GrabCAD, SimScale Challenge Promotes Cloud-based Design

摘要

GrabCAD and SimScale are teaming up on a design challenge that encourages participants to show off their CAD and simulation prowess by designing a rear underrun protection device (RUPD) for trucks. The project represents the joint efforts of two upstarts with a common vision for how cloud-based 3D design and collaboration tools can radically transform how engineering teams work together, to produce more robust and innovative products. As 2014 began, GrabCAD, a three-year-old 3D content-exchange community, just logged its 1 millionth user - and is currently home to more then 370,000 shared CAD files. Last year, the company turned its attention to cloud-hosted collaboration and file-sharing, introducing its GrabCAD Workbench offering.
