applications Tis is no mean feat, as product designs are
becoming increasingly complex so, as a result, Maplesoſt developed a modular approach to its soſtware to mirror the modularity required to build a complex simulation. If, for example, an engineer is designing an electric vehicle then they can use Maplesoſt technology to model different components of that vehicle such as electrical or mechanical or hydraulics, and then obtain a system-level view of the system to analyse how each component interacts with the others. Tis gives insights into the behaviour of the system as a whole, or that of each subsystem, early on in the process. Add-on packages such as driveline and battery packages also help solve specific problems related to those areas. Tis approach is suited to Maplesoſt’s clients,
who require results in a matter of seconds to perform a high volume of iterations. Bernardin added: ‘We are dealing with quick simulations, which make it possible for users to carry out many iterations of the same system. Tis is greatly advantageous for our client base as they try to optimise incredibly complex systems by building a picture one component at a time.’ It is not only the simulations and the soſtware
that need a modular approach. Maplesoſt has ensured its products can scale up to meet the computational power requirements of its customers too. Bernardin said: ‘Te majority
of those using the Maplesoſt suite of products use single work stations, and they can increase their computing power by supplementing additional workstations, or even moving to a high performance computing system.’
The future Te company is continuing to evolve and has a clear understanding of its place in the modelling and simulation space in the years ahead. Bernardin said: ‘More and more industries are using simulations and one day we would like to see a simulation of an entire product before any hardware is produced.’ ‘Today, we can simulate the components and
interactions between components in a system – but the full simulation of an entire aeroplane or vehicle could be achieved with Maplesoſt’s tools in five to 10 years. Tis is not only a realistic goal, but a very exciting one within the modelling and simulation industry,’ he added. Maplesoſt will continue to target a wide
customer base too, as Bernardin added: ‘We will focus on taking our advanced tools and technology, and making them more accessible to a broader range of scientists and engineers.’ Tis inclusive approach cannot be achieved
by only producing user-friendly soſtware. Maplesoſt has a strong community and support space to help users understand and get
the most out of their simulations. Bernardin said: ‘We listen to and work
closely with our customers to find the right solution for them. For example, our engineering services team is a division that works with clients to make sure they are using our tools effectively.’ With years of expertise in technical
education, Maplesoſt has also bolstered its position in its original academic market with its technology platform to help academic
THIS INCLUSIVE
APPROACH CANNOT BE ACHIEVED BY ONLY PRODUCING USER- FRIENDLY SOFTWARE
institutions move their STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) courses online. Te project allows users to create, share, and grade interactive math apps, further extending the reach of its soſtware to the next generation of users. Tis level of accessibility and knowledge
sharing is a rare jewel in the world of mathematical modelling and simulation – and is a trait that will see Maplesoſt continue to grow and evolve in the years ahead. l
