ANSYS, Inc. (ANSYS), incorporated on January 12, 1994, develops and globally markets engineering simulation software and services widely used by engineers, designers, researchers and students across a spectrum of industries and academia, including aerospace, automotive, manufacturing, electronics, biomedical, energy and defense.

The Company distributes its ANSYS suite of simulation technologies through a global network of independent resellers and distributors (collectively, channel partners) and direct sales offices in strategic, global locations. On August 1, 2012, the Company completed its acquisition of Esterel Technologies, S.A. (Esterel). In April 2013, it acquired EVEN - Evolutionary Engineering AG.

ANSYS Workbench

ANSYS Workbench is the framework upon which the Company's suite of advanced engineering simulation technologies is built. The ANSYS Workbench platform delivers unprecedented productivity, enabling Simulation Driven Product Development.

Multiphysics

The Company's multiphysics product suite allows engineers and designers to create virtual prototypes of their designs operating under real-world multiphysics conditions. ANSYS multiphysics software enables engineers and scientists to simulate the interactions between structural mechanics, heat transfer, fluid flow and electromagnetics all within a single, unified engineering simulation environment.

Structural Mechanics

The Company's structural mechanics product suite offers simulation tools for product design and optimization that increase productivity, minimize physical prototyping and help to deliver better and more products in less time. These tools have capabilities that cover a broad range of analysis types, elements, contacts, materials, equation solvers and coupled physics capabilities all targeted toward understanding and solving complex design problems.

Fluid Dynamics

The Company's fluid dynamics product suite offers modeling of fluid flow and other related physical phenomena. Fluid flow analysis capabilities provide all the tools needed to design and optimize new fluids equipment and to troubleshoot already existing installations. The fluid dynamics product suite contains general-purpose computational fluid dynamics software and specialized products to address specific industry applications.

Electromagnetics

The Company's electromagnetics product suite provides field simulation software for designing high-performance electronic and electromechanical products. The software streamlines the design process and predicts performance, all prior to building a prototype, of mobile communication and Internet-access devices, broadband networking components and systems, integrated circuits (IC) and printed circuit boards (PCB), as well as electromechanical systems such as automotive components and power electronics equipment.

System Simulation

The Company delivers a comprehensive system simulation capability that is ideal for the design of automated products. This collaborative environment leverages the Company's multiphysics, multibody dynamics, circuit and embedded software simulation capabilities, enabling users to simulate the complex interactions between components, circuits and control software within a single environment. These technologies provide a complete view into predicted product performance, which creates greater design confidence for engineers.

Apache Design Low-Power Electronic Solutions

The Company's suite of Apache software delivers power analysis and optimization platforms along with comprehensive and integrated methodologies that provide capabilities for managing the power budget, power delivery integrity, and power-induced noise in an electronic design, from initial prototyping to system sign-off. These solutions deliver accuracy with correlation to silicon measurement; the capacity to handle an entire electronic system including IC, package, and PCB; efficiency for ease-of-debug and fast turnaround time, and comprehensiveness to facilitate cross-domain communications and electronic ecosystem enablement.

Esterel Technologies SCADE Solutions

The Company's SCADE product suite is a formal, comprehensive solution for developing critical systems and automatic generation of embedded software, supporting the entire development workflow, from requirements analysis and design through verification, implementation and deployment. SCADE solutions easily integrate, allowing for development optimization and increased communication among team members.

Explicit Dynamics

The Company's explicit dynamics product suite simulates events involving short-duration, strain, deformation, fracture, complete material failure or structural problems with complex interactions. This product suite is ideal for simulating physical events that occur in a short period of time and may result in material damage or failure. Such events are often difficult or expensive to study experimentally.

Simulation Process and Data Management

ANSYS Engineering Knowledge Manager (ANSYS EKM) is a comprehensive solution for simulation-based process and data management challenges. ANSYS EKM provides solutions and benefits to all levels of a company, enabling an organization to address the critical issues associated with simulation data, including backup and archival, traceability and audit trail, process automation, collaboration and capture of engineering , and intellectual property protection.

High-Performance Computing

The Company's high-performance computing (HPC) product suite enables enhanced insight into product performance and improves the productivity of the design process. The HPC product suite delivers cross-physics parallel processing capabilities for the full spectrum of the Company's simulation software by supporting structural, fluids, thermal and electromagnetic simulations in a single HPC solution. This product suite decreases the turnaround time for individual simulations, allowing users to consider multiple design ideas and make the right design decisions early in the design cycle.

Geometry Interfaces

The Company offers comprehensive geometry handling solutions for engineering simulation in an integrated environment with direct interfaces to all CAD systems, support of additional readers and translators, and an integrated geometry modeler exclusively focused on analysis.

Meshing

The Company's meshing technology provides a means to balance these requirements, obtaining the right mesh for each simulation in the automated way possible. The technology is built on the strengths of algorithms, that are integrated in a single environment to produce the robust and reliable meshing available.

Academic

The Company's academic product suite provides a scalable portfolio of academic products based on several usage tiers: associate, research and teaching. The academic product suite provides entry-level tools intended for class demonstrations and hands-on instruction. It provides flexible terms of use and more complex analysis suitable for doctoral and post-doctoral research projects. The Company also provides a low-cost, problem-size-limited product suitable for student use at home
