The Manufacturing Intelligence division of Hexagon, Stockholm, Sweden, has introduced Elements, a new simulation software that helps engineering teams understand the behavior of systems that are becoming increasingly complex in modern products. Using the software, teams can evaluate the performance and feasibility of new design concepts to inform more efficient product development and reduce risk and cost. Elements addresses the growing importance of integrated, multidisciplinary system development and end-to-end workflows, including integration of relevant engineering disciplines, control systems, and third-party supplier systems. Systems engineers can easily learn to use its drag-and-drop environment, based on the Modelica language, to model any physics type or logic, and analyze systems by intuitively connecting blocks — regardless of whether they represent electrical, hydraulic, or mechanical components.
