LMS Imagine.Lab AMESim R11

The integrated platform for 1D multi-domain system simulation. Enabling intelligent system simulation. Today intelligent system integration is driving improved product performance and delivering innovative designs in a variety of industries. Recent surveys show that approximately 80% of the next-generation systems and products will be derived from so-called intelligent systems. One of the most common examples is the advanced injection and control systems essential to clean-running and fuel-efficient car engines. But it is not only the automotive industry that is investing heavily in the intelligent system design trend to reach new targets for vital attributes like safety, comfort and, of course, driving pleasure. Active systems are running everything from key operating and safety mechanisms in the latest airplanes to “smart” packaging machines, hyper-speed printing presses, power-packing excavators and highly-efficient wind turbines. Intelligent systems clearly are essential when designing cost-efficient products with higher productivity levels and superior reliability.

Meeting strategically critical engineering challenges
How can an engineer pro-actively incorporate functional performance into an intelligent system? Especially a system with complex interaction between mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, thermal and electric/electronic components and subsystems?

This is exactly the beauty of LMS Imagine.Lab AMESim. This 1D simulation platform simplifies multi-domain integration using an easy-to-use simulation process. All engineers need to do is connect various validated components to simply and accurately predict multi-disciplinary intelligent system performance.

With extensive dedicated libraries totaling more 3,500 components, LMS Imagine.Lab AMESim actually saves enormous amounts of time by simply eliminating the need for extensive modeling. Thanks to its application-specific simulation capabilities, engineers can assess a variety of subsystems in multiple physical domains.
