Ansys Twin Builder
Getting Started (Self-paced Learning Available)

Course Overview

The basic class training will teach how to use Ansys Twin Builder to design, modeling, analysis and optimization of high-performance systems that can eventually be deployed as Digital Twins. Most common applications are found in the automotive, aerospace/defense, and industrial automation industries. This training will introduce you to the Modelica standard and developing system models in Modelica. The training also covers how 3rd party models can be integrated in to using FMI, how Ansys 3D solvers can be coupled to Twin Builder through co-simulation, and how Reduced Order Models can be generated for transient applications.

Prerequisites

  • There is no prerequisite for this course.
