Is Modelling & Simulation Useful for the Healthcare Industry?

Creating new and better healthcare products takes time, diligence and complying with regulatory processes. Computational modelling and simulation makes it possible to create and test designs and processes virtually, streamlining the development process while accounting for factors that impact safety and efficacy. Find out more about modelling and simulation across the three areas of the healthcare industry: Medical Devices, Life Sciences and Pharmaceuticals.

Multiphysics simulation helps engineers accurately represent how devices and drugs interact with physiological processes, equipment and device components, helping users understand, design and optimise medical and biomedical devices and processes, allowing them to efficiently tackle key questions related to patient safety, product quality and effectiveness, and regulatory compliance. Products and processes within the industry span a wide range of physics, such as fluid flow, chemistry, electromagnetic fields, acoustics, heat transfer and mechanics of biological tissues, which is why tools need to be capable of accurately capturing these physics, enabling engineers, researchers and scientists to quickly and efficiently find solutions to existing challenges.
