  2. Vom Wunschergebnis zur Lösung - mittels Machine Learning in Minuten zum CAD-Konzeptentscheid

    T​hese slides were presented at the NAFEMS DACH Conference 2024. The conference was held in Bamberg, Germany, on 10–12 June 2024....more

  3. Effectively Communicating Innovative Ideas: Why Perspective Is Important

    If you look at the back of the quarter from New Hampshire, you will see a picture of the Old Man of the Mountain. Prior to its collapse in 1997, this naturally occurring rock formation had once depicted the profile of a man’s face when viewed from a certain perspective on the ground. Signs directing you to a specific viewing area were placed along the local highways. While standing at one of the designated viewing areas you could see the profile (pictured on the right). If you were standing anywhere other than one of the designated viewing areas, the profile was lost to you and looked like any other mountain; The proper meaning requires the right perspective....more

  4. What Are the Chances of the Ship Snapping? Considerations When Using Probabilistic Analysis

    NAFEMS Americas and Digital Engineering (DE) teamed up (once again) to present CAASE, the (now Virtual) Conference on Advancing Analysis & Simulation in Engineering, on June 16-18, 2020! 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

  5. What are Particle and Meshless Methods?

    There are still some problems that FE methods do not solve efficiently or accurately. In particular, FE methods are not ideally suited for solution of dynamic problems involving a large amount of deformation because an accurate solution requires regularly-shaped elements and the movement of the nodes can lead to mesh distortion and badly-shaped elements. One approach to avoiding the problems associated with mesh deformation is remeshing, where anew mesh of regularly shaped elements is created during the solution process. This approach is computationally expensive and has potential loss of accuracy as it requires the mapping of the solution from one mesh to the next which is why meshless or particle...more

  7. Promoting HPC for the Benefit of UK Industry

    Presentation made by A. Jones at the NAFEMS UK Seminar "Improving High Performance Computing (HPC) Adoption in Engineering Simulation" that was held in Manchester, UK on the 10th of February 2016. Seminar Description In recent years, a new business cliche has emerged: "To out compute is to out compete". In essence, the use of high performance computers for engineering simulation can help speed up design turnaround times, reduce time to market and increase competitiveness. The purpose of this seminar was to help promote the adoption of high performance computing throughout the engineering supply chain, from independent consultants to SMEs and large firms....more

  8. Electrification in CAE

    This presentation was made at the NAFEMS Americas Conference "Simulation in the Automotive Industry: Creating the Next Generation Vehicle" held on the 16-18 March 2021. The automotive engineering community is now confronting the largest technology transformation since its inception. The demand to manufacture cleaner, safer, and smarter vehicles, along with providing an overall enhanced driving and ride experience, has never been higher. As a result, engineering teams must discover, evaluate, and successfully implement leading-edge technology and methods to produce reliable, effective results. Hence, the challenges for automotive engineers are enormous and require a significant increase in the...more

  9. Using Digital Twins to Accelerate Product Development – A Beginners Guide

    Abstract Digital Twins have predominantly been applied to predictive maintenance of high value, low downtime assets. However, realising their full benefit as part of the product development process remains unclear. The main challenge for simulation teams is not creating good models, but the establishment of a new workflow that can make use of connected product data. Indeed, creating a compelling case for a product to be connected in the first place, and provide meaningful data, can be a major hurdle. To overcome these challenges, a proof of concept is initially required to clearly demonstrate benefit to the business, and ultimately the customer. Simulation and product development teams are well...more
