MultiMechanics is a software company based in Omaha, NE. Their flagship product, MultiMech, is a multiscale finite element simulation package used for the structural analysis of advanced materials.
The company was founded in 2010 by Flavio Souza and Leandro Castro. The mission of MultiMechanics is to advance the development of new and innovative products by reducing the reliance on physical prototyping and testing.
MultiMechanics is part of the Altair Hyperworks Partner Alliance, the Ansys App Store, and the Dassault Systèmes Partner Program. The company was named the DesktopEngineering.com "Pick of the Week" in 2016 and the Nebraska Business Development Center’s Technology Company of the Year in 2011.
MultiMech Software
MultiMech is one of several commercially available multiscale simulation technologies for solid structural analysis. MultiMech is a stand-alone Finite Element desktop-based solution that consists of a pre-processor, a proprietary solver, and a post-processor. MultiMech is also integrated with CAE platforms Abaqus and Ansys Workbench.
Physical tests have confirmed that microstructural details of anisotropic materials, such as particle/fiber volume fraction, fiber orientation, crack density/orientation, and constitutive properties of the individual constituents have a substantial impact on overall material properties. Multiscale solutions are designed to account for these microstructural details and simulate damages within the microstructure of a given model, lin king that behavior to the analysis of a larger part. Common behavior-inducing variables within microstructure of advanced materials include:
