Altair's architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) solutions offer unparalleled productivity for building and non-building structures with their advanced versatility, integration, and data management capabilities. Our analysis and design solutions simulate responses to a range of dynamic, nonlinear loading conditions, including wind, snow, water, seismic, blast, dead, live, and moving loads – all while ensuring design resiliency and regional code compliance. Extensive data transfer links enable seamless import and export cycles between analysis and design solutions, building information modeling (BIM) systems, and CAD platforms. Design and optimize concrete, steel, and mass timber structures for report-ready results. In addition, evaluate complex geometry and structural models that go beyond standard building code designs, ensuring strength and safety for any model.
Altair® S‑FRAME® allows civil and structural engineers to simulate the response to internal and external forces during and after construction. Regardless of geometric complexity, material type, loading conditions, or nonlinear effects, S‑FRAME analyzes structural behavior and generates reaction forces so users can optimize models while verifying compliance with regional design codes for steel, concrete, and/or multi-material structures.
Altair's advanced code-based design capabilities ensure users can design safe, stable, and resilient structures according to regional design codes. Design and optimize steel frame structures and composite floors with Altair® S‑STEEL™. Code check, design, and detail reinforced concrete frames, concrete slabs, concrete shear walls, and continuous concrete beams in Altair® S‑CONCRETE™'s easy-to-use design environment. Analyze and design deep and shallow foundations with Altair® S‑FOUNDATION™, and analyze and design hybrid mass timber-steel structures with Altair® S‑TIMBER™.
Create and examine structurally sound design for complex assemblies in minutes. Altair® SimSolid®'s faster, easier analysis capabilities for fully featured CAD assemblies and complex geometries enable design engineers, facade engineers, product designers, and architects to explore design alternatives at a fraction of the time needed for traditional FEA workflows. Combined with Altair® Inspire™ for topology optimization, Altair SimSolid's mesh-free analysis accelerates design decisions without the need for FEA expertise.
Altair® HyperMesh®'s advanced meshing and post-processing capabilities help engineers design structures with complex geometries, challenging loading conditions, or other design parameters not typically encountered in conventional construction. Mesh generation tools for shell, tetra, and hexa meshing ensure the high-quality model discretization needed to meet civil engineers' challenges. Perform design changes quickly via mesh morphing and geometry dimensioning to reduce meshing time. Integrated with Altair® OptiStruct®, a generative design tool for innovative, lightweight, and structurally efficient designs, users can optimize topology and weight according to multiple constraints, including traditional processes and additive manufacturing.
Altair's CFD and thermal analysis solutions enable architects, engineers, and construction professionals to build safer, more comfortable, more energy-efficient buildings that meet regulatory requirements and sustainability goals. Altair® AcuSolve® and Altair® SimLab® help engineers identify areas of high heat transfer or thermal bridging in building assemblies to improve insulation strategies and reduce energy loss. In addition, CFD solutions can evaluate solar radiation's impact on building surfaces and study shading strategies to minimize solar heat gain. In addition, users can optimize data center cooling systems by gaining insight into the airflow and temperature distribution patterns to reduce energy consumption and improve equipment reliability.
Altair Compose® is a math, programming, data analysis, and visualization resource accessible in a user-friendly, multi-language scripting environment. With extensive math function libraries, Compose lets users write, test, perform calculations, and automate workflows. With Altair® S‑CALC™, users can instantly compute numerous section properties for complex, built-up, or multi-material shapes for use in further analysis – all within an easy-to-use graphical environment.
Altair® Feko® helps users simulate wireless coverage for smart, connected buildings, campuses, or cities, making radio network planning more efficient. With the help of Altair® WinProp™ and WRAP, users can design a range of radio networks, including cellular (5G, LTE, etc.), Wi-Fi, public safety, point-to-multipoint communication, broadcast, both for terrestrial and satellite, evaluate co-site interference, and coordinate frequency allocations for spectrum management. Further Feko applications enable antenna design and placement to ensure electromagnetic compatibility (EMC/EMI), perform radar cross section (RCS), and scattering analysis.
Explore blast and explosion effects and high-velocity impacts for risk mitigation. Altair® Radioss® enables civil and material engineers to simulate these catastrophic events, predict damage, identify structural vulnerabilities, and optimize designs for maximum structural integrity under extreme loads. Faster and less expensive than destructive physical testing, Radioss gives engineers valuable insights that create safer structures.
Altair® Monarch® provides a no-code, automated data preparation solution for novices and experts alike. Quickly extract and combine data from disparate or semi-structured input formats such as PDFs, spreadsheets, and text files, as well as from structured sources like Big Data in an easy-to-use environment so that users can convert information into precise, error-free datasets in seconds. Altair® RapidMiner® reduces traditional data analytics and machine learning application barriers. Designed to be accessible for all user levels while remaining scalable, governed, and safe, Altair RapidMiner's low-code platform enables users to develop data pipelines and machine learning models without the need for in-house data science expertise.
