A Cadence Design Systems Case Study
A Squared Engineering, a marine engineering consultancy, faced challenges in providing efficient and comprehensive finite element analysis (FEA) for complex shipbuilding and offshore energy projects. Their previous FEA tool had limited capabilities, which prevented them from performing analyses as quickly as needed and restricted the types of analyses they could offer. They required more advanced computer-aided engineering (CAE) software with robust pre-processing and integrated solvers to meet strict regulatory requirements.
Cadence addressed this challenge by providing its MSC Apex unified simulation environment and MSC Nastran FEA solver. This solution dramatically accelerated A Squared Engineering's pre-processing capabilities, reducing engineering time and project costs. The integrated tools allowed for more accurate modeling and a wider range of analyses. As a result, the company can now deliver code-compliant designs more efficiently and offer its services at more competitive rates.
