Autodesk Simulation 360 cloud-based pay-as-you-go simulation platform

Autodesk, Inc has announced Autodesk Simulation 360 - a set of tools delivered securely in the cloud with a pay-as-you-go pricing model that enables any company to make simulation part of their everyday design and engineering processes.

Autodesk Simulation 360 is the latest offering to build on the Autodesk 360 cloud-based platform. By performing computationally intensive simulation tasks in the cloud, designers, engineers and analysts can test multiple ‘what if?’ design scenarios in parallel. The computational power of the cloud also eliminates the need for specialised hardware, thereby removing previous limitations and helping to increase productivity.

The Autodesk Simulation 360 software portfolio includes a wide range of cloud-based mechanical, fluid flow, thermal and plastic injection moulding tools. Additional benefits include direct geometry exchange; robust meshing tools; extensive material libraries; and proven solver technology to improve simulation accuracy in the areas of greatest concern.

In contrast to traditional perpetual licensing, Autodesk Simulation 360’s pay-as-you-go model simplifies access and offers better flexibility. Autodesk Simulation 360 is now available in English and is planned to be available in other languages in the near future.
