The NX for Digital Lifecycle Simulation suite of CAE applications is core to NX and managed by Teamcenter. It is tightly integrated with NX Design and leverages all of the power of both the NX and Teamcenter platforms and development resources.

NX CAE delivers:

• Scaleable, High Performance CAE Technology
• Best-in-class geometry authoring and editing capabilities including automatic update in a multi-CAD environment
• CAE results are “current and in the design loop”
• Integrated NX Nastran and Multi-Physics solvers as well as design-integrated multi-body motion simulation
• NX Nastran solver technology which provides unmatched scalability for both engineering desktop performance as well as large-scale HPC Linux clusters
• Knowledge Driven CAE as a unified part of the NX Digital Product Development environment
• CAE Models, Results/Reports and CAE “Best Practice” processes managed within the context of a Teamcenter PLM Digital Product Development Environment
• A Teamcenter based collaboration scenario across a global organization and virtual supply chain
• The ability to work with geometry from all leading CAD tools
• Customizability for in-house CAE software by provideing NX-native environments for ANSYS, ABAQUS and NASTRAN; Extensive list of 3rd party integrations
• Support for industry standard CAD and CAE data exchange formats- Parasolid, IGES, STEP, STL, UNV, NBD, XML, JT for lightweight visualization & global design collaboration.
