SimScale
Cloud-based computer-aided engineering (CAE) and simulation platform" From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Remove ads
SimScale is a computer-aided engineering (CAE) software product based on cloud computing. SimScale was developed by SimScale GmbH and allows computational fluid dynamics, finite element analysis, thermal, and electromagnetic simulations.[1][2] The backend of the platform uses both open source and proprietary simulation codes and AI surrogate modeling frameworks using Graph Neural Networks[3].

History
SimScale was founded by five graduates of TU Munich in 2012[4] and first launched online in 2013.[5]. In September 2024, the company announced that it had 600,000 registered users on its platform.[6]
Features
The thermal module allows uncoupled thermo-mechanical,[7] conjugate heat transfer and convective heat transfer simulations.[8]
Industrial applications
Japan-based Tokyowheel — a company that engineers technical carbon fiber racing wheels for competitive cyclists — used SimScale's CFD software component to determine the most aerodynamic wheel profile.[9] QRC Technologies performed thermal simulations on SimScale to test multiple variations of their RF tester.[10]
Community Plan
On 2 December 2015, a community plan was announced making the platform accessible free of charge, based on a new investment round led by Union Square Ventures.[11][12][13][14][15] It includes a one-time allotment of 3000 computation hours and 500 GB of storage for any registered user.[16] Simulations and projects created by a user registered under the plan are accessible to all other users within the public project library.[1]
