Ansys (NASDAQ: ANSS) and NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) have announced an expanded collaboration to integrate accelerated computing and generative AI technologies into simulation solutions. This partnership aims to advance various industries, including 6G communication systems, autonomous vehicles, digital twins, and visual rendering.
By combining NVIDIA’s advanced GPUs and AI capabilities with Ansys’ simulation tools, design cycles are expected to shorten while product complexity improves across industries. Ansys has recently joined the Alliance for OpenUSD (AOUSD) to promote data interoperability in 3D content, benefiting its broad product portfolio.
The collaboration focuses on accelerated computing, 6G telecommunications, AI-enhanced simulation, and AI foundry. Ansys uses NVIDIA’s Tensor Core GPUs and plans to incorporate Blackwell-based processors and Grace Hopper Superchips to optimize solutions such as Ansys Fluent and LS-Dyna.
For 6G telecommunications, Ansys adopts the NVIDIA 6G Research Cloud platform to support AI development for radio access network technology. AI-enhanced simulation involves exploring the NVIDIA Modulus framework to integrate physics-based machine learning, enhancing optimization and design robustness.
Additionally, Ansys explores NVIDIA AI foundry services to develop large language models, potentially simplifying simulation setup and usage. The collaboration underscores both CEOs’ enthusiasm for addressing engineering challenges and innovating within the NVIDIA Omniverse environment.
