Welding is a common practice in the automotive, aerospace, railways, ship building, and machinery industries. It allows for the joining of components by subjecting them to intense localised heat that melts and coalesces the material in the welded region, forming a permanent joint.

Multiple process parameters influence the effectiveness of the welding, which include energy source, shape and size of the melt zone, heat affected zone, and speed.

Understanding and improving this challenging process through physical iteration can be time consuming and expensive. MSC’s Marc, a nonlinear finite element analysis tool, can provide the required insights needed to solve these parameters in a cost-effective manner.

MSC Software develops simulation software technology that enables engineers to validate and optimize their designs using virtual prototypes. Customers in almost every part of manufacturing use our software to complement, and in some cases even replace the physical prototype “build and test” process that has traditionally been used in product design.

As a trusted partner, MSC Software helps companies improve quality, save time and reduce costs associated with design and test of manufactured products. Our products accurately and reliably predict how products will behave in the real world to help engineers design more innovative products – quickly and cost effectively. MSC Software’s technology is used by leading manufacturers for linear and nonlinear finite element analysis (FEA), acoustics, fluid-structure interaction (FSI), multi-physics, optimization, fatigue and durability, multi-body dynamics, and control systems simulation. MSC pioneered many of the technologies that are now relied upon by industry to analyze and predict stress and strain, vibration & dynamics, acoustics, and thermal analysis in our flagship product, MSC Nastran.
