Problem

Develop robust and comfortable 3‐D glasses.

Solution

Use ANSYS Mechanical to examine alternate designs ideas to sort out design trade‐offs for complex models incorporating nonlinear physics and 1M DOF. Use ANSYS HPC and with an NVIDIA GPU to speed the results.

Result

Solution time went from 60 hours to 47 minutes allowing NVIDIA to use engineering simulation to make design decisions concerning the performance of the glasses and continue to refine performance and fit.

 

“By optimizing our solver selection and workstation configuration, and including GPU acceleration, we’ve been able to dramatically reduce turnaround time - from over two days to just an hour. This enables the use of simulation to examine multiple design ideas and gain more value out of our investment in simulation.”
