The Simulation Solution

Two ways to simulate, one design

On your computer using SOLIDWORKS Simulation, or in the cloud using SIMULIA when the calculation exceeds the computer's capabilities. In both cases, the analysis starts with your model and returns to it.

What the simulation tells you before the workshop
Where the part fails, where it heats up, how it vibrates, how many cycles it can withstand: the prototype confirms these things; it no longer reveals them.

Native AI · Dassault Systèmes

AI prepares the analysis; the engineer makes the decision

Run a drop test from a preset, let the assistant explain why a model isn't converging, and explore the material distribution even before you draw the geometry.

Customer Reviews

They explain it better than we do

Mohammad Aghababa 11 months ago

I had a great technical support session with Alan and Léo from Ohmycad. They explained clearly how to save files on 3DEXPERIENCE and manage revisions with the maturity cycle. The session was very helpful, professional, and easy to follow. Looking forward to the next one on automating the drawing title block. Highly recommend their support team!

As a startup working with Solidworks, we’re truly grateful for the brilliant support we've been receiving from Ryan and Hady. Their guidance, their clarity, and their ability to adapt to our stakes make a real difference. This kind of team by your side is a huge asset when moving fast and building deeptech. Thanks guys !

Excellent support, XDI respond very quickly in a positive, friendly manner and have been able to resolve the few problems I've had, very quickly and efficiently. I would not hesutate to recommend them.

Frequently asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions: 3DEXPERIENCE Simulation

Why buy through a reseller instead of buying directly?
Prices are the same as the software vendor's. The difference is that you have a dedicated contact who sets up your licenses, trains your teams, and provides troubleshooting support, as well as Ohmycare, a dedicated, certified engineer who is familiar with your projects.
SOLIDWORKS Simulation or SIMULIA: Which Should You Choose?+
SOLIDWORKS Simulation is installed on your computer and handles the mechanical validation of your SOLIDWORKS designs. SIMULIA, on the 3DEXPERIENCE cloud, provides the computational power of Abaqus technology without the need for a dedicated workstation. The right choice depends on your specific use cases: Ohmycad can help you decide during a single consultation.
Is a dedicated workstation required?+
Not necessarily. When used locally, SOLIDWORKS Simulation runs on your CAD workstation. On the 3DEXPERIENCE cloud, the simulation runs on Dassault Systèmes servers: you can launch a simulation from any workstation and retrieve the results.
Can you do simulations without being a simulation specialist?+
Yes. The Designer roles are designed for designers: guided data entry, configuration wizards, and interpretable results. For advanced analyses (nonlinear, dynamic, fluid dynamics), the Engineer and Analyst roles take over, and Ohmycare is there to support you.
How much will the simulation cost in 2026?+
SOLIDWORKS Simulation and SIMULIA roles are available on a subscription basis, per seat, per year, at the official Dassault Systèmes price. The price depends on the level (Designer, Engineer, Analyst) and the domain (structural, fluid, electromagnetics): each role is detailed on its product page, and Ohmycad will provide a quote tailored to your specific calculation needs.
Does simulation benefit from AI?+
Yes: data entry assistants, topological optimization, and mesh suggestions are powered by Dassault Systèmes' AI (LEO, AURA, MARIE), directly within your validation process.
