Altair Inspire User Guide

What's New
Discover new features and enhancements.
Get Started
New to Inspire? Learn the basics here.
Tutorials
Start using Inspire with our interactive tutorials.
Parametric Modeling
Create parametric sketches, geometry, and PolyNURBS with construction history and variables.
Implicit Modeling
Create implicit models with primitives, lattices, point clouds, fields, offsetting, Booleans, inverting, smoothing, morphing, and filleting.
Structures
Set up your model and run a structural analysis or optimization.
Motion
Set up and run a motion analysis, plot the results, and export the results.
Fluids
Prepare and run a computational fluid dynamics simulation.
Design Explorer
Evaluate designs by using geometric variables and applying a design-of-experiments (DOE) or optimization method. We recommend fully constraining your sketch when sketch variables are used in the design exploration.
Manufacture
Set up and run a basic porosity or thinning analysis.
Print 3D
Prepare and run an additive manufacturing simulation, and export a file for 3D printing.
- Selective Laser Melting (SLM)
  Use the Selective Laser Melting process for additive manufacturing.
- Binder Sinter
  Use the Binder-Sinter process for additive manufacturing.
  - Print Part (Sinter)
    Select parts to print and assign materials for binder sintering.
  - Oven
    Configure the oven. You can select a default oven or choose from several standard ovens.
  - Orientation (Sinter)
    Orient the part in relation to the oven base.
  - Setter
    Automatically generate a virtual ceramic setter.
  - Analyze (Sinter)
    Run a binder-sintering analysis, then view and plot the results.
  - Green Part
    Export a green part as a .stl file. You can select from several simulation runs.
Rendering
Adjust the materials and environment of objects in the scene to create a photorealistic image.
Inspire Python API
Learn how to access the Inspire Python API including online help, quick start demos, and the Extension Manager.
Reference
View the glossary, frequently asked questions, and errors and alerts.
Keyboard Shortcuts and Mouse Controls
