modeFRONTIER
The desktop solution for process automation and optimization in the engineering design process.
modeFRONTIER is a multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) platform developed by the Italian software house ESTECO SpA. Its workflow-based environment, and multi-objective optimization algorithms are used for streamlining the engineering design process to cut time and cost while obtaining improved results.
It is a world-wide leading optimization platform enabling engineers to speed up the engineering process by automating design cycles and rapidly identifying the optimum solutions based on constraints and performance requirement.
With modeFRONTIER, you can manage the logical steps of your engineering design process, perform design space exploration and search for the optimal solution efficiently and faster, with the following advantages:
Design better products
Explore your design space, analyze your results and find the optimal solution. Rely on our state-of-the-art optimization algorithms, DOE and RSM techniques to drive innovation in your engineering project.
Deliver results on time
Streamline and accelerate your engineering process and run multiple simulations automatically to reach the best solution in less time.
Maximize your simulation resources
Easily perform seamless integration with any parametric solver and create complex multidisciplinary chains.
Increase performance
Evaluate thousands of designs simultaneously and focus on your engineering goal, rather than on configuration tasks.
Reduce computational time
Distribute the workload by running your models through grid computing, HPC systems and cloud services, and reduce the overall turnaround time
