Simulation results accuracy depends highly on the method used for the analysis. As a result, simulation frequently faces credibility issues since not all engineers have the same level of experience needed to ensure the CAE model is done correctly the first time. Companies can eliminate this credibility gap through the use of Simulation Process Automation capabilities available in NX Lifecycle Simulation.
NX provides solutions that allow expert CAE users to capture, author and publish simulation processes to aid less experienced designers or engineers to accelerate the development process while ensuring modeling and results accuracy. Customize best practice ‘wizards’ to meet your specific CAE processes and design analysis requirements to ensure that the end user obtains realistic and reliable results. Simulation Process Automation frees up the CAE analyst’s time to carry out more difficult and complex analysis on the most critical tasks.
NX includes powerful journaling capabilities that allow CAE analysts to easily capture complex processes they are doing by hand. Analysts can then customize the captured process to generalize and distribute throughout the organization for reuse.

Wizards allow companies to create and customize specific process wizards to meet their digital product development requirements. Wizards help set new standards in fast and simple structural analysis for non-experts in simulation by providing users with clear and concise guidance to help guide them through quick and simple simulation process steps to safely and accurately analyze their designs using finite element analysis (FEA).
Automated simulation processes in NX can incorporate any third-party or in house CAE or non-CAE application into the process, and is not limited to NX applications alone. The ability to integrate third party applications into a simulation process allows you to realize even more returns on your existing investments.
