  1. aiolas | AI-Powered Direct Question Search

    J​ust ask. P​opular Questions What industry has had the most success deploying SDM? What is the difference between an engineering simulation model and a digital twin? What is an ill-conditioned matrix? H​ow is CFD used in F1 motor-racing? M​ore Example Questions Compare and contrast the arc-length and newton-raphson methods How can you calculate the fatigue life of a weld using FEA? In what industries is multibody simulation most commonly used? What is aiolas? a​iolas is an ai-powered direct question search. It has indexed the entire NAFEMS resource centre, so you could say it knows everything that has ever been produced by NAFEMS, or at any NAFEMS event. You can ask...more

  2. Enabling Democratization By Engineers, For Engineers

    This presentation was made at NAFEMS Americas Seminar "Engineering Analysis & Simulation in the Automotive Industry: Creating the Next Generation Vehicle Accurate Modelling for Tomorrow's Technologies". The automotive engineering community is now confronting the largest technology transformation since its inception. This includes the electrification of powertrains for more efficient consumption and cleaner emissions, the reinvention of the battery with fast wireless charging capabilities and finally the advent of a fully autonomous vehicle. Compounding to these technology changes, the automotive companies design verification process is moving away from a major reliance on physical testing to...more

  3. Simulation

    6. S​imulation Input Data The final major section of the course brings together all the formerly covered information to show how it can be applied to a forming simulation model; as well as material data, other information required to describe the tooling and process are explained as well as certain numerical parameters for the relevant solver. Solvers The different solver methods are presented, including one-step and both explicit and implicit incremental approaches, noting the pros and cons of each. Example Model The final stage is to pull everything together with a simple simulation model of the Forming Limit Test. Results The results of the FLC test model are then presented, starting...more

  4. Practical Implementation of Digital Twins for Today and Tomorrow

    NAFEMS Americas hosted its biennial regional conference, formerly known as CAASE, on June 21-23, 2022, face-to-face, at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis, Indiana! The NAFEMS Americas Regional Conference 2022 (NRC22 Americas) brought together the leading visionaries, developers, and practitioners of CAE-related technologies in an open forum, unlike any other, sharing experiences, discussing relevant trends, discovering common themes, and exploring future issues, including: What is the future for engineering analysis and simulation? Where will it lead us in the next decade? How can designers and engineers realize its full potential? What are the business, technological,...more

  5. The Impact of MBE on Simulation: From Embedded Software to Digital Twins – Leveraging System Simulation Models across the Product Lifecycle

    This presentation was made at the NAFEMS Americas Seminar "Model-Based Engineering: What is it & How Will It Impact Engineering Simulation" held on the 1st of October 2019 in Columbus Ohio Resource Abstract Simulation is key in driving data-driven decision-making throughout the product design and development process, creating a virtual environment where engineers can optimize and make design trade-offs for cost and function. While simulation practices are well established in the design and development phase, physics-based models are rarely leveraged after a product is released. These physics-based simulation models provide insights into the operational conditions of the product, which cannot...more

  10. Simulation Predictions Within the Validation Domain

    Simulation Predictions Within the Validation Domain A Discussion with the NAFEMS SGMWG 14-minute read NAFEMS SGMWG - August 17th 2023 As part of an ongoing series, the NAFEMS Simulation Governance & Management Working Group present a discussion on Model Predictive Capability. As well as reading the conversation here, you can watch the video on YouTube. The discussion was hosted by Gregory Westwater (GW, Emerson Automation Solutions) and William Oberkampf (WO, consultant), both members of the NAFEMS Simulation Governance & Management Working Group GW : We are going to get little bit deeper into what the validation domain is. In the past, I've described it as the range of sizes,...more
