Drilling and production equipment and transportation infrastructure is continuously subjected to severe loading conditions and any disruption to operations can lead to expensive shutdowns. Hence extensive testing early in the design cycle is critical. However, it is not only expensive for exhaustive physical testing, but could also be hazardous to test engineers because of the need to recreate the harsh field conditions.
MSC.Software provides simulation solutions that can provide the benefits of accuracy, completeness and safety. With capabilities to simulate control systems, multi-body mechanical systems, and structural assemblies, MSC’s solutions not only provide a comprehensive set of tools, but also an integrated multidisciplinary solution for improved accuracy.
