Metals Material Modelling: Plasticity
How is plastic behaviour in metals simulated and used in practical engineering applications? What are potential difficulties and challenges in modelling plasticity problems using FE software? What are the potential errors and limitations of the FE plasticity solutions? This course gives you practical advice with a minimum of theory. Metals Material Modelling: Plasticity The course covers plasticity theories that are widely used to analyse practical engineering applications in metals. Mathematical formulations and equations are intentionally kept to a minimum. Emphasis will be placed on how engineering design incorporates these theories and how the FE method models plasticity. Difficulties encountered...more
A Practical Introduction to CFD
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

Companies across Portugal and Spain, and all over the world, are under pressure to accelerate product development and save costs. Numerical techniques in computational simulation offer a key in the development of complex products, such as aircraft, cars, trains, ships or offshore systems, and components and industrial processes. Many companies...more
Refining the Understanding of Systems Modeling and Simulation
Systems Modeling & Simulation Community Meeting Refining the Understanding of Systems Modeling and Simulation Tuesday 11th June 2024 | Online This community session was an interactive discussion dealing with the exploration of the intersection between systems engineering and engineering simulation. These two key technology domains play comprehensive roles in the design, development, optimization, and operational support of complex systems. The NAFEMS guide - What is SMS - introduces the concept of systems modeling and simulation and its connection with Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and Engineering Simulation. However, there is much unexplored regarding the relationship between the...more

They've Found it! Beagle 2 Lander Found on Mars after 12 Years
They've Found it! Beagle 2 Lander Found on Mars after 12 Years Well time makes fools of us all. It didn't return calls, we didn't see it around - it was as if it had disappeared off the face of the planet (well, it had technically...), but the UK led Beagle 2 lander, which touched down on Mars on Christmas Day 2003 and hadn't been seen or heard form since, has been found by NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO). boo! you found me! (images courtesy of the Beagle 2 project) The discovery goes some way to solving the long-standing mystery of what happened to the lander after contact was lost after it's descent to the surface of Mars. Images show the Beagle 2 lander in what appears to be...more
Q&A Session
Q&A Session Questions 1. What would be the first action organisations should take when considering a strategy for Engineering Simulation? First step is identifying and gathering your Stakeholders and agreeing your Goals for Simulation. Next step is to identify your detail requirements. i.e. What is the ‘to-do’ list you need Simulation to be able to address. 2. What is the most important action organisations should take to improve their Engineering Simulation Capability? Having identified your goals and requirements the most important action is to identify your current position regarding your processes, methods, tools, models etc… Where are the gaps? 3. What are some of the common issues...more
