  • Patent number: 8626475
    Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling settings of a design system include receiving, via a communications interface, identifying data associated with a multiphysics modeling system. Instructions are transmitted via the communication interface or another interface. The instructions include model settings related to a multiphysics model at least partially residing in the multiphysics modeling system. Model results are received that are at least partially derived from the transmitted model settings. At least a portion of the received model results are displayed in a graphical user interface associated with the design system.

  • Publication number: 20130197886
    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for representing and modeling one or more systems in which each system corresponds to an application mode. This may be done for one or more geometries using local and/or non-local couplings. For each application mode, physical quantities are modeled and may be defined using a graphical user interface. Physical properties may be used to model the physical quantities of each system. The physical properties may be defined in terms of numerical values or constants, and mathematical expressions that may include numerical values, space coordinates, time coordinates, and actual physical quantities. Physical quantities and any associated variables may apply to some or all of a geometric domain, and may also be disabled in other parts of a geometrical domain. Partial differential equations describe the physical quantities. One or more application modes may be combined using an automated technique into a combined system of partial differential equations as a multiphysics model.

  • Publication number: 20120303341
    Abstract: A system and method for generating a model for simulating systems of reacting species includes receiving reaction formulas, determining a reaction rate expression for the received reaction formulas, and generating a model for simulating systems of reacting species using the received reaction formulas and the determined reaction rate expressions. The reaction list is pruned to deactivate one or more reactions based on one or more criteria. Using a graphical user interface, the reaction formulas may be received, the generated model may be displayed, the determined reaction rate expression may be modified, the generated reaction list may be displayed, and the generated species list may be displayed. An output based on the generated model may be displayed that includes the composition and temperature dependence of the system of reacting species. Material and energy balances may be generated for the reacting species as input to a solver of partial differential equations.

  • Publication number: 20120179426
    Abstract: A system and method for implementing, on one or more processors, a bidirectional link between a design system and a multiphysics modeling system includes establishing via a communications link a connection between the design system and the multiphysics modeling system. Instructions are communicated via the communication link that include commands for generating a geometric representation in the design system based on parameters communicated from the multiphysics modeling system. One or more memory components can be configured to store a design system dynamic link library and a multiphysics modeling system dynamic link library. A controller can be operative to detect an installation of the design system, and implement via the dynamic link libraries, bidirectional communications of instructions between the design system and the multiphysics modeling system.

  • Patent number: 8219373
    Abstract: A system and method for generating a model for simulating systems of reacting species comprising receiving a plurality of reaction formulas, determining a reaction rate expression for each of the received reaction formulas, and generating a model for simulating systems of reacting species using the received reaction formulas and the determined reaction rate expressions. The invention further relates to pruning the reaction list to deactivate one or more reactions in the reaction list based on one or more criteria, such as threshold criteria. A graphical user interface may also be used in connection with the present invention in various ways. An output based on the generated model may be displayed, wherein the output displays the composition and temperature dependence of the system of reacting species. Material and energy balances may also be generated for the reacting species as input to a solver of partial differential equations.
