Akselos Integra® Updates Community Software With Stunning New Speed and Scalability
New Algorithms are 1,000 Times Faster than Conventional Finite Element Analysis (FEA) with Fully-Detailed 3D Simulations for Structural Analysis of Assets.
Lausanne, Switzerland, October 22, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Akselos S.A. brings breakthrough technology to the Computer-Aided Engineering world. Akselos’s patented algorithms, commercialized under an exclusive MIT license, enable an increase in simulation speed of 1,000 times compared to the best FEA software . Today, Akselos announces the release of version 2.2 of Akselos Integra®, its leading asset monitoring software. This new version brings top-notch new features developed through a long-standing collaboration with Akselos industry partners – market leaders in the mining and oil & gas industries.
The front-end is a lightweight Graphical User Interface (GUI) that can be downloaded and installed in two minutes. The GUI sends the solve requests to Akselos's cloud-based HPC (High-Performance Computing) simulation back-end, providing engineers with full-3D results in seconds. The new GUI version is capable of handling much larger models and the initialization of the cloud-based solvers has been sped up by a factor of 50 compared to the previous version. With Akselos Integra® 2.2 models with 500 million degrees of freedom (FEA equivalent) can be solved in 3 minutes via Akselos’s simulation engine deployed on Google Compute Engine.
Akselos's cloud-based RB-FEA platform enables fully-detailed structural analysis of large models orders of magnitude faster than conventional FEA, which is a game-changer of design and assessment of large-scale infrastructure. At the same time, RB-FEA retains full compatibility with conventional FEA, so users get access to a scalable and efficient cloud-based platform that provides the best of both worlds.
Dr. David Knezevic , Akselos CTO
To accomplish this milestone release, Akselos relies on a one-two punch: the Production Team based in Ho Chi Minh City and the Development Team based in Boston.
- The Akselos’s Production Team is directed by Dr. Phuong Huynh, a Springer CSE Prize winner. This department provides FEA models for Akselos’s industry partners and serves as a test lab for the Software-Development Team. This synergistic feedback loop allows developers to focus on addressing real engineering pains. The GUI released today has all these pain-killer features designed for and with engineers.
- By releasing the GUI to the community, Akselos has opened a channel of communication for further testing and feedback from simulation enthusiasts. This will continue Akselos’s development of user-friendly software with revolutionary power.
