CIVAnde ® NON DESTRUCTIVE EVALUATION

CIVAnde ® State of the art simulation software for Non Destructive Evaluation >>>

CIVAnde is a unique solution to simulate, postprocess (imaging and analysis) and compare virtually any type of ultrasonic and eddy current non destructive evaluation (NDE) device or process.

Due to the method used and its high level of integration, CIVAnde’s simulations are intrinsically fast. Totally dedicated to NDE simulation, CIVAnde features many tools and models to speed the analysis up:• Predefined transducers including phased array features,• Parameterised geometries,• CAD coupling capabilities,• Materials database,• Built-in post-processing tools…

Those numerous tools make CIVAnde easy-to-use even for non-NDE experts.

Ultrasonic NDE: Immersed phased array over an irregularly shaped piece, with adapted delay laws.

Eddy current NDE: Impedance change due to a crack.

MOTOR-CAD®

- SPEED®

ELECTRIC MOTOR DESIGN

MOTOR-CAD®

, Thermal Optimisation of Motors >>>

MOTOR-CAD is the most advanced motor design software specifically designed to simplify the complexity of thermal analysis.

The thermal models of MOTOR-CAD are based on lumped-circuit analysis providing instantaneous results. Both permanent and transient thermal behaviour (duty-cycle) can be analysed.

A valuable graphical feedback (geometry, schematic diagram, graphs…), associated with numerous sophisticated cooling methods (spiral grooves, liquid cooling, through ventilation...) makes MOTOR-CAD a comprehensive and powerful tool to analyse the thermal behaviour of motors and speed up size reduction processes.

SPEED®

, Electric Motors Sizing >>>

SPEED is the most advanced software dedicated to electric motors electromagnetic pre-dimensioning.

SPEED offers numerous templates to help the user to define the geometry, the winding scheme as well as the drive and control to get characteristic quantities such as torque, speed, phase current and voltages, losses…Thanks to a complete library (type of motor, slots and bars, winding scheme, drive…), a full motor can be quickly and easily sized by setting the different parameters in the templates.

Tiled window including outline, template and winding editors, as well as simulation graphs.

Axial and radial cross section editors.

SPEED and MOTOR-CAD are the ideal complements to FLUX to determine the general geometry, winding scheme and drive of a motor, as well as its electromagnetic and thermal behaviour.

ATILA® ACTIVE MATERIALS

Graphic interface including graphs and control tools.

ATILA®

, Active Materials Modelling >>>

ATILA is one of the most versatile programs for modelling smart structures and materials on the market.

ATILA is a very efficient design tool for all types of active materials applications:• Strong electrical/mechanical and fluid/structure

couplings,• Lossy materials: very accurate and realistic values of

maximum displacement, stress, and electrical impedance,• Multiple excitations at the same time (electrical, magnetic,

mechanical and acoustic excitations),• Anisotropic properties of materials,• Resonance and antiresonance simultaneous analysis...

The ATILA software used for piezoelectric and magnetostrictive structures has become the reference tool in the development of actuators, motors, transducers and sensors based on smart materials.

Tip-tilt based on two APAs: Strain structure. (Cedrat Technologies).
