  4. Real Life AI @ SNCF:The Impact Of Vegetation On Railway

    Engineering sciences and technology, as any other branch of sciences and technology, is experiencing the data revolution. In the past models were more abundant than data, too expensive to be collected and analyzed at that time. However, nowadays, the situation is radically different, data is much more abundant (and accurate) than existing models, and a new paradigm is emerging in engineering sciences and technology. Advanced clustering techniques not only helps engineers and analysts, they become crucial in many areas where models, approximation bases, parameters, … are adapted depending on the local (in space and time senses) state of the system. Machine learning is also helping for extracting...more

  5. What is SDM - The core requirements

    T​hese slides were presented at the NAFEMS European Simulation Data Management Conference 2011 The conference was held in Munich, Germany, on 15–16 November 2011....more

  6. Managing Simulation Quality and Data at the UK Atomic Weapon Establishment

    This presentation was made at the 2019 NAFEMS World Congress in Quebec Canada Resource Abstract In a Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT) era, simulation has widespread use across Physics, Material Science and Engineering at the UK Atomic Weapons Establishment (AWE). The engineering analysis team covers a wide scope of simulation topics including FEA/FVA of solid mechanics, structural dynamics, hypersonic CFD, thermal and blast effects. This in turn creates a broad range of data from a variety of engineering software tools. With increasing emphasis on coupled Multiphysics techniques and parameter sensitivity studies, an enormous amount of data is generated and is increasingly more difficult...more

  7. Techniques for modelling joints: A review of Static Design Approaches

    Structures are built-up from components connected by joints. For a structure with a vibration duty there are many uncertainties: - Can static joint design be used for dynamic design? - What is the dynamic stiffness of a joint? - How much damping is provided by a joint? - How do you model the dynamics of joints in simulation codes? - Can joints be designed to assist structural dynamic? - How repeatable and predictable is the behaviour of a joint? - Can joints be simplified to reduce weight and complexity? Research into these issues has received growing attention and some answers are now available. This workshop introduced the problems, the current knowledge, some approaches and some solutions....more

  8. AI in Engineering & impact on validation

    The presentation titled "AI in Engineering & Impact on Validation: Standards and Best Practices for Ensuring the Credibility of Numerical Simulations" was delivered by Vivien Clauzon and Raphaël Meunier. It focused on integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) in engineering, particularly in high-performance computing and numerical engineering at Michelin. The presentation highlighted Michelin's three domains for sustainable growth: Tires, Around Tires, and Beyond Tires, focusing on a range of services from automobile to mobility intelligence. The speakers emphasized Michelin's approach to ensuring quality products, incorporating knowledge, product specifications, design, labs, and market considerations....more

  9. Uncertain Knowledge: A Challenge Problem

    Uncertain Knowledge: A Challenge Problem 7-minute read NAFEMS Stochastics Working Group - June 16th 2022 The NAFEMS Stochastics Working Group (SWG) has developed a guide entitled "What is Uncertainty Quantification (UQ)?" [1] describing the basic steps and definitions of Uncertainty Quantification, it has also hosted several discussions and webinars around the topic. Recently, the group updated the definitions of the Probabilistic Analysis [2] as part of the NAFEMS Professional Simulation Engineer (PSE) certification and is now working on developing related training and educational resources. In addition, the SWG has launched several challenge problems [3] in the area of probabilistic analysis...more
