Healthcare

Creating new and better healthcare products takes time, diligence, and complying with regulatory processes. Computational modeling and simulation allows for creating and testing designs and processes virtually, streamlining the development process while accounting for factors that impact safety and efficacy. Multiphysics simulation, in particular, helps engineers accurately represent how devices and drugs interact with physiological processes, equipment, and device components.
