Optimisation
|
Our design optimisation methods have been developed to deliver the ultimate in lightweight design. By working to the strict standards and timescales of Formula 1, we have applied our methods at the forefront of technology. Our products in this field cover all the optimisation methods expected of a leading software provider and consultancy.
GENESIS: A fully integrated finite element analysis / design optimisation software package. It allows for detailed analysis of design problems as well as topology and topometry optimisation capabilities to name just a couple. For more information on GENESIS and how it can optimise designs click here.
OPTIASSIST: A world leading composite optimisation tool developed specifically for the development of optimum carbon and other fibre lay-up designs. Utilising the discrete optimisation capabilities of VR&D GENESIS, GRM Consulting have developed a unique method for the lay-up optimisation of composite structures. OptiAssist has many features including composite optimisation, size and shape optimisation, composite laminate setup and composite concept optimisation.
TRUFORM: TruForm is an integrated Topology optimisation solution for Abaqus/CAE users. Powered by the industry leading optimisation solver, VR&D Genesis, TruForm provides a powerful optimisation method in an extremely simple and straightforward user interface.
VisualDOC: A software system that simplifies adding optimisation to almost any design task. It uses a powerful, intuitive graphical user interface along with state-of-the-art optimisation algorithms to set-up, solve, and post-process your design problem. For more information contact our support team.
DOT: DOT is a general-purpose gradient-based optimisation software library that can be used to solve a wide variety of optimisation problems. the updated version 6 has several new features for enhanced fucntionality. For more information contact our support team.
BIGDOT: BIGDOT is intended to solve very large, non-linear, constrained problems whether continuous, discrete or mixed variable. For more information contact our support team.
ABAQUS/DYNA Coupling: Supporting Topology, Sizing, Shape, Topometry & Topography optimisation, a new interface is available for VR&D GENESIS. This new Design Studio interface has direct coupling support for both DYNA and ABAQUS. For more detailed information about 3rd Party solvers and the benefits of coupling contact our support team.
