This post was created based on the expert advice of PADT CFD engineer and Project Lead, Nathan Huber. Simulating the behavior of liquids and gases has become a standard part of product development in products where fluid behavior plays an important role. Here at PADT, we have been using Computational Fluid Dynamics, or CFD, for […]
Simulation has been and continues to be a powerful tool for helping to drive innovation in the medical industry. Everything from medical devices, to hospital equipment, and even pharmaceutical and clinical practices can benefit from the introduction of simulation technology. This is true now more than ever, as the we all are facing such turbulent […]
Ansys Polyflow is a Finite Element CFD solver with unique capabilities that enable simulation of complex non-Newtonian flows seen in the polymer processing industry. In recent releases, Polyflow has included templates to streamline two of its most common use cases: blow molding and extrusion. Similarly, Ansys Discovery AIM offers a modern user interface that guides […]
Is your current prototyping process costing you more time and money than it should? Bring higher quality modeling in-house at your team’s elbow, and straight into the design process. Using traditional production methods is costing your product development teams time and money. Quality model shops have a long queue and large price tag, traditional modeling […]

When the virus that causes COVID-19 started to spread around the world, supply chains started to fail. The made access to personal protective equipment, or PPE, even more difficult. That is when Additive Manufacturing stepped up and said: “We can help.”Check now touroftoowoomba for upcoming updates. PADT held a panel discussion with three customers and […]
In 2017 Colorado based company Ursa Major Technologies put together an expert team of designers and engineers to realize its vision of providing the microsatellite industry with the best rocket engines in the business. Utilizing Ansys simulation software, additive manufacturing, and modernizing staged combustion, the company successfully designed and built two liquid oxygen and kerosene […]
There are three main goals of the licensing changes in the latest release of ANSYS: Deliver Ansys licensing using the FlexLM industry standard Eliminate the Ansys licensing interconnect Provide modular licensing options that are easier to understand Finally – and this is the whopper (or Double Double if you’re an In-N-Out kind of analogy person) […]
From perfecting products to applying concepts learned in the classroom, Stratasys can help you realize any number of design ideas. The new J55 introduces a rotating print platform for outstanding surface finish and printing quality, and features multimaterial capabilities and material configurations for both industrial and mechanical design. The Stratasys J55 3D Printer is a […]
