Simscale

SimScale is a fully cloud-based computer-aided engineering (CAE) platform designed for running complex simulations directly in a web browser. It enables engineers and designers to perform CFD (computational fluid dynamics), FEA (finite element analysis), and thermal simulations on CAD models without local high-performance computing infrastructure. The primary purpose of SimScale is to make advanced simulation accessible, scalable, and collaborative throughout the product development process.

Key features include support for a wide range of physics, such as fluid flow, structural mechanics, heat transfer, and conjugate heat transfer, as well as multiphysics workflows. Users can import CAD from common formats, clean and prepare geometry, define materials and boundary conditions, and run parametric studies to compare design variants. The platform provides automated meshing, solver configuration templates, and post-processing tools for visualizing results, including pressure, velocity, stress, and temperature fields. Being cloud-native, SimScale allows simulations to be run in parallel, scaling compute resources on demand, and supports team collaboration with shared projects and version control.
