Validation of Numerical Analysis in Geotechnical Engineering A seminar for senior managers, technical reviewers and project managers in partnership with NAFEMS, the International Association of the Engineering Modelling, Analysis and Simulation Community. Overview Numerical analysis using finite element and finite difference methods has become a mainstream design tool within geotechnics in the last decade or so. This is due to the development of sophisticated yet accessible 2D and 3D computer programs that can realistically model the ground and adjacent structures. With increasing reliance placed on this type of complex modelling effective training in the use of this technology and effective...more

Verification & Validation – An Introduction 7-minute read NAFEMS SGMWG - August 26th 2021 In the first of a series, the NAFEMS Simulation Governance & Management Working Group hosted a discussion introducing the concept of Verification and Validation. As well as reading the conversation here, you can watch the video on YouTube, as well as listen to the audio on the NAFEMS Podcast. The discussion was hosted by Chris Rogers, Chair of the NAFEMS Simulation Governance & Management Working Group, alongside members of the group, William Oberkampf (WO), Gregory Westwater (GW), Keith Meintjes (KM), and Alexander Karl (AK). How would you define the terms ’Verification’ and Validation’? Q (GW)...more
first beta version of the VMAP Standard has now been released, and is available at vmap.eu.com . VMAP is an open and free standard for the transfer of information between simulations within a process chain, no matter what software is used to carry these out. This provides engineers with a fast solution to pass information from one calculation to another without needing to create one-off interfaces. VMAP provides a detailed and well-defined open-source standard, accompanied by a software library of input/output tools to read/write the VMAP data files and enable fast development of transfer operations between different software packages. Many software companies and suppliers have included, or are...more

From SysML to Mars: Mars2020’s MBSE Infusion Mars2020, NASA’s next Mars Rover inherited a majority of Mars Science Laboratory (MSL)’s Flight hardware and software. It also inherited the technical baseline described in disparate presentations, spreadsheets, document repositories, emails, and intelligent minds that have long left the project. The Mars2020 Systems Engineering leadership wanted to define their technical baseline in an integrative, data driven manner, that would incorporate the inherited design with the new science instruments and Martian sample caching system. The team chose to leverage advancements in MBSE to garner a better understanding of the complexities facing the mission....more
Abstract Discussion: What are the Opportunities & Obstacles for More Engineering Simulation in Oil & Gas? Engineering simulation is being used more extensively now in oil and gas, but the industry still lags behind the traditional simulation industry leaders of aerospace and automotive. In this discussion, the panelists (consisting of the event presenters and event sponsors) will offer their expert opinions and insights into where simulation has had the greatest impact so far and what are the key obstacles (technical, cultural) to more widespread effective use of simulation in oil and gas. About the Speaker Dr. Dennis Nagy, NAFEMS Americas Steering Committee & Principal at Beyond CAE Dr....more
