It uses a ‘Topology Optimization’ algorithm to generate product designs in 3D and using topography optimization can change the shape of shell structures through stamped bead patterns. Built upon algorithms that were developed by biomedical research for predicting human bone growth, solidThinking Inspire is a platform for early-stage optimization and analysis or verification of designs. Here’s where Altair’s solidThinking Inspire software comes into play. But when a structural system involves a complex hodgepodge of concepts, designs and materials, that intuition may not be enough. With the 9.0 release, solidThinking became Evolve and solidThinking Inspired became Inspire, both sold under the solidThinking brand.Where do your designs begin? Do you use previous projects as your launchpad, or can you rely entirely on hard-earned knowledge of structural engineering theories? When solving straightforward problems, designers tap into what we call their “engineering intuition” to build efficient structures. SolidThinking version 8.0 and solidThinking Inspired 8.0, introducing the morphogenesis form-generation technology, were released in September 2009. Today all releases of solidThinking are simultaneously developed for both Windows and Mac OS X. One year later solidThinking for Mac OS X was also released. The Construction History and an extensive NURBS modeling toolset were the main additions. The design software was originally developed for NEXTSTEP, the operating system developed by NeXT, and it was soon awarded as the best new application in the "CAD and 3D" category at NeXTWORLD EXPO held in San Francisco in June 1993.Ī complete re-write of the application for the Windows platform started in 1997 and was completed in 1998 with the release of solidThinking 3.0 for Windows.
SolidThinking is a software company developing Evolve, a 3D modeling and rendering software and Inspire, a concept generation tool.
