Precise simulation for defense applications
Coreform’s Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) technology is transforming defense industry finite element analysis by eliminating the time required to generate a mesh. This approach ensures higher accuracy and reliability in simulating complex defense parts where precision is critical.
Military-grade simulation
Coreform Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) is cutting-edge computational simulation technology that brings the ability to accurately simulate complex physical phenomena to the defense industry. By applying finite element analysis (FEA) directly on the CAD geometry, Coreform IGA eliminates the traditional geometry-to-mesh conversion process, reducing errors and improving the fidelity of simulations.
This advanced capability is particularly valuable in the design and analysis of defense systems, such as aircraft, submarines, and advanced weaponry, where mil-spec precision and reliability are paramount. The seamless handling of complex geometries and the ability to perform rigorous, high-fidelity simulations make Coreform software a powerful asset in ensuring the performance, safety, and effectiveness of critical defense technologies.
“We have been using Cubit for finite element mesh generation for over a decade, and it has always worked extremely well within our Velodyne analysis workflow.”

Coreform Advantage
Coreform Flex, Coreform’s IGA software, enhances defense technology development by offering unparalleled accuracy in simulations through direct CAD integration, alongside robust capabilities for nonlinear dynamics and 3D printing optimization. This streamlines the design process and boosts the reliability and performance of critical military systems under extreme operational conditions.
Isogeometric Analysis
Coreform software leverages IGA, which provides high accuracy in simulations by directly using CAD geometries without the need for mesh generation. This is crucial for defense applications where precision in modeling and simulation of complex systems like aircraft, submarines, and weaponry is essential.
Support for Nonlinear Dynamics
Coreform Flex’s ability to handle nonlinear dynamic analysis is crucial for simulating events such as explosions, impacts, and other high-energy scenarios that are common in military applications.
Metal Plasticity
Coreform software enhances the accuracy and efficiency of simulations involving metal deformation and failure under extreme conditions. It supports nonlinear material models, which are crucial for simulating strain hardening, softening, and large deformations, making them valuable for applications like armor, military vehicles, and weapon systems.
3D Printing and Geometric Complexities
Coreform software enhances defense applications involving 3D printing by optimizing designs for additive manufacturing, helping to predict and mitigate issues, while validating the performance of printed parts under realistic conditions.
“Our production team has used Coreform Cubit extensively on a daily basis across the team for over five years. We have found Coreform Cubit to be a fully comprehensive, powerful, fast and intuitive meshing tool, which our customers often end up using as well. We have built many plugins to our software that run Coreform Cubit meshes automatically based on Python scripts. Coreform Cubit remains our preferred meshing technology.”

“The ability of Coreform Cubit to fully automate the hex meshing process by Python scripting has been vital for us to be able to perform the large volume of finite element analyses required to fully qualify the Ultra Compact Flanges as quickly as possible. We have found the Python API of Coreform Cubit to be extremely powerful and easy to use, allowing us to parametrically build the mesh, then automatically define all necessary face sets for boundary conditions and loads, and export the mesh to the FEA software.”
