Using Simulation to Make Better Decisions – Part 2
In my previous post I started to discuss an outline of the Cost Savings Strategies for Engineering whitepaper by Michelle Boucher of the Aberdeen Group. In it I covered the top design challenges, drivers for change and the performance advantages enjoyed by best-in-class companies that take advantage of using CAE software. In this post I’ll continue and discuss what the best-in-class companies are doing differently and cover some steps for success.
