  3. From SysML to Mars: Mars2020’s MBSE Infusion

    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

  4. Dr. Dennis Nagy

    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

  5. The SPDM Overkill: Too Expensive, Too Difficult, Too much Overhead and no Added Value!?!

    This presentation was made by E. Niederauer at the NAFEMS European Conferences, "Simulation Process and Data Management" & "Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) - Beyond the Solve" that were held in Munich, Germany on 2-3 December 2015....more

  6. Current & Perceived Future Challenges in Engineering Simulation Education

    Academics Symposium: Discussion Session Current & Perceived Future Challenges in Engineering Simulation Education Jim Wood, JW Analysis We are keen to receive input from both industrialists and academics in this discussion session. Even if you can’t manage along, we would be happy to accept your input before or after the event. The call presentations contains a wealth or relevant topics. Meanwhile here are a few stimulating thoughts and questions … Do industrialists see any perceived shortcomings in new graduates in this area? Do industrialists feel that they have sufficient opportunity to influence University Programme/Course Committees? Has the design pendulum swung too far in general...more

  8. Unlocking the Full Potential of Modelling and Simulation in Your Organisation

    You may be wondering, ‘Why should I be bothered about a Modelling and Simulation Strategy? I’m too busy actually doing the job! Our organisation just wants the results!’ The answer is that simulation is highly likely to be critical to your organisation’s success. It’s also highly complex and impacts the whole organisation. It consumes significant budget, resources and time throughout your product creation and delivery processes. Most importantly it impacts the performance of the products you deliver to your customers....more

  9. Hardware Requirements

    2. Hardware Requirements General Considerations In this chapter, we’ll discuss what hardware will provide you with the best finite element software performance. We will start off by providing you with an overview of the components and systems that we will be covering in more depth throughout the chapter. We will also start off with some basic guidelines to help you optimize your workstation configurations. (​Please consider that this course has been created in 2020, some hardware specific considerations may not be relevant anymore.) Processing This section will provide some guidance as to which CPUs are most ideal for FEA as well as what options to consider. We will also go into some...more
