Ansys medini analyze
Safety & Security for Electronic Systems

Ansys medini analyze implements key safety analysis methods (HAZOP, HARA, FHA, FTA, FME(C)A, FMEDA, etc.) in one integrated tool. It supports the efficient and consistent execution of the analysis activities that are required by safety standards.

Quality, Safety and Reliability Engineering

Ansys medini analyze streamlines functional safety analysis across the entire system architecture — including electronics down to the chip level

Ansys medini analyze is a model-based, integrated tool supporting safety analysis for safety-critical electrical and electronic (E/E) and software (SW) controlled systems. It allows for consistent and efficient application of industry guidelines, specifically tailored to industry standards, such as ISO 26262, IEC 61508, ARP 4761, ISO 21448 or MIL-STD-882E.

Ansys + ZF Group

“Ansys medini analyze helped us to provide functional safety analysis for hardware, software and systems based on and fully compliant to architecture models.”

—Günter Gäbelein, Safety Assessor / ZF Friedrichshafen AG

According to Günter Gäbelein, Safety Assessor at ZF Friedrichshafen AG, “As a systems supplier for passenger cars, commercial vehicles, and industrial technology, ZF Friedrichshafen AG places great emphasis on agility and innovation. To support exciting developments like autonomous driving and electric mobility, our R&D process must be fast, cost effective, and technically precise. More and more projects are taking advantage of synergies provided by medini analyze. In a medium-size project, more than 300 hours of effort can be saved by the one-tool solution and the interfaces to third-party tools for architectures. ZF is a strong advocate for model-based engineering, and medini analyze helps to reduce the complexity of analysis for embedded systems."
