Global Leader in Computational Intelligence Provides Full-Suite Access to Support Life-Saving Aircraft Development

We're excited to announce a new In-Kind Sponsor, Altair, a global leader in computational intelligence providing software and cloud solutions in simulation, high-performance computing (HPC), data analytics, and AI. Altair will provide all GoAERO teams with free access to their full suite of state-of-the-art simulation software, empowering teams to design and build cutting-edge Emergency Response Flyers.

Altair has long been a thought-leader in AI-powered Engineering solutions for the aerospace and defense industry. So, we are pleased to support the teams competing for the GoAERO prize and their ambitious and inspiring mission of Saving Lives by pushing the boundaries of autonomous systems for aviation” said Jim Ryan, VP, Global Academic Program at Altair.

Accelerating the Development of Life-Saving Aircraft

By providing teams with professional-grade simulation and design tools, Altair is enabling more efficient, lightweight, and aerodynamically optimized aircraft designs—ultimately accelerating the development of vehicles that will save lives during natural disasters, medical emergencies, and humanitarian crises.

Key Software Tools Available to Teams

GoAERO teams will gain access to Altair's suite of design and simulation tools, including:

  • Altair® FlightStream® for aerodynamic simulation and rapid design exploration, providing invaluable insights into aircraft performance while minimizing complexity and time compared to traditional CFD solvers
  • Altair® Inspire™ for simulation-driven design and optimization, allowing teams to easily perform structural analyses, topology optimization (for lightweighting), and motion studies on their aircraft
  • Altair® PSIM™ for power electronics and motor drive design with a comprehensive circuit analysis and electric machine optimization platform featuring an intuitive drag-and-drop interface

Beyond the software itself, teams will also have access to training videos, webinar recordings, and tutorials created specifically to help users get started quickly and successfully.
