What We Do

Deep analysis capabilities for complex defence engineering.

Our approach combines design understanding, material behaviour, manufacturing considerations and system performance. The objective is not simply to run an analysis, but to help engineers make better design decisions earlier in the lifecycle.

01

Structural & FEA

Stress, deformation, nonlinear behaviour, impact, crash and shock studies to identify critical load paths and design hot spots.

02

Thermal & CFD

Temperature fields, pressure and velocity gradients, dead zones and fluid-structure interaction for thermal and flow-critical systems.

03

Dynamics & Vibration

Modal, transient, multi-body and vibration-related studies, including flexible-body models linked with system behaviour.

04

Fatigue & Fracture

Assessment of fatigue hot spots, crack-sensitive regions, life prediction and the influence of operating and material variability.

05

EMI / EMC & Multiphysics

Coupled electromagnetic, thermal and structural analysis for generators, motors, sensors, antennas, PCBs and related equipment.

06

Failure & Life Assessment

Failure analysis and remaining-life assessment to support repair, reuse, life-extension and engineering disposition decisions.

Engineering Depth

Simulation that supports design — not analysis in isolation.

ProSIM’s defence work uses computer models of products, systems and processes for virtual product development, virtual prototyping and virtual testing. Where required, analytical models can be correlated with physical prototypes and tests against applicable military or customer specifications.

Design optimisation — reduce weight while improving performance, life and reliability.
Model development — build simulation models around the products' actual operating physics.
Design verification — use simulation to investigate critical load, thermal, vibration and failure cases.
Certification support — interface with relevant agencies as part of design and qualification activities.
Systems We Support

Across air, land, naval and defence electronics.

Our existing defence portfolio spans mechanical systems, propulsion-related equipment, naval systems, UAVs and defence electronics.

Engineering Process

A collaborative workflow built around the design problem.

The strongest simulation results come from understanding how the component is designed, manufactured, operated and tested. Our engagement model can be aligned to a specific engineering mission or a broader R&D programme.

01

Define — translate the requirement, load case, operating envelope and design intent into an engineering problem.

02

Model — create the appropriate geometry, material, boundary condition and system-level representation.

03

Simulate — apply FEA, CFD, dynamics, thermal, fatigue or multiphysics analysis as appropriate.

04

Optimise — turn analysis findings into practical design changes for performance, life, reliability or weight.

05

Correlate — where applicable, compare with prototype or test results and close the engineering loop.
