Toyota Motorsport has used the Dassault Systemes Generative Car Design industry solution to develop F1 car designs for the 2004 season.
Simulia SLM accelerates the product development lifecycle by providing timely access to the right information through secure storage, search and retrieval functionality that is specific to simulation processes and data.
Simulia SLM maximises the value of company-generated intellectual property (IP) through the capture, re-use and deployment of simulation best practices.
It also provides tools for control and sharing of simulation data for collaborative product development.

"The release of Simulia SLM marks a major milestone for Simulia as we expand our product portfolio beyond the Abaqus product line", said Mark Goldstein, CEO, Simulia.
"Simulia SLM will enable our customers to secure their simulation intellectual property and transform it into a valuable and controlled corporate asset".
Shorter product lifecycles, higher costs, stricter regulations and the desire to benefit from a greater number of simulations mean that companies need an economical and effective solution to manage, share and secure their simulation assets.
To ensure affordable and efficient deployment, Simulia SLM provides significant capabilities directly "out of the box" so that users can gain tangible benefits immediately.
The release delivers capabilities to manage all data associated with simulations, integrate and control the execution of simulation applications, carry out operations such as query and version control, administer access privileges and perform and review simulations in a distributed, collaborative environment.
Simulia SLM also works with simulation authoring applications developed by Simulia, Dassault Systemes, third parties and customers via a connectors framework.
This enables a diverse set of simulation solutions to be deployed and executed from within the Simulia SLM environment.
Connectors are currently available for Abaqus Unified FEA, Catia and a variety of third-party applications such as Nastran, HyperMesh, AcuSolve and STAR-CD.
Customers can also easily configure Connectors to their specific applications.
A simulation lifecycle management white paper and webinar are available on the Simulia website.
