NEW COSMOS SOFTWARE BRINGS POWERFUL ANALYSIS CAPABILITIES TO EVERY ENGINEER’S DESKTOP   
  
Latest innovations and enhancements help designers work seamlessly in SolidWorks software, analyze fluids, and conduct detailed motion analysis to reduce time to market
CONCORD, Mass., Sept. 23, 2002 - SolidWorks Corporation today put more power in designers' hands with upgraded analysis products that will shorten design review cycles and reduce the number of expensive physical prototypes. Designers and engineers can use COSMOSWorksTM 2003, COSMOSFloWorksTM 2003 and COSMOSMotionTM 2003 to quickly detect potential design problems and fix them before prototype production begins, preventing post-production errors that cost time and money. These new products, along with the recently announced SolidWorks[$reg] 2003 three-dimensional computer-aided design (3D CAD) software, will help designers and engineers work more productively so they can speed products to market and boost revenue.  
  
"We use COSMOSWorks for all of our finite element analysis (FEA)," said Don Bartlett, senior staff engineer/product develOPMent for Fanuc Robotics. "We appreciate the fact that COSMOSWorks is tightly integrated with SolidWorks, because it is extremely convenient and easy to use. With our previous FEA package, it took hours to run a simple stress analysis, and required a new model to be built for each part and an engineer who specialized in running the FEA program. Because COSMOSWorks is so efficient, the analysis runs take minutes instead of hours. It is not uncommon for us to have several iterations of a stress analysis before we release a part for build. The bottom line is that COSMOSWorks allows us to design lighter parts that have adequate stiffness and strength at a lower cost."  
  
Getting the design right the first time
The COSMOSTM analysis product line upgrades for 2003 allow designers to analyze moving parts, fluid flow, and the overall structural integrity of their parts and assemblies. COSMOSWorks 2003 seamlessly integrates with SolidWorks 2003 so users can click on an icon from within the SolidWorks window and begin conducting multiple "what if" scenarios to determine the reliability of their products. Launching analysis directly from the 3D CAD design software saves engineers and designers the time it used to take hopping from one application to another. COSMOSWorks 2003's new visualization feature allows users to view SolidWorks models and corresponding design analysis results so they can better see potential problems on the design.  
  
Additional enhancements to COSMOSWorks 2003 include:  
  
Automatic solution convergence using H-Adaptive technology that minimizes manual mesh refinements;  
A failure diagnostic tool, automatic loop, and controls for easily meshing parts in a complicated assembly, especially those with large size differences between the parts.  
The ability to convert COSMOSWorks results into eDrawings files so users can simultaneously visualize models and analysis results;  
Batch processing multiple studies for simultaneous "what if" comparisons;  
Seamless integration with SolidWorks' heads-up interface;  
COSMOSFloWorks 2003 allows users to easily see how non-Newtonian fluids such as oil, liquid plastic, toothpaste or blood might flow through different machines. This kind of analysis helps manufacturers meet production schedules, and pharmaceutical companies ensure their devices deliver the right amount of medicine at the right time. COSMOSFloWorks 2003 also allows designers to include radiative heat transfer, for example, to explore how an air conditioner might cool a room with large windows.  
COSMOSMotion 2003 is a virtual prototyping tool that provides motion simulation capabilities to ensure designs work before they are built. It gives users more control over how they test their product designs in motion. COSMOSMotion 2003 allows designers and engineers to analyze bushings (a flexible connector often used to dampen vibrations); reduce the number of contact definitions (such as sprocket teeth with the same dimensions) they need to build and analyze; and customize how they view displacement, velocity, acceleration, and force vectors on the screen.  
  
"Since we founded SolidWorks Corporation in 1993, our mission has been to help designers and engineers do their jobs faster, easier, and better," said Dave Corcoran, executive vice president of research and development at SolidWorks. "These powerful upgrades to the COSMOS analysis product line provide engineers with more information about their product designs and how the prototypes will stand up to a variety of mechanical and thermal loadings. Seeing this information up front allows them to fix design problems before the designs hit the manufacturing floor. That saves time, cuts costs, and helps them stay competitive."
