Co-simulation is not a new concept. Four years ago, Anshi Asia Pacific put forward the concept of "co-simulation". This idea that caused a sensation in the industry seemed to be like a mirage at that time. It is impossible to achieve co-simulation. The illusory concept has become a technology that is highly sought after by the industry. In particular, with the gradual implementation of the 16th National Congress of the strategy of “informatization-driven industrializationâ€, information-based collaborative technology with extraordinary significance to the national economy has become an important way to enhance R&D technology and has become a key development direction. This has led to the simulation and CAE technology of “Drinking Alleys†gradually moving from the back to the front. For a time, everyone began to be interested in simulation technology, and the concept of co-simulation was also thoroughly asked. However, what is the concept and technology of co-simulation? How is it made? This seems to be a deep topic, and it may take a lot of latitude to explore. As one of these latitudes, this paper analyzes the tempering process of collaborative simulation through the classic case of collaborative simulation application.

Co-simulation, from customer needs
In the past, companies have paid great attention to the use of advanced research and development tools. However, most of them use single-item tools. In the process of using them, they always feel that they cannot use the maximum efficiency of the tools. This is because all the tools are for the same goal, but they are fighting each other and failing to exert the overall power. In addition, it is well known that the knowledge generated in the process of using tools is the real core competitiveness of enterprises. Although enterprises have begun to focus on the accumulation of knowledge, at present, their implementation methods for knowledge engineering are still relatively backward, and many enterprises lack The mechanisms, tools, and talents for the accumulation of knowledge allow for the loss of knowledge and nothing to do. At the same time, simulation technology is only used by a small number of experts, rarely for other departments and personnel. Although enterprise collaboration technology has been popular for a long time, it has been ignored by similar PLM strategies for many years in the field of simulation, whether it is technology or process. Data, or knowledge, not only is not linked to the broader departments and processes of the enterprise, and other people cannot benefit from enterprise collaboration technology.
With the gradual implementation and development of the manufacturing informationization strategy of “informatization-driven industrialization†proposed by the state, integration and synergy have become the general trend of information development, and how enterprises can enhance the ability of independent innovation through more effective means. To make enterprise information construction from single-point application to full integration, from single-application simulation technology to comprehensive collaborative simulation, it has become a realistic problem to be solved in front of every enterprise.
However, the collaborative technology in the field of simulation is very complicated, and the technology is also full of flowers. This makes the heterogeneous problem more serious, the need for synergy increases, and a good integration solution is needed. However, no matter the enterprise or the developer, on this issue, it is possible to go around and go around without any help. Under this circumstance, Anshi Asia Pacific put forward the concept of “co-simulationâ€, which aims to integrate the original discrete CAE technology, process, data and knowledge to form synergy, maximize simulation and give full play to personnel. The potential of tools, processes, and data to accomplish tasks that were previously impossible, maximize support for innovation and optimization of complex products, and enhance the competitiveness of the company.
The purpose of collaborative simulation is to systematically and effectively manage key objects such as projects, technologies, processes, data and knowledge in the product simulation business, to achieve human-to-human collaboration, technology and technology collaboration, business and business in the product simulation process. Collaboration. Link data and tools by integrating various R&D tools and data interfaces. According to the enterprise R&D simulation process, collaborative projects, departments, personnel, disciplines, software tools, data and other information form a unified association model to realize the plasticity management of a large amount of information generated during the R&D process, and seamlessly integrate with other systems of the enterprise. Form the R&D management system of the enterprise.
Of course, the value of co-simulation technology does not stop there. Collaborative technology reduces the difficulty of simulation by encapsulating knowledge, enabling more people to master simulation technology and enabling novices to enter high-capacity status earlier. In this way, simulation is no longer a "black hole", but is truly integrated into the enterprise collaborative environment, entering all aspects of the product life cycle, so that more people are willing to intervene in the simulation process to benefit from its results.
It can be seen that the collaborative platform technology of various enterprises has become one of the focuses of Chinese enterprises. Simulation technology has been used as an independent technology for a long time, and it is outside the corporate collaboration strategy. Until recently, people have become more aware of the great value of co-simulation technology - it is truly improving the enterprise. Key technologies for product development capabilities. With the development of enterprise technology, the demand for simulation technology is becoming more and more urgent, and the voice of establishing a collaborative simulation environment is getting higher and higher. Co-simulation technology has become the fundamental supporting technology for enterprise product innovation and development, and has become a sought after major CAE software supplier. The technology, so the construction of the co-simulation platform is the result of enterprise demand, but also the inevitable development of technology.
Co-simulation, return to customer practice
As a representative of the collaborative simulation platform, the enterprise-level co-simulation platform PERA combines the main value links of technical tools, management control and knowledge accumulation in three R&D fields, and will design model management, R&D technology management, R&D process management, multidisciplinary optimization, Multi-physics simulation, simulation data management and intellectual asset management combine to be highly scalable and compatible. It can manage the talents, technologies, data and processes in the complex R&D process in real time through advanced information technology, which greatly improves the R&D efficiency and success rate of the enterprise.
It can be said that the process implemented by the PERA platform is a process that matches the needs of the enterprise. The technology generated by the past customer requirements is integrated. The technology of the co-simulation platform is derived from the customer practice and eventually returns to the customer practice. The following is a combination of the five typical cases of the PERA platform to show you the tempering of corporate practice experienced by the platform of collaborative simulation.
