Focus on: Joints & Connections
As most structures involve some sort of jointing or connection, often running into many thousands, or even millions of connections in one individual body, the analyses involved can be among the most difficult an engineer can face. As you can imagine, there has been a significant amount of activity within NAFEMS around these more
Focus on: Composites
NAFEMS has been engaged in activities related to the application of numerical methods to the analysis and assessment of composite materials for many years. We have produced a significant number of resources in the field, and we've collected some of these together here. Many of the resources below are available free for you more
Focus on: Simulation Data Management
The effective management of simulation data and process information is increasingly important as simulation becomes a core business practice and organizations rely on simulation results as the basis for business decisions. “Simulation Data Management (SDM)” is a technology which uses database solutions to enable users more
Analysis Origins - ABAQUS
May 1st 2018 from the analysis origins series by Lynn Manning In the first of this new regular series on the roots of some of the major players in the analysis world, we take a look at the origins of HKS and ABAQUS, from its beginnings in the 1970’s, to the present day. An Englishman, a Swede and an American who more
Focus on: Computational Fluid Dynamics
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is now used for a huge range of applications across all industrial areas. Its use can provide insight that is difficult, dangerous or impossible to obtain from other methods, yet the complexity of the physics of interest and numerical methods used can prevent or limit the ability to capture more
Focus on: Structural Dynamics
As you would expect, NAFEMS has produced a significant number of papers, articles, presentations and much more on the subject of structural dynamics. We've collected some of the more interesting pieces together here in this email. Many of the resources below are available free for you to download, with others accessible more
Focus on: Manufacturing Simulation
Manufacturing Simulation covers a multitude of processes, materials, techniques, and methods. Almost every engineered object in use in industry or in our homes has undergone a transforming process taking it from a raw material to a finished product. These processes change the shape and, in many cases, the properties of the raw more
Focus on: Optimisation
Optimisation (or optimiZation, depending on where you're from..) is everywhere. If you're involved in a design, you're involved in the optimisation process. And if you think you're not, then you're probably mistaken... NAFEMS has long had a significant focus on optimisation in engineering analysis and simulation, producing books, more
FEA Puzzler: a Tale of Two Analysts - Solution
This FEA puzzler, published in the April issue of Benchmark, was devised by Barna Szabo of Engineering Software Research and Development, Inc. We had a number of great responses to the challenge (business card holders are now in the post) but very few respondents spotted the singularity that Analyst B should have identified. A mesh more
FEA Puzzler: a Tale of Two Analysts
This FEA puzzler was devised by Barna Szabo of Engineering Software Research and Development, Inc. Prof Szabo will be giving a keynote presentation, “ On the Formulation and Application of Design Rules ” at the NAFEMS World Congress .The decision to including the FEA puzzler in benchmark was influenced by discussions with more
