Understand why physical systems fail.

Simulation-backed incident reconstruction for batteries, power electronics, cooling systems, and complex hardware.

From field evidence to root cause in hours, not weeks.

Traceable RCA report
Root-cause narrative, provenance, simulation assumptions, and corrective actions in one engineering record.

Fermi turns fragmented incident evidence into a computable investigation with simulation-backed causal reasoning.

The problem
Trusted engineering teams are drowning in investigation fragments.

PDFs, thermal screenshots, CAD revisions, disconnected simulations, partial telemetry, and scattered root-cause reports all describe pieces of the same incident. When failures happen, organizations lose weeks reconstructing what actually occurred.

Fermi turns physical incidents into computable engineering investigations. Evidence, simulation setup, causal reasoning, and corrective-action history stay connected instead of disappearing into slide decks and inboxes.

What Fermi does
From evidence ingestion to reusable engineering memory.

Ingest evidence

Upload CAD, thermal imagery, logs, sensor data, photos, failure reports, and manufacturing data. Fermi organizes the evidence into a unified incident workspace.

Reconstruct physical behavior

Generate simulation-ready workflows for thermal systems, fluid flow, conjugate heat transfer, electronics cooling, and structural interactions.

Trace causal chains

Connect operating conditions, geometry changes, manufacturing variance, thermal hotspots, cooling constraints, and material degradation.

Preserve engineering memory

Search prior incidents, simulations, remediation strategies, design failures, and corrective actions so each investigation becomes reusable.

Why teams use Fermi
Root cause analysis with physics in the loop.

Faster root cause isolation

Reduce investigation cycles from weeks to days by organizing the evidence and focusing simulation work on the hypotheses that matter.

Physics-grounded analysis

Use simulation-backed reasoning instead of disconnected speculation or dashboard-only interpretation.

Cross-team collaboration

Reliability, thermal, manufacturing, and systems teams work from the same source of truth.

Continuous learning

Turn every field failure into future design guidance and searchable institutional knowledge.

Built for modern hardware systems
As hardware complexity rises, failures become multiphysics problems.

Traditional workflows were not built for incidents where thermal, fluid, structural, manufacturing, controls, and operating conditions all interact.

Battery systems

Investigate pack, module, enclosure, thermal, and operating-condition failures.

Power electronics

Analyze derating, hot spots, component stress, airflow, and cooling limits.

Data center cooling

Reconstruct cooling failures across racks, liquid loops, and power infrastructure.

Advanced hardware

Support electronics thermal management, advanced packaging, industrial equipment, robotics, and photonics systems.

The gap in existing tools
The tools exist, but the investigation does not stay connected.

Fermi combines evidence management, multiphysics orchestration, causal reasoning, collaborative investigation, and simulation-backed validation in a single system.

Example workflow
A field inverter overheats intermittently.

The engineering team uploads enclosure CAD, telemetry logs, thermal imagery, fan specifications, and manufacturing revisions. Fermi turns the case into a traceable engineering investigation.

01

Reconstruct operating conditions

Align load, ambient, fan state, installation geometry, and event timing.

02

Identify plausible bottlenecks

Surface thermal and airflow constraints consistent with the evidence.

03

Generate simulation workflows

Create simulation-ready cases for the hypotheses most likely to explain the event.

04

Test cooling hypotheses

Compare simulated temperatures and flow behavior against telemetry and imagery.

05

Rank causal chains

Show which explanations best match the evidence and which have been ruled out.

06

Produce the report

Deliver a traceable engineering record with assumptions, provenance, and corrective actions.

Not another dashboard
Operational infrastructure for understanding physical incidents.

Fermi is not predictive maintenance software, another CAE seat, or a ticketing system for corrective actions.

It is a system for turning real-world physical failures into simulation-backed investigations that teams can revisit, search, and reuse.

A 30-minute working session
Get the rest of your day back.

Walk us through your geometry, and we'll schedule a working session around your actual validation criteria. If Fermi fits your use case, we'll proceed to a paid deployment with your team.

Step 1

Submit your use case.

Geometry or assembly files are optional. If the geometry is sensitive, request an NDA before review.

Best first pilots use one active enclosure, board, battery module, or cooling design with a concrete thermal decision.

Step 2

Book the working session.

Pick a time to confirm fit, inputs, constraints, and what the 14-day pilot should prove.
