Capture your functional, technical or HW/SW safety concepts in models integrating safety requirements, safety goals and safety architecture.

Find and solve safety-critical issues in your systems and components using inductive and deductive methods directly tied to your design models.

Evaluate the safety and reliability of your H/W design utilizing well-established standard reliability handbooks and widely used quantitative analysis methods like FT, FMEDA and FMECA.

• Solder joint reliability to assure a product will function under given conditions, for a specified time, without exceeding defined failure levels
• Plated through-hole fatigue by using computerized modeling and temperature maps instead of human interfaces for accurate finite element test results
• Strain measurement during shock and vibration testing to gather data for prediction of failure probability, root causes of failure and failure events
• Material selection to align a plastic’s properties with design and functionality requirements
• Supplier analysis for building partnerships that can consistently deliver quality products and services without interruption
• Post-assembly handling operations assessment to identify areas for efficiency improvement after production
• Semiconductor wear-out, which allows manufacturers to evaluate and predict IC failures using an approach that follows SAE ARP 6338

Validate the standard compliance of your safety concepts with automatic constraint checking; establish rich traceability for impact analysis.

Collaborate as a safety engineering team by sharing, comparing and merging safety projects; integrate with task management systems for workflow support.

• Project compare with two-way and three-way difference analysis.
• Project merge functionality for team collaboration.
• Creation of tasks/comments for arbitrary model elements.
• Navigation from tasks to elements and vice versa.

Benefit from the tight coupling of medini analyze with other Ansys tools for system design, analysis, and simulation.

Integration with Ansys SCADE Architect

With this integration, any changes in system architecture are easily and seamlessly translated from SCADE Architect to medini analyze. This tight integration eliminates the possibility of human error as electronics systems are modeled, verified and updated. The same reliable, step-by-step process will ensure the creation of system architectures that meet all relevant industry standards for safety and control — quickly and cost-effectively.

Integration with Ansys RedHawk-SC

RedHawk-SC is able to produce the IPD-XML format to import IP-design information into medini analyze for functional safety analysis on the semiconductor level. With this integration, the FMEDA workflow for semiconductor chip designs is supported.

• Rich default reporting capabilities for all created work products of medini analyze, including HARA, FMEA, FMEDA, FTA, checklists, safety goals and requirements and system design.
• Direct export of all table data to Excel.
• Customizable work product and documentation generation based on report template engine.
• Export of all project data to XML for long-term storage and post-processing.
• Support of diverse document formats such as Word, Excel, PDF, HTML and more.
