  1. How To Integrate CAD and Analysis

    Due to the evolving nature of the engineering analysis and simulation market this publication no longer represents current best practice and has been archived. The document may be of historical interest and is therefore still available for purchase. Even though the integration of design and analysis activities has been, and continues to be, the subject of much development, the Working Group feels that the time is now right to describe what techniques are generally available to industry and to provide some insight into what is to come. Although it is increasingly possible to rely on a single integrated system locally, it is impractical to assume that this is sufficient globally because of the...more

  3. CCOPPS: The Interfacing of FEA with Pressure Vessel Design Codes

    Webinar Series The Interfacing of FEA with Pressure Vessel Design Codes CCOPPS Project ( more information ) View this webinar (PDF) View this webinar (audio/video) FEA is now the predominant tool used in Design by Analysis (DBA). This webinar will review current DBA procedures in popular Codes of Practice and reflect on the use of FEA and any guidance given. Challenges brought about by the historical roots of DBA procedures will be highlighted, before an open discussion and debate is held. The relevance of CCOPPS1 activities to the issues raised in this Webinar will also be highlighted. Topics for discussion will include: Should Codes of Practice reflect the popularity of FEA or remain...more

  4. Using Virtual Engineering to ensure Quality throughout a Products Lifecycle

    Virtual Engineering is routinely used as a key tool in the development, optimisation, and verification of products alongside design guidelines and prototypes testing. For a considerable part of the process the only available assessments originate from simulations, engineers must therefore ensure the virtual results are not only delivered but also effectively used. This includes meeting several criteria such as timing, accuracy, robustness, limitations and suggestions appropriate to the project stage. Setting the quality requirements in this loop has been a common responsibility for the simulation specialists and the consumers of simulation results.Now virtual engineering is becoming more accessible...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

  8. How do you get ready for 2030? You've got to start now: How simulation is changing and what you need to do to keep up

    How do you get ready for 2030? You've got to start now: How simulation is changing and what you need to do to keep up 5-minute read Monica Schnitger - August 29th 2022 In the webinar ‘The Changing World of Simulation’ Monica Schnitger, founder, president, and principal analyst at Schnitger Corporation gives us the lay of the land in terms of where we are in the world of simulation and where it looks like we’re headed. The webinar is packed with insights and ideas from the industry expert. Delivered in her clear and concise style, it will give anyone interested in charting a way forward in the rapidly changing climate that simulation engineering finds itself in plenty to think about....more

  9. 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
