    VOLTA and modeFRONTIER: Smarter Models, Faster Decisions, Better Results

    TRIESTE, Italy, Jan 22, 2025 – The new VOLTA and modeFRONTIER 2025R1 release is available as of date. VOLTA redesigned Data Manager for a cleaner and intuitive user experience, with new features that simplify data interaction. modeFRONTIER introduces a multi-fidelity modeling tool that integrates metamodels of varying complexity.

    New Multi-fidelity RSM tool in modeFRONTIER: Bridge the Gap Between Rapid Computation and High Accuracy

    The multi-fidelity response surface models (RSM) tool combines data from various sources, sizes, and accuracy levels into a single metamodel. It improves precision by merging knowledge extracted from high-fidelity simulations with low-fidelity data, which is quicker to produce but less accurate. This method reduces computational costs by avoiding sole dependence on high-fidelity simulations while still benefiting from their precision.

    Redesigned Data Manager in VOLTA

    The VOLTA Data Manager comes with an intuitive and user-friendly interface. These enhancements improve the user experience and create a strong base for a faster, more efficient, and scalable platform for the future.

    One can use keyboard shortcuts to select multiple items, making file management faster. Drag-and-drop functionality help upload files or move them between folders with ease. The right-click function opens the item actions menu, improving both navigation and efficiency. In addition, the new shortcuts open frequently used items without needing to make duplicates.

    VOLTA Modeler: Import BPMN files from Third-party Software

    VOLTA now offers the capability to import business process model and notation (BPMN) workflows, that have been modeled using third-party software, directly into the VOLTA Modeler environment. This feature boosts efficiency by removing the need to rebuild models manually and simplifies workflow, saving time.
