  1. Strategies for Deploying Expert and Casual CAE Tools

    Strategies for Deploying Expert and Casual CAE Tools NAFEMS Webinar Series View webinar slides (PDF) (NAFEMS Members) Abstract CAD vendors often maintain that a CAD-based approach driven by CAD designers will expand the use of CAE throughout the engineering organization. Meanwhile, experienced CAE analysts understand that casual CAE users without rigorous engineering knowledge are unlikely to be able to realize meaningful results. We contend that engineering organizations should deploy CAE to optimize their engineering process, and that CAE should be used as much as practicable. However, success is not guaranteed by mere software acquisition. Engineering organizations must foster an environment...more

  3. 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

  4. 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

  6. Impact of a Strong AC Electromagnetic Field on a Conductor Mesh: Design Guidelines and Safety Assessment

    Abstract To design installation close to high-power AC electromagnetic device, a prediction of the electromagnetic coupling may be mandatory. The present device is composed of different high current multi-turn coils located near the installation, a conductor mesh. At first, the interactions between the different coils are assessed. The Maxwell-Ampère equation is solved through the magnetic vector potential formulation. Thanks to this potential, the magnetic induction field is deduced together with the induced current in the coils. Using a superposition principle, it is possible to build the coupling matrix which describes the self-inductance of each coil and the mutual inductances linking the...more

  10. Design Integration Symposium - North America

    Symposium on the Integration of Analysis in Product Design Integrating analysis with the product design process is one of the most talked about topics in the analysis community today. Software vendors, industrial users, and engineering managers all realize the vital importance of timely integration of analysis in the design process, but the visions, opinions and priorities placed on this can vary from one company to the next. The reality is that many questions remain unanswered - What importance do industry leaders place on design integration? How quickly will we see the transition to a fully-integrated process? How will the industry handle the obvious challenges now and in the future? ...more
