Simulation Ideas Lab

Pitch a simulation the community should see. Upvote the ideas you’d run. When an idea hits 5 votes, it is queued automatically for an AI-driven Ansys run.

Open Ideas

Sorted by votes — top idea auto-queues at 5 votes. One upvote per idea, per browser.

Post an Idea

Recommend one or more tools (up to 4) — or Not sure to let the AI pick.

Open to everyone. No sign-in needed — post an idea, vote on the rest. One upvote per idea, per browser.

Reviewed twice by a Rand engineer. Once after you submit, before your idea appears on the board for voting — usually the same day. Again before the AI run begins.

Plain text only. Links, code, and unusual characters are rejected automatically.

Everything posted is public and may be run and published as a blog post. Keep it to physics you could talk about over lunch — never submit proprietary designs, customer data, or anything under NDA.
