Safety Analysis Capabilities

Streamline and Automate Functional Safety Analysis

Functional safety standards, such as ISO 26262, are critical for ensuring that safety-critical electronic systems are reliably delivering consistent performance over time, without system failures. With Ansys medini analyze, the system functions are analyzed for potential hazards and a risk classification is completed. Subsequently, safety requirements are derived to implement appropriate countermeasures to mitigate the risks.

Streamline and Automate Functional Safety Analysis

Systematic Identification and Consideration of SOTIF Risks

ISO 21448 “Road Vehicles – Safety of the Intended Functionality” (SOTIF) is a new standard that examines whether a system is sufficiently safe even in the absence of failures when hazards are caused by e.g. performance limitations of sensors or perception algorithms, unexpected changes in the road environment, etc. It enables engineering teams to avoid situations where vehicles are working as designed, but are falling short under real-world scenarios.

Systematic Identification and Consideration of SOTIF Risks

Systematic Cybersecurity Threat Analysis and Risk Assessment

The key to ensuring the cybersecurity of systems is to systematically perform threat analyses and risk assessment across the entire electronics architecture. By identifying every possible means of cyberattack — and estimating both their impact and their feasibility — Ansys medini analyze protects against damaging threats.

Systematic Cybersecurity Threat Analysis and Risk Assessment

Assess the Functional Safety of Semiconductors

Safety analysts must look beneath the surface of semiconductors to assess all failure modes and determine how a flaw in a single chip could manifest itself in a product’s overall performance.

Digital Safety Management

Safety and engineering teams can get a comprehensive view of the entire safety planning process – beyond the individual project level. By replacing traditional point-tools, Ansys Digital Safety Manager defines safety plans, controls their execution, centralizes data and monitors outcomes. It helps to construct the safety case by providing efficient automations.
