SimLab Insights

What is SimLab?

SimLab is a general-purpose CAE (Computer-Aided Engineering) environment developed by Altair Engineering. It's used for simulating the performance of complex assemblies. SimLab emphasizes automating simulation tasks, reducing the time and expertise required for tasks like meshing, model setup, and result interpretation. It can be applied to various types of analysis including structural, thermal, and fluid dynamics.
