Teamcenter Integration for Simulation

Simulation Process Management data model

In the Simulation Process Management data model, the idealized part file, the FEM file, and the Simulation file are stored as separate item revisions with defined relationships to the master part and to each other.

Simulation Process Management data model: CAE data are stored as item revisions related to the master model.

The following table shows the dataset for each item revision, and lists the NX or Simcenter 3D files associated with each dataset.

Item Revision Dataset Files
Master Part UGMASTER *.prt — master part file
CAE Geometry CAEGeom *.prt — idealized part file
CAE Model CAEMesh *.fem — FEM file
CAE Analysis CAESolution .sim — Simulation fileSolver-related filesResults files.afu files*.rprt — Report setup files
Reports *.docx — Report files

Assembly FEMs in Teamcenter Integration for Simulation

An assembly FEM is defined in Teamcenter as a CAE Model item revision plus a BOM view revision (BVR). The BOM view revision defines the component FEMs and subassembly FEMs that constitute the assembly FEM. For more information about BOM view revisions, see “Understanding BOM view revisions, view types, and multiple views” in the Product Structure Editor Guide, in the Teamcenter Help Library.
