Sovereign Multiphysics Modelling and Simulation
Open Engineering is an independent European high-tech supplier offering cutting-edge multiphysics simulation engineering services and advanced 3D modelling and simulation software solutions.
With a focus on innovation and performance, Open Engineering delivers tailored tools designed to address complex engineering challenges across various industries.
OOFELIE::Multiphysics is a Belgium-developed, sovereign multiphysics solver and engineering platform for mission‑critical defence and space systems. Designed for secure, controlled deployment and tight integration with industry toolchains (including Siemens Simcenter 3D), OOFELIE::Multiphysics supports structural, thermal, acoustic, electromagnetic, piezoelectric and fluid–structure coupled analyses for sensors, MEMS, RF/EMI, optomechanics and small satellites.
We combine the solver with bespoke consulting, training and modernization services to deliver simulation workflows for defence primes and government programmes.
OOFELIE::Multiphysics environment in Simcenter 3D
The OOFELIE::Multiphysics environment for NX allows Simcenter 3D users to use a full-featured multiphysics solver within their home environment.
As an illustration, a pressure sensor analysed in Simcenter 3D. This pressure sensor is based on Silicon-on-insulator (Si-on-insulator, or “silicon on insulator”) which is a cutting-edge semiconductor technology used to fabricate advanced integrated circuits (ICs).
Software products by domains of application
The purpose of our OOFELIE::Multiphysics solver is to generate virtual prototypes. This entails creating highly detailed and precise simulations of your system. These multiphysics simulation findings can be used to anticipate outcomes, test multiple scenarios, and refine your ideas without the expense and limits of real-world testing. OOFELIE::Multiphysics virtual prototypes thrive at harsch scenarios, simulating probable conditions and results.
Multiphysics valve design
Engineers have access to a number of features in the OOFELIE::Multiphysics package to analyze and optimize valve behavior: thermomechanics, electromagnetics, cryogenic fluids.
Mechatronics applications
The application demonstrates how to execute an integrated simulation of controlled systems. In this case, a control loop with 12 sensors is put into place to regulate the positioning of 3 piezoelectric actuators.
Design for Additive Manufacturing
For engineers, multi-material design and topology optimization constitute modern methodologies to lightweight classical components and assembly structures.
Small satellites
Learn how the multiphysics capabilities of the OOFELIE::Multiphysics solver assist engineers in comprehending and optimizing the behavior of cubesats and tiny satellites.
Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI)
To assist engineers in precisely predicting fluid-structure interaction, OOFELIE::Multiphysics and FINE™/Open with OpenLabs™ (one flow solver from Cadence) have a two-way strong coupling.
Optics & Photonics
OOFELIE::Multiphysics is tightly combined with Zemax through automated in-memory data exchange to help engineers accurately predict the behavior of opto-thermomechanical systems and MOEMS.
Transducers & MEMS
MEMS and MOEMS are revolutionizing the transducer business. Strongly coupled multiphysics simulation approaches can be used by engineers to create robust devices.
