Advancing FEA validation: EikoSim partners with Hexagon

We’re excited to announce our strategic partnership with Hexagon Design and Engineering, bringing cutting-edge Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technology directly into your MSC Nastran and MSC Apex workflows.

Transforming simulation accuracy
This collaboration integrates EikoSim’s EikoTwin software solutions with Hexagon’s proven FEA tools, enabling engineers to seamlessly validate simulation models with high-resolution experimental data. By capturing real-world behaviour directly on your FEA geometry, this partnership bridges the gap between theoretical models and actual performance.

What this means for engineers
✓ Enhanced precision: Fine-tune simulation parameters using detailed experimental data to reduce discrepancies and improve prediction accuracy
✓ Accelerated development: Quickly identify and correct model errors with streamlined DIC data integration, minimising manual calibration time
✓ Increased confidence: Make design decisions backed by experimental validation, ensuring safer and more reliable structural assessments

User-centric design
The integrated solution is built for engineers at every level, offering an intuitive interface that guides users through data import, correlation, and analysis. Whether conducting rapid DIC measurements or designing comprehensive feedback loops for material parameter correction, the workflow remains accessible and efficient.
This partnership also reinforces Hexagon’s commitment to delivering comprehensive simulation solutions that combine the power of MSC Nastran and MSC Apex with innovative validation technologies.
