 | | | Shared analysis tools for improved product quality |  Are you looking for a structural analysis solution that addresses both simple and complex analysis and is easy to use across your design and analysis teams? Structural analysis solutions were developed to provide a common tool with the same interface across virtually all design and analysis applications, significantly improving communication between experts in different disciplines. |
| | | | Why IBM? | IBM offers the solutions you need to transform standard computer-aided design and product data management implementations into a true, product lifecycle management engine for innovation.
Our structural analysis solutions are built leveraging CATIA V5 from Dassault Systemes and other IBM Business Partner solutions. With CATIA, IBM can provide a total solution to customers, solving process problems and improving overall company productivity. - CATIA helps serve the needs of more than 24,000 customers and has more than 180,000 seats in daily production.
- CATIA is now used by 19 of the top 30 global automotive manufacturers and is the de facto global standard in automotive manufacturing.
- Many industry leaders use CATIA to further augment the efficient exchange of data with suppliers and manufacturers.

| | | | Structural analysis for your industry | Structural analysis solutions can allow your design team to structurally check their model before sending it to the analysis team, which saves time in the development process. Our solution is also designed to allow both design and analysis teams to use a standard common tool, eliminating the need for file conversion between each stage of development.
The impact of design changes can be rapidly reassessed with automatic updates. The wide range of analysis and simulation provided by CATIA V5 and our Business Partner solutions can meet your specific needs. - Permit a wider number of mechanical behavior and sizing assessments of parts and assemblies earlier in the product development process with faster design and analysis loops.
- Achieve highly sophisticated design optimization by capturing and studying the knowledge associated with your part design and analysis.
- Balance accuracy and speed in the design process with a robust built-in finite element solver and mesh generator.
- Improve productivity and user acceptance with an intuitive interface best suited to the needs of the designer, design engineer and analyst.
Our solution meets the structural analysis needs of various industries, including: - Industrial machinery
- Industrial components
- Consumer goods
- Electrical and electronic
- Automotive
- Aerospace

| | | | IBM implementations | Structural analysis solutions empower design to verification, manufacturing to marketing, and purchasing to field support to work faster and smarter.
IBM helped a company that produces suspension and joints worldwide reduce their production cycle. The company was experiencing low speed and long production cycles. IBM proposed CATIA V5 Analysis. Due to the new IBM solution, the production cycle was reduced from one to two months to three to four days.
In another example, IBM helped an aircraft parts design company to enhance its design skills and win a major account. The company faced the problem of having to use data translation modules with Airbus, sometimes losing data in the process. After implementing our solution, the company reached its objective of becoming a preferred supplier in the Airbus supplier chain. |
| | | | Go to market faster | The wide range of capabilities provided by structural analysis solutions used earlier in the design cycle can help your company: - Improve time to market with new products, increasing your revenue streams.
- Reduce product recalls and design errors with better quality designs.
- Decrease production costs with fewer physical prototypes.
