CAE plays a critical role in the development process of air- and spacecraft, where fast-paced change is the norm.  Recent advances in CFD/Multiphysics technologies, coupled with the phenomenal increase in computing power over the last decade, have made it possible to routinely conduct simulations of complete aircraft configurations. This ability to model a complete aircraft system at desired flight conditions provides valuable data to enable faster and cheaper design and evaluation cycles, and gives customers a competitive edge in the marketplace.
