Reduced Order Modelling (ROM)

What Does Reduced Order Modelling (ROM) Do?

MeshWorks’ advanced Reduced Order Modelling (ROM) functionality transforms traditionally complex modelling tasks into a streamlined, automated workflow. With just a few guided steps, users can generate parameterized ROMs that accurately link geometric sections to corresponding beam properties. This automation accelerates simulation processes, enabling faster analysis and improved design iterations.
