DEVELOPING PRACTICAL SOLUTIONS FOR YOUR ENGINEERING CHALLENGES. WE CARE!

A Team of Numerical Simulation Experts

On a daily basis, DAES teams contribute to the definition of advanced engineering solutions through equipment and component simulation. Working closely with the customer’s project teams, we take charge of model definition, studies, optimization iterations, scenario analysis and the development of specific tools or methods that can be used for future evolutions.  

Our teams are involved in the study of all physical/multiphysical phenomena : mechanics, fluidics, thermics, optics, electromagnetism, dynamics, seismics… and carry out numerical simulations with ANSYS, ABAQUS to predict a system’s behavior numerically (i.e. by minimizing or even eliminating long and costly physical test phases).

In the words of Cyril Kharoua, CEO of DAES: “At the beginning of my career, we had this saying that nobody believed in digital simulations except the person who did them, and that everybody believed the test except the person who did it… today it’s almost the opposite!”

Numerical Simulation in Structural Mechanics

From linear static analysis in small deformations to non-linear analysis in large deformations using materials with plastic or hyperelastic behavior, taking into account complex contacts between parts, mechanical analysis is at the heart of our business. The numerical representation of experimental mechanical tests (bending, compression, tension, etc.) in the form of numerical simulations will enable you to evaluate the performance of your products and optimize their behaviour while substituting materials, adding coatings or improving geometry.

Our specialized engineers provide you with their expertise and sector-specific knowledge, using state-of-the-art tools: ANSYS, ABAQUS, Code_aster, etc.

Frequently asked questions

DAES (Development of Advanced Engineering Solutions) is an engineering and consulting company specialised in numerical simulation, founded in 2012 and based in Geneva (Petit-Lancy). We operate as a virtual testing laboratory: we define and carry out your numerical tests and integrate them into your digital chain.

Finite element analysis (FEA), computational fluid dynamics (CFD), thermal, electromagnetic, dynamic and seismic simulation, as well as multiphysics coupling. We also develop custom applications and scripts to automate your studies.

Civil nuclear and fusion (including ITER), energy and cleantech, watchmaking, medtech and biotech, mobility, aerospace and sport.

Yes. We carry out analyses according to RCC-M, RCC-MRx and ASME III, notably with ANSYS and our M-fem application. DAES is ISO 19443 (nuclear sector) and ISO 9001 certified.

Our headquarters are in Petit-Lancy (Geneva), with offices in Basel and Winterthur and a French subsidiary, DAES France, in Archamps. We work with clients and institutes in Switzerland, France and internationally.
