CAE 

Computer Aided Engineering presently represents the fast developing third dimension of engineering disciplines in that it supports pure theory and experimentation in order to reduce the risks and costs associated with engineering projects. 

More and more tools are becoming available as part of well established CAD applications or as stand-alone products that offer Finite Element Analysis to help with stress durability analysis, structural optimization, determination of natural frequencies, solutions to vibration and noise, fluid flow and heat transfer analysis. There is now extensive historical data supporting the application of finite element methodologies in structural analysis and fluid dynamics. 

Profile of the Technosoft CAE Group

The CAE team comprises a growing number of CAE experts based in India with very high levels of experience in the management and analytical aspects of this specialisation. 

The Division is led by a Technosoft Senior Manager with 14 + years of experience in automotive, agricultural and aerospace engineering with special expertise in Structural Crashworthiness, CFD and Fatigue Analysis. We have completed more than 100 projects in the automotive industry in the US and have been responsible for setting up a global solutions delivery centre in India for a well known corporate. Excellent theoretical background is coupled with a perfect understanding of FE Modelling Quality Requirements.
