CAE-Tools

In the area of CAE, scapos offers software products for optimizing and accelerating existing simulation applications, as well as solutions for multiphysics-simulation:

 MpCCI provide a means to link independent simulation programs, necessary for the solution of multidisciplinary problems. This software supports the leading industrial simulation tools.

 SCAIMapper supports workflows comprising multi-stage simulations and has been applied to increase the predictive capability of crash calculations by integrating the results of the manufacturing history into the crash model.

 FEMZIP compresses data arising from numerical simulations (LS-DYNA™, PAM-CRASH™, MSC Nastran™, Star-CD™, OpenFOAM™)

 DIFF-CRASH is a tool, which identifies sources of scatter and instabilities arising in automotive crash simulations, which may be caused by physical or numerical properties or modeling inaccuracies.

 DesParO is a for intuitive exploration and automatic analysis and optimization of parametrised computer simulations or physical experiments.

HPC-Tools

PGAS (Partitioned Global Address Space) programming models have been discussed as an alternative to MPI for some time. The PGAS approach offers the developer an abstract shared address space which simplifies the programming task and at the same time facilitates: data-locality, thread-based programming, asynchronous communication.

With  GPI, scapos now offers a new Fraunhofer ITWM implementation, that is available as an API directly from C, C++, Fortran, as opposed to a new language, and which has already proven itself in several applications.

Nesting & Packing Optimization

scapos offers software packages in the area of optimization of packing and the minimization of  waste material in cutting problems, which for many years have been used by more than 7000 industrial companies:

 AutoNester-T optimizes the automatic placement of markers onto fabric panels. By configuring the optimal nesting pattern, the software minimizes the amount of wasted fabric. Leading manufacturers in the garment and upholstery industries already use this software to optimize their production.

 AutoNester-L automatically creates optimized markers for leather hides. The software nests the pieces optimally in a very short time, minimizes wasted material, while adhering to various constraints. AutoNester-L is used in both the leather and automotive industries.

 PackAssistant helps to find the best possible solution of how standard containers, e.g. wire-mesh pallets, may be packed with the maximum number of complex parts of the same type.

Solver

 SAMG is a software package for the highly efficient numerical solution of large sparse matrix problems. These problems occur in application areas such as fluid flow, structural mechanics, oil reservoir and ground water simulation, casting and molding, process and device simulation in solid state physics and circuit simulation

Knowledge Mining

Finding relevant information in gigantic amounts of text, presents researchers with enormous problems. In the search within large data sets more and more researchers are supported by text mining software products:

 ProMiner identifies the names of genes and proteins in scientific literature. This identification is based on automatically generated lexica. ProMiner’s lexicon on “Homo sapiens” currently comprises 18,000 entries and 270,000 synonyms.  

 SCAIView is a Knowledge Discovery software for the Life Sciences. It allows the fast finding of aggregated information from large text sources. For this it integrates the results of ProMiner with the associated text and allows semantic search.

 chemoCR extracts chemical structural formulas from chemical structure depictions in scientific literature. The software package converts the structural images into a format that the computer can use to process the information.

Virtual Material Design

An essential basis for designing novel materials is the understanding of their properties at the nanoscale.  Molecular dynamics is an important tool for the analysis of a material at that scale.

With  Tremolo-X scapos offers a massively parallel software package for numerical simulation in molecular dynamics. In the development of the software, great emphasis was placed on the parallel implementation and the resulting high efficiency.
