Developed and produced by ES.TECO srl Italy, modeFRONTIER® is
the world class software technology for PIDO - Process Integration
and Multi Objective Design Optimization.
modeFRONTIER is a multiobjective optimization and design
environment, designed to allow easy coupling to almost any
computer-aided engineering (CAE) tool, whether commercial or
in-house. As the name suggests, modeFRONTIER provides an
environment that allows product engineers and designers to
integrate CAE tools, such as CAD, Finite Element Structural
Analysis, and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software. Using a
variety of state-of-the-art optimization techniques, ranging from
gradient-based methods to genetic algorithms, users can optimize
their process or design by specifying objectives and defining
variables that affect factors such as geometric shape and operating
conditions. modeFRONTIER in effect becomes a wrapper around the CAE
tool, performing the optimization by modifying the value assigned
to the input variables, and monitoring the outputs.
Today, modeFRONTIER is widely acknowledged by industry, research
bodies and academia as one of the most complete systems and the
most robust and effective architecture in its field.
