d.u.h.Group expands its simulation portfolio with Altair solutions
Simulation plays a central role in modern product development: designs are becoming more complex, variants need to be evaluated at an early stage, and development times must be further reduced. To provide even more targeted support to companies, the d.u.h.Group is expanding its existing Siemens software and engineering portfolio to include solutions from Altair.
The integration of these technologies will further strengthen the digital twin – particularly in the areas of structural analysis, optimisation, multiphysics simulation, as well as AI-supported predictions and data-driven variant evaluation.
Partnership
Altair as part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio
Siemens’ acquisition of Altair creates one of the world’s most comprehensive AI-powered industrial software portfolios. Altair complements Siemens’ technologies with expertise in mechanical simulation, high-performance computing, data science and artificial intelligence.
For businesses, this means: simplified simulation, greater automation, increased precision and an even more comprehensive digital twin.
The Altair solutions in the d.u.h.Group’s portfolio
The d.u.h.Group is launching with four established Altair solutions that perfectly complement the existing Simcenter portfolio. This expands the range of capabilities in the fields of mechanical simulation, optimisation and AI-driven analysis.
Altair® HyperMesh®
Altair® HyperMesh® is a powerful software package for modelling and meshing complex CAD geometries and large assemblies. It helps engineering teams to quickly create high-quality FE models and streamlines the entire simulation preparation process.
• Creation of precise FE models•

With the new Altair solutions, the d.u.h.Group is strengthening its position as an engineering and simulation expert and expanding the possibilities for modern, automated and AI-supported product development.
Why the d.u.h.Group is the right partner
Many companies now use Siemens or Altair solutions. However, it is not just the software that matters, but the way in which it is used. This is precisely where the d.u.h.Group comes in.
We combine state-of-the-art technologies with many years’ experience in simulation and a deep understanding of real-world development processes. Our teams support projects in sectors such as e-mobility, mechanical engineering and electronics, and know exactly what matters when it comes to practical implementation.
What sets us apart:
- practice-oriented models that replicate the real-world behaviour of components
- interdisciplinary expertise in mechanics, thermal analysis, fluid dynamics, system simulation and AI
- a seamless combination of Siemens Simcenter and Altair for end-to-end workflows without tooling gaps
- direct and straightforward collaboration with our engineering teams
- Experience gained from projects that must stand up to real-world operating conditions
For our customers, this means reliable simulations, well-founded results and solutions that deliver real added value in product development.
