Before you download Simcenter System Simulation Solutions 2021.2

By Marta Sambaer

Bringing a new release to the market is always a joy. It’s like running over the finish line with the entire team. And trust me, Simcenter System Simulation Solutions 2021.2 is again a result of the hard work of many software development groups collaborating closely. The power of the development group is sharing one unifying vision: to help you master your product from the conceptual stages to achieve the best design possible. At Siemens, each release process starts with listening to our customers and mapping the situation in each industry.

Simcenter System simulation 2021.2

That’s why the Simcenter System Simulation Solutions 2021.2 introduces new features and tools answering the current electrification trend in the automotive and aviation industry and the progressing development of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS). Next, this release empowers you to build executable digital twins for real-time monitoring and accelerate system simulation with composite components. Furthermore, along with introducing new features quickening your engineering tasks, this release creates new important synergies to increase your team’s productivity and company profitability.

And that’s only in a nutshell. There is much more this release brings. Keep reading and explore all the updates in more detail.
