Cadence has expanded its system analysis portfolio to build out a comprehensive Multiphysics platform including electromagnetics (EM), electrothermal (ET), and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solutions, and with BETA CAE, Cadence will enter structural analysis, the largest system analysis segment.

"ANSA is by far the best tetrahedral element meshing software that our lab has used for meshing complex biological structures.
ANSA is able to consistently and quickly create well shaped elements and provides nice gradients in element size between more refined zones and coarser zones. The other tetrahedral meshing packages that we have used created meshes with poorly shaped elements (i.e. slivers) and/or created gradients in element size that were too large. These types of meshes perform poorly when used for the highly deformable, nonlinear analyses needed for our biomechanics research. One of ANSA’s primary benefits is the ability to trim an imported surface mesh along a curve; particularly important when working with meshes created in segmentation software. Furthermore, the support of ANSA by BETA CAE is wonderful. Our questions have been answered quickly, clearly, and thoroughly.
The Musculoskeletal Research Laboratories greatly appreciates our working relationship with BETA CAE and uses ANSA for most of our biomechanics research requiring finite element analysis."
