Allied Engineering to Release Latest Version of Structural Analysis Software on October 1, Featuring AI-Powered Analysis Automation

The latest version will feature "AI Expert," a new function that automates the process from setting analysis conditions to executing the analysis and verifying results using natural language instructions. Designers can review analysis results through natural language queries such as "Where is the maximum stress?" Additionally, for analysis engineers, the feature assists in setting analysis conditions by identifying differences between the target model and similar past models. Through these capabilities, the company aims to eliminate the dependency on specific individuals for analysis tasks and expand the use of CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) among designers.

In terms of functionality, improvements in calculation algorithms have reduced the computation time for topology optimization. Topology optimization is a method to find a shape that achieves maximum stiffness with minimal material while satisfying load conditions; according to Allied Engineering, computation time can be reduced by up to approximately 15% compared to conventional methods, depending on the model. Furthermore, it is now possible to set natural frequency as a constraint in topology optimization, enabling designs that balance weight reduction and vibration performance.
