SimScale, a leading provider of production-ready SaaS application for engineering simulation, will be teaming up with UK-based Zaha Hadid Architects (ZHA) to simulate early-stage building design.

 

ZHA is an internationally renowned architecture firm, pushing the boundaries of design and sustainability. It has completed almost 1,000 projects in 44 countries and have worked on some of the most iconic and award-winning buildings in the world. 

 

SimScale is a cloud-based simulation tool for modeling and simulating the built environment. Common customer use cases include using SimScale to simulate the impacts of wind and climate on buildings and master plans.

 

The duo will be showcasing its cloud-based simulation platform for architecture firms at an event to be held on December 16. 

 

The joint event will showcase how ZHA are using SimScale to evaluate climate impact on their designs, with a focus on early-stage design simulation on the cloud. 

 

The guest speaker at the event, Carlos Bausa Martinez from ZHA, is the sustainability team lead and responsible for environmental modeling within the practice.

 

According to him, architects, urban designers, and engineers using SimScale can now do the following with minimum input:

•Upload any CAD model using Rhino, SketchUp, Revit, and other tools

•Perform urban microclimate and pedestrian wind comfort studies quickly and accurately

•Evaluate indoor thermal comfort on multiple designs

•Simulate multiple early-stage design scenarios an order of magnitude faster than traditional engineering simulation software.

 

SimScale is the world’s first production-ready SaaS application for simulation. By providing instant access to (CFD) and (FEA) to over 200,000 users, SimScale has moved high-fidelity physics simulation technology from a complex and cost-prohibitive desktop application to a user-friendly cloud application accessible via a subscription-based pricing model.-TradeArabia News Service
