Simulation & Modelling

Model it.
Understand it.
Build it right.

Before we design, we model. Our Model-Based Design approach means that simulation drives every engineering decision, from feasibility to detailed design. At each step, Model-in-the-Loop testing verifies that the system behaves as intended, so hardware is only built once we are confident it will work.

01.

Simulate before you build

Validate performance, thermal behaviour and structural integrity before any hardware is committed — saving cost and development time.

02.

Physics-based precision

From static stress to eigenfrequencies and multi-domain dynamics —  answer the questions that matter at design time based on data.

03.

From model to hardware

Model-in-the-loop and hardware-in-the-loop testing bridge simulation and the real machine — so commissioning holds no surprises.

What we offer

SERVICES
01
Multiphysics & system analysis

Complex machines rarely fail in a single domain. We build high-fidelity multi-domain models of your mechanical, electrical, thermal subsystems, even including friction or hysteresis models. They are integrated into one co-simulation environment so their interactions are captured from the start. We model your complete system and predict behavior under real operating conditions before any hardware is built.

These physics-based models, also called digital twins, let us explore design choices in simulation, quantify trade-offs between performance and cost, and verify control strategies early. They remain valuable throughout the entire lifecycle of your system: the same model fuses measurement data to monitor performance, diagnose issues and refine control continuously.

Structural & thermal analysis

We set up and run finite element analyses using industry-standard solvers such as Ansys evaluating mechanical stress, deformation, heat transfer and contact behavour under real load cases. Whether you need a quick design check or a full analysis, we tailor the model to your requirements and deliver clear results.

For thermal problems we combine FEM with lumped-parameter models where appropriate, giving you the right level of fidelity for your application without unnecessary computation overhead.

Dynamic analysis

Full FEM models are too large for control design or real-time simulation. We extract data from FEM, then construct a compact reduced-order state-space model that preserves the input–output dynamics relevant to your application. In this way we reduce thousands of degrees of freedom to tens of states.

This enables rapid assessment of floor vibration sensitivity, dynamic decay, imposed accelerations and displacement responses. The result is a model fast enough for real-time digital twin use, model predictive control and detailed mechatronic system analysis.

Design optimisation

Once a model is built, it becomes a powerful tool for systematic optimization. We run parametric studies and design iterations to explore the performance space identifying the configuration that best balances stiffness, weight, thermal behavior, or any other parameter depending on your requirements.

Rather than converging on a single design through intuition, we map the trade-off landscape: lighter components that still meet stiffness targets, motion profiles with reduced cycle time and lower jerk, thermal stable system. The model does the iteration, you make the decisions.
