Smarter engineering decisions
Today’s companies want to accelerate
innovation by using simulation to evaluate
different design alternatives, conduct
experiments and gain new insights into
product performance. However, some
companies are unable to realize the full
potential of their simulation investments
because simulation continues to be
disconnected from mainstream product
development. The comprehensive set
of NX simulation tools enables you to
integrate performance simulation earlier
in the development process so you can
investigate more design options and make
smarter product decisions.
A modern CAE environment
NX CAE is a modern, multi-discipline
environment for advanced analysts,
workgroups and designers who need to
deliver high quality performance insights
in a timely fashion to drive smarter
product decisions. Unlike disconnected,
single-discipline CAE tools, NX CAE
integrates best-in-class analysis modeling
with simulation solutions for structural,
thermal, flow, motion, multiphysics and
optimization into a single environment. It
also seamlessly integrates simulation data
management into an analyst’s workflow
so that information is no longer lost
within some obscure hard drive. Finally,
NX CAE enables simulation-driven design
by giving companies the ability to expand
simulation to the design community and
increase collaboration between analysts
and designers.
NX for simulation
Advantages
• Reduce model preparation time
by 70 percent
• Shorten design-analysis
iterations
• Improve team productivity
through capture and re-use of
CAE best practices
• Evaluate design trade-offs
across multiple disciplines
• Validate and track performance
against product requirements
9. 9
Best-in-class analysis modeling
NX CAE drastically reduces the time
engineers spend preparing simulation
models. It delivers all the advanced
meshing, boundary conditions and solver
interfaces that are needed to conduct
high-end analysis. What makes NX CAE
different from all other preprocessors is its
superior geometry foundation, including
synchronous technology, which enables
intuitive, direct geometry editing. Coupling
that with an analysis model to design
geometry associativity means that analysis
models immediately update to the latest
design variant with little to no rework
required by the analyst. The tight integra-
tion of a powerful geometry engine with
robust analysis modeling commands is the
key to reducing modeling time by up to
70 percent compared to traditional finite
element (FE) modeling tools.
Multidiscipline simulation and
optimization
NX CAE delivers breadth and depth of
analysis capabilities through a single,
advanced simulation environment. Simula-
tion solutions available include structural,
thermal, flow, motion, optimization and
multiphysics analyses. The benefit of
integrating all these solutions is that engi-
neering departments can standardize their
tools on a single platform, which lowers
training costs and streamlines coupled and
multiphysics analysis workflows. Since all
the data is internal, there are no error-
prone and time-consuming data transfers
between software tools.
NX CAE supports other well-known solvers
so you can still leverage existing simulation
investments.
Advantages
• Defeature and prepare
geometry faster
• Quick, intuitive direct geometry
editing using synchronous
technology
• Comprehensive automatic and
manual meshing for 0D, 1D, 2D
and 3D elements
• Associate analysis model with
design geometry for rapid
updates
• Supports third-party solvers
Abaqus, ANSYS, MSC Nastran
and LS-Dyna
• Simulation solutions for
structural, thermal, flow,
motion, optimization and
multiphysics analyses
“ We can take our 3D model,
basically use that exact same 3D
model, just click a button on the
NX screen and we’re in stress
and strain analysis. Click anoth-
er button and we’re in a deflec-
tion analysis. Click another
button and we’re running flow
simulations. So being able to
integrate all those different
analysis tools right into our 3D
modeling software has benefited
us greatly as well.”

Systems-level modeling and simulation
Engineers are continually seeking to better
understand product performance at the
whole system level, and NX CAE delivers
methods that enable easier systems
simulation.
NX CAE is unique in the way it manages
large FE models. NX CAE uses a multi-level,
hierarchical structure, very similar to how
a CAD assembly is managed, to efficiently
build and manage large analysis model
assemblies. This allows engineers to
rapidly build FE assembly models simply
by referencing and instancing separate FE
components.
For mechatronic systems, NX CAE can
co-simulate mechanical systems combined
with control systems designed in Matlab/
Simulink.
Simulation data and process
management
NX CAE seamlessly integrates with
the simulation process management
module of Teamcenter. Simulation data
management capabilities can be used out-
of-the-box, and companies can implement
a complete environment for managing
CAE data, processes and workflow as
part of a wider product development
environment. This reduces wasted time by
promoting re-use of existing designs and
engineering knowledge. Simulation data
management also synchronizes simula-
tion with design and makes simulation
results readily accessible for data mining,
visualization and reporting.
NX Open, the common foundation for
automation and programming in NX,
can be used to create and automate
customized CAE processes to increase
productivity.
Advantages
• Efficiently build and manage FE
assemblies through a unique,
multilevel approach
• Speed solution times through
parallel processing
• Simulate mechatronic systems
• Simulation data and process
management
• Out-of-the-box integration with
Teamcenter
• Capture and automate repetitive
simulation processes
“ Our analysts are very excited
about being able to use synchro-
nous technology to defeature
models and get the geometry
down to what they need to build
a finite element model, a CFD
model or a thermal model.”

Simulation-driven design
Simulation has proven to be a time- and
cost-effective alternative to physical
testing – allowing more design options
to be considered in shorter time frames.
Today, companies are seeking to further
expand the use of simulation by bringing it
forward even earlier in the design process.
However, the challenge of implementing a
simulation-based design strategy includes
the absence of an engineering environ-
ment and process that can keep pace with
the design team.
NX CAE helps facilitate simulation-driven
design. Since NX CAE is based on the same
platform as NX CAD, simulation capabilities
easily scale to a designer’s environment
and expertise level, while still providing the
same trusted simulation technology used
by expert analysts.
CAE vision and heritage
Our vision is to deliver engineering
simulation solutions that drive product
performance decisions across the complete
product lifecycle.
Siemens PLM Software executes on this
vision by building upon our simulation
heritage that spans 40 years and encom-
passes well known industry brands, such
as Nastran for finite element analysis
and I-deas for integrated CAD and CAE.
Siemens PLM Software continues to invest
in advancing simulation technology and
today delivers NX CAE, a modern simula-
tion environment.
Advantages
• Same scalable technology
used by expert analysts and
designers
• Perform basic analysis within
designer’s CAD environment
• Make smarter engineering
decisions earlier
