Overview
What is Tosca?
Tosca is an optimization suite that offers efficient and powerful structural and flow optimization solutions based on finite element analysis (FEA) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations.
Existing designs often only need small changes to improve the overall product performance.
Tosca optimization methods provide designers with the insights required to make improvements to the design to reduce factors like weight and cost without compromising performance.
Benefits
