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

The introduction of newer technologies, like powertrain electrification, active suspension, and driver assist modules (ADAS components), has made vehicle architecture more complex than ever. The ever-increasing need to bring these new technologies faster to market has led to a reduction in the automotive product development cycle. The manufacturers introduce new technologies in stages to facilitate market transition. This leads to hybridization in products and a need for variant management in vehicle platforms, for example carlines can have powertrain variants such as Internal Combustion Engine (ICE), Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV) or Plugin Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV). These result in complex...more
It’s fair to say that artificial intelligence andmachine learning—and the process modeling, IPgovernance, and data-center challenges theybring—will continue to occupy significant bandwidthin the coming year, both in the media and in ourtechnical discussions. What we mustn’t do,however, is lose sight of everything else happeningin simulation and design. Here are a few of thetopics I’m most often asked about, and what I seehappening as we enter 2026. This article appeared in the January 2026 Issue of BENCHMARK....more
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
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

This presenatation was delivered at the NAFEMS UK Seminar "Design and Manufacturing of Additvely Manufactured Components" held on the 28th of September 2017. Additive Manufacturing (AM) offers many potential benefits over traditional manufacturing techniques. It enables the generation of complex geometries and lattice structures to make lighter components, can improve thermal performance through more flexible cooling design, avoids the need for expensive tooling for short production runs and may make mass customisation a reality as customers seek more personalised products. AM applications can been found in a wide range of industries, including Aerospace, Defence, Automotive, Sports and Medical....more
This Presentation, ASSESS Congress 2017 - Looking Forward, is from 2017. NAFEMS & ASSESS members can view / download when logged in. The ASSESS Initiative is a broad reaching multi-industry initiative with a primary goal to facilitate a revolution of enablement that will vastly increase the availability and utility of Engineering Simulation, leading to significantly increased business benefits across the full spectrum of industries, applications and users. Since June 2022, ASSESS as been part of NAFEMS....more
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
