ANSYS is a suite of engineering simulation software used to model and analyze the behavior of physical systems, including structural mechanics, fluid dynamics, and electromagnetics, using finite element analysis (FEA) methods. Engineers in aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing industries use it to test product designs virtually before physical prototyping. The company ANSYS, Inc. develops and licenses this software to industrial and research organizations worldwide.
