said Slawomir Jasinski, CEO, Rail-Mil Poland. "As we develop onboard systems for trains, the intelligent solutions we use have to be reliable and safe, as any issue could lead to serious consequences. We selected ANSYS SCADE as it is the best software in the market to speed up embedded software development and ensure compliance with EU regulations."

ANSYS^® medini analyze fully supports the FMEDA safety analysis on the semiconductor level including verification of safety mechanism coverage data by fault injection. This enables our customers to comply with ISO 26262:11 2018.

New Features for System Simulation and Digital Twins

ANSYS^® Twin Builder™ 2019 R2 enhances Modelica workflow capabilities, making it easier for users to quickly implement and edit Modelica components in their systems designs. Support for undo-redo and a new array connector dialog box are a few of these new capabilities. New solver performance enhancements in the product improve performance by up to 30%.

Multiphysics Performance Improvements

In the multiphysics suite, all multiphysics simulation cases that use System Coupling benefit from performance improvements of 3X for the coupling engine — increasing overall run times by 20% or more. With the update, users can run mixed steady-transient analyses, which increases simulation efficiency when modeling a multiphysics application with fast physical effects on one side and a slower response on the other. The "fast" physics can be run as steady-state and the slower response as transient.

More Comprehensive and Insightful 3D Design Exploration

ANSYS® Discovery™ continues its award-winning momentum to bring simulation upfront in the design process and simulation insight to every engineer. In this release the designer use cases are expanded with live thermal stress and electrical conduction simulation.

Engineers need to evaluate a broad spectrum of product behaviors as they develop their designs, and ANSYS Discovery features industry-leading breadth of phenomena with unparalleled speed and ease of use. This release also delivers more insight from the simulations, through a new interactive legend, improved result controls and enhanced immersive interaction with 3D simulation results. While still in beta, generative design capabilities take a step forward with options for getting results back to surface-based CAD models.

Faster and Easier Additive Manufacturing

ANSYS Additive Prep, built right into ANSYS^® SpaceClaim^®, makes orienting parts and creating advanced support structures easy. New heat maps give fast feedback on optimal supports, distortion tendency and build time while native support generation tools are fast and easy to use.
