ThermoAnalytics CoTherm 1.5CoTherm is an ambassador that facilitates the flow of information between CAE simulation products. Instead of working with complicated scripts, CoTherm lets you construct complex CAE coupling processes with an intuitive user interface allowing you to graphically monitor and automate your coupled simulation. Customize your coupling workflow within the GUI, make it as simple or as complicated as you like. You can create a completely automated process using the GUI by combining generic and process-specific tasks. CoTherm can also be extended using the API (for example to support proprietary in-house software packages which need special interfaces). The modular design of CoTherm makes it easy for a process to be built once and re-used for many different products and...
