Welcome to Granta MI
Ansys offers enterprise-wide materials data management software to store, control, and analyze, creating your materials' gold-source. Ansys Granta MI Enterprise™ materials data management software is built on the foundation of trusted materials reference data.
You can access both the reference data and any in-house materials data that are stored in your Granta MI databases using Granta MI web applications. The applications and the data that is available to you depend on the databases that have been loaded, the licenses that have been purchased, and your authorization permissions.
The following applications are provided:
- Searching for data
- You can search for records in MI Explore by adding search terms and criteria. All records that include the search terms, and match the search criteria are returned, and can be displayed as a list, a scatter plot, or a curve.
- Favorites
- Favorite materials can be added to personal lists of records, allowing them to be accessed later. Favorites Lists can be published and made available to other users (for example, as an 'Approved Materials List').
- Custom Searches
- You can choose search filters that meet specific search requirements. Choose the properties and values you are interested in, save these criteria so you can run the same search again, and share a saved search with other users who are working on related projects.
- Import
- You can import data stored in Excel spreadsheets and text files to create Materials records. When you drag data files onto the Import workspace, or browse to specify files or folders, an import job is created.
- BoM Analyzer
- Bills of Materials (BoMs) detail the parts and assemblies that make up a
product. You can analyze BoMs either to establish their restricted substances compliance, or
their sustainability impacts.Note: This application is an additional capability that is licensed separately.
- Ansys Material Calibration
- Material Calibration enables you to quickly and easily calibrate test
data using models from the Ansys Mechanical solver. Note: This application is an additional capability that is licensed separately.
- AI+
- Ansys Granta MI Machine Learning allows you to apply machine learning techniques to data stored in Granta MI, and easily store, manage and share your
research outputs.Note: This application is an additional capability that is licensed separately.
- Data Flow Manager
- MI Data Flow Manager can be used to launch Granta MI workflows, monitor
the progress of running workflows (known as ‘workflow instances’) and perform tasks within
workflows (workflow activities), for example assigning a test to a lab, or approving a
request.Note: This application is an additional capability that is licensed separately.
- Administration
- The collection of applications that are grouped in Administration,
allow you to modify Granta MI and the data that it contains. Note: If you do not have permissions to see any of the applications this section contains, this section will not be
