  1. Simulation of Real World Events for ADAS - PCA Feature Validation

    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

  2. Hardware Considerations for Efficient Finite Element Analysis

    Hardware Considerations for Efficient Finite Element Analysis Overview In this webinar, we discussed what hardware configurations to pursue to get the most efficient solutions from your FEA tools. We examined various hardware components such as processors, RAM, GPUs, and hard drives and how they interact with your FEA databases and solvers. We also delved into various solution algorithms and how they are affected by your hardware setup. Finally, we explored different cluster solution options for even more capacity and speed beyond your workstation.

CAASE20 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, and human enablers that will take past successful developments...more

  4. Are We Ready for Foundational Models in Engineering?

    Are we Ready for Foundational Models? Astrid Walle Data Science and Simulation Expert Siemens Energy The presentation examined the readiness of the CAE universe for the adoption of foundational models, exploring what these models truly mean for engineering design and simulation. Beginning by outlining a vision for AI in engineering, questioning whether we can provide a base for foundational models given our current state in data handling and whether we can make the most of their transformative potential. Discussion progressed to the requirements for implementing these models, such as simulation data management and computational capabilities, and an assessment of the status quo in research...more

  5. What to do About Global Warming: Modeling the Problem and Solutions

    Abstract Using 0-D global physics models of global temperature dependence on carbon-dioxide emissions and atmospheric lifetime we demonstrate that eliminating carbon-dioxide emissions is insufficient to prevent exceeding the global warming ?tipping point? of 2 degrees Celsius. We examine other means to limit global warming including carbon dioxide sequestration and increasing earth?s albedo. The latter is shown to be potentially much more cost-effective in managing global warming, and its positive effects can be observed immediately....more

  8. Mohr's Circle - Talking Shop with Tony Abbey

    Mohr’s circle seems to be a very unpopular topic in structural mechanics courses! Some view it as: arcane, procedural, confusing, no use in practical engineering Why bother with Principal Stresses, Maximum shears etc. – Von Mises is king!! Maybe you don’t want to go back to graphs. In this webinar Tony Abbey talks about why Mohr’s circle is useful today to help understand: What are stress transformations? Why do them? Tony's trying to give Mohr a boost here!...more

  9. What are the Chances of the Ship Snapping? - Considerations When Using Probabilistic Analysis

    In the April 2019 issue of NAFEMS BENCHMARK magazine, two challenge problems are presented. The first one consists of two normal distributions, producing an analytical (theoretical) solution. The second one contains several distributions (normal, uniform and lognormal), and therefore an exact solution is not available. At the NAFEMS World Congress 2019 these problems were discussed and a few solutions were presented. In this presentation these solutions and additional ones are discussed in combination with the theoretical background and the pitfalls of these methods....more
