Visit the world headquarters of ANSYS, global leader in engineering simulation. Here, advanced
software tools that help engineers simulate diverse physics such as fluid dynamics, structures,
electronics, semiconductors, and embedded software are planned, developed, and marketed.
In this “insider’s” tour, you will:
• Tour the workspace and meet the team that develops ANSYS Mechanical
• Learn about advanced simulation concepts and technologies
• Understand the process used to validate, verify, and demonstrate that simulation codes
deliver results that match physical testing
• Try ANSYS Discovery Live, an interactive experience in which you can manipulate geometry,
materials types, or physics inputs, then instantaneously see changes in performance
• Read posters on a variety of advanced fluids, structures, and multiphysics topics
ASME LANDMARKS
Pittsburgh is a city of engineering innovation and home to the Duquesne and Monongahela
Inclines—two official ASME Historical Landmarks. These funiculars have been in operation
for over 140 years, transporting pedestrians from the uphill neighborhoods to the industry
by the riverbanks. Designed by engineer John Endres, they are the oldest and last of the
original seventeen inclines in Pittsburgh and are examples of 19th and early 20th century
transportation—still in action today! Designated Historical Landmarks in 1977, the city views
are spectacular—offering sweeping views from Mt. Washington of the three rivers and the
beautiful city—and the engineering history speaks for itself. The landmarks are approximately
one mile in distance from each other.
