1382. 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

1383. aiolas | AI-Powered Direct Question Search

      Just 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 aiolas...more

1384. The Room Where it Happens

      The Room Where it Happens Nobody with an ounce of self-respect should encounter the use of ‘networking’ and ‘event’ in the same sentence without the temperature of their bloodstream dropping a few Kelvin. Too much explaining what you do, for a start. I actually thought I’d got explaining what I do for a living pretty much sorted, until a couple of days ago a good friend of many years standing announced on the way out of the pub that she still wasn’t really sure what it was that I did for a living. So, it’s against that background that I’m going to propose that it’s not what you know, it’s who you know that matters. But not in a jobs for the boys 21st century nepo baby kind of way. This article...more

1385. Talking Shop with Tony Abbey - Episode 15 - Random response dynamic analysis - so what is a PSD curve?

      Talking Shop with Tony Abbey Episode 15 - Random response dynamic analysis - so what is a PSD curve? Due to circumstances beyond our control, we have had to cancel this episode, and will let everyone know the rescheduled date when available. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience. NAFEMS is talking shop with Tony Abbey on a range of topics relevant to, and suggested by, the engineering analysis community. This free series is open to everyone , and we hope you can join us online. We kicked off each session with a brief presentation on the subject from Tony, and thereafter, open up the floor for written questions and thoughts from you, the audience. The sessions was moderated, allowing...more

1386. Simulation Data Management – What About my Spreadsheets?

      Simulation Data Management – What About my Spreadsheets? An approach for capturing data from simulation and modeling spreadsheets Today, many manufacturers are facing tremendous challenges related to the storage and retrieval of simulation data. Product Data Management (PDM) systems are not capable of handling the terabytes of information which are generated as a result of performing these complex simulations. Simulation Data Management (SDM) provides a mechanism for the storage, management, and retrieval of this performance-related data. The Simulation Data Management working group addresses this breakthrough technology by helping the community better understand the benefits gained from implementing...more

1388. A Diet of Kool-Aid

      I’ll get straight to the point. I don’t think there’s ever been a wider gulf between where real simulation engineers are in terms of what they do day to day and how they do it, and the messaging from at least some of the simulation software OEMs. It’s a fight we’ve all got a dog at least snarling from the sidelines in… Just possibly, there are good people on all sides. But one aspect that does nobody any good is the perception of what you could call “simulation TRLs” (Technology Readiness Levels) on non-simulation engineers and beyond. Pretty early on in the story that was SSA, a company I co-founded, Richard, my erstwhile business partner, and I realised that what we were selling were arguably...more

1389. 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

1390. 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
