Set up and run a motion analysis, plot the results, and export the results.
The Analyst profile functions as a feature-rich pre-processor, originally inspired by the needs of the automotive industry. Utilizing a hard-point design approach, it provides access to the full suite of MotionSolve features and capabilities. The Analyst profile offers unparalleled flexibility in system modeling and can be highly tailored to specific industry requirements. However, this versatility comes with increased complexity, requiring a higher level of MBD expertise and a specialized mindset for effective use.

Start using Inspire with our interactive tutorials.
Create and assign variables to parametrize a model. This allows you to quickly iterate and compare design concepts by tweaking the values of the variables.
Create parametric sketches, geometry, and PolyNURBS with construction history and variables.
Create implicit models with primitives, lattices, point clouds, fields, offsetting, Booleans, inverting, smoothing, morphing, and filleting.
Set up your model and run a structural analysis or optimization.
The Designer profile adopts a user-centric approach, prioritizing accessibility and ease of use over complexity. While its feature set is less extensive than that of the Analyst profile, it compensates by streamlining functionality and abstracting complexities through intuitive user interactions. This simplicity empowers users outside the traditional Multibody Dynamics (MBD) community to achieve their objectives efficiently, requiring minimal familiarity with MBD.
Attachments offer a means to connect definition-based analyst entities such as systems, analyses, data sets and templates.
Define motion connections by grounding parts and creating rigid groups and joints.
Apply motors, actuators, springs, and gravity to define the elements for a motion analysis.
Convert rigid bodies or rigid groups to flexible bodies and review flexible body modes before running a motion analysis.
A curve in 3D modeling space is represented as a line geometry, referred to as a 3D curve.
Splines are response curves (X-Y data) or surfaces (XZ-Y data) that can be used in forces and motions to represent non-linear characteristics.
Run a motion analysis, plot the results, and extract the results for use in structural (FE) analysis and optimization.
Prepare and run a computational fluid dynamics simulation.
Evaluate designs by using geometric variables and applying a design-of-experiments (DOE) or optimization method. We recommend fully constraining your sketch when sketch variables are used in the design exploration.
Set up and run a basic porosity or thinning analysis.
Prepare and run an additive manufacturing simulation, and export a file for 3D printing.
Adjust the materials and environment of objects in the scene to create a photorealistic image.
Learn how to access the Inspire Python API including online help, quick start demos, and the Extension Manager.
