Sharable

Distribute secured workflows across teams to unify methods and accelerate collaboration.

Storable

Capture and store engineering logic for consistent use and continuous improvement.

Reusable

Apply proven workflows again and again to boost speed, quality, and scalability.

Nicolas Bellomo

Thanks to Cognitive Design, we were able to rapidly design and validate a structurally optimized tank that fits within our CubeSat constraints, integrates all required functions, and meets demanding pressure requirements. It’s a game-changer for enabling component design exploration high-performance propulsion in small satellite platforms.

FAQs

Explore our frequently asked questions to understand how our software can benefit you.

What time savings come from reusable workflows?

Reusable workflows reduce project setup time by 60-80% for similar parts. Engineers apply proven optimisation configurations instantly rather than recreating boundary conditions, constraints, and settings from scratch.

What makes Cognitive Design workflows reproducible?

Cognitive Design captures all settings, parameters, and constraints in project files. Any engineer can recreate results exactly, supporting quality requirements and enabling systematic design iteration based on documented baselines.

How does Cognitive Design provide workflow transparency?

Every step in Cognitive Design is visible and auditable. Engineers see exactly how inputs translate to outputs, understand optimisation decisions, and can explain design choices to stakeholders with full parameter traceability.

How are reusable workflows created in Cognitive Design?

Engineers can save complete workflow configurations into macroblocks or sharable .cds files. This includes geometry templates, boundary conditions, optimisation settings, and manufacturing constraints. These templates accelerate future projects by eliminating repetitive setup work for similar parts.

Can workflows be shared across teams in Cognitive Design?

Validated workflows export as templates for organisation-wide use. Best practices, approved manufacturing rules, and optimisation configurations propagate across teams, ensuring consistent design quality and accelerating new project setup.

Can Cognitive Design workflows incorporate external data?

Engineers import requirements, load cases, and material data from external sources. Cognitive Design validates imported data consistency and maintains links to source information for traceability and update management.
