New to Inspire? Learn the basics here.
Start using Inspire with our interactive tutorials.
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.
Create connections and apply loads, constraints, materials, and manufacturing controls to your model.
Set up and run a linear static analysis using the SimSolid or OptiStruct solver. You can also analyze normal modes and buckling modes.
Optimization will find the most effecitve design for each design space in a model in response to the applied loading conditions on that model. You can run several different types of optimization including topology, topography,gauge, and PolyNURBS shape optimization.
Choose whether to run jobs locally or on a remote job server.
Define and run a topology, topography, or gauge optimization using the Run Optimization tool.
View and compare optimization results, view design violations, and explore the generated shape.
Generate PPT or PDF reports from structural analysis results. The Report tools are available after you have run a structural analysis.
Set up and run a motion analysis, plot the results, and export the results.
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.
View the glossary, frequently asked questions, and errors and alerts.
Learn keyboard shortcuts and mouse controls for common operations.
