Abstract Analytical modeling and simulation of systems are traditionally done at the component or module levels and usually involve complex 3-D simulations. These types of simulations take a long time to solve but give detailed design direction. In addition, these types of simulations are typically conducted after the project gets into the development life cycle phase. Within a Systems Engineering strategy, modeling and simulation of systems are starting to be done at the product level and usually involve simplified 0-D or 1-D models. These types of simulations run very fast but only give general design direction. In addition, these types of simulations are typically needed during the planning...more
Abstract The competition for the design and manufacturing of the best-in-class automotive products is more intense than ever due to technological advances and increased customer expectations. As a result, companies across the automotive industry are looking for innovations to improve their product design and manufacturing cycle time, cost and quality, and CAE simulation innovations and their effective implementations have long been proven to be a key competitive advantage. CAE organizations are also facing pressure to become more competitive and efficient. CAE Management and technical experts must constantly address an ever-growing demand to deliver more analytical product design and manufacturing...more
Tutorial - Bending of a deep curved beam 3D Statement of Purpose The main purpose of this example is to demonstrate the use of 2-D plane stress elements and beam elements to model a curved uniform bar of rectangular cross section. The maximum tensile stress and the maximum compressive stress in the beam will be compared with a theoretical solution. Geometry r o = 9.1mm, r i = 7.0 mm, h = 2.0 mm Analysis Type(s) Linear material, static, small displacement. Material Steel, with Young’s Modulus = 200,000 N/mm 2 , Poisson’s Ratio = 0.3. Loading A bending moment 200Nmm applied at the top end. Boundary Conditions The bottom end is fully fixed while the top end is free. Target Solution...more

Hendrix, Van Halen, Newton and Einstein by The CAE Guy Back in the 1980s, when I was 16 or 17, I was arguing/discussing the “best” rock and roll guitarist off all time with a high school classmate of mine. While I remember it was a heated “debate” where we agreed to disagree: Long story short [1], I was advocating for Eddie Van Halen and he was advocating for Jimi Hendrix. For a little background, my classmate was a guy that seemed, at the time, to be really into rock and roll as he had the look and feel of a head banger [2,3]. I, on the other hand, was, how should I say this … a naïve computer geek and was just coming aware of the larger world around me. Sure, I had been listening to disco...more
NAFEMS Webinar Series Practical Introduction to CFD Wednesday, 7 September 2011 Overview CFD is a computer-based simulation of predicting what will happen when fluids (gases & liquids) flow. CFD complements experimental and analytical approaches by providing an alternative cost-effective mean of simulating real-life flow problems. CFD has now become a leading research, educational, and design tool. It is being used to better understand physical events and processes and perform numerical experiments. Most importantly, it has now become a design tool by providing capabilities to facilitate design optimisation, reduce design bottlenecks and improve engineering performance, enhance communications,...more
CAASE18: The Conference on Advancing Analysis & Simulation in Engineering NAFEMS Americas and Digital Engineering (DE) teamed up to present CAASE , the Conference on Advancing Analysis & Simulation in Engineering, on June 5-7, 2018 in Cleveland! CAASE18 brought together the leading visionaries, developers, and practitioners of CAE-related technologies in an open forum, unlike any other, to share experiences, discuss relevant trends, discover common themes, and explore 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
