  1. What Simulation Engineers Need to Know About MBSE – Bridging Two Worlds

    The growing adoption of Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) presents both opportunities and challenges for the simulation community. As organizations strive for more integrated digital engineering workflows, Simulation Engineers are increasingly expected to align with MBSE practices—yet the terminology, methods, and objectives can differ significantly between the two domains. In this ASSESS Insight webinar , Alexander Busch, Rod Dreisbach, and Frank Popielas present a refined version of the talk originally delivered at the NAFEMS World Congress 2025: “ What Simulation Engineers Need to Know About MBSE ”. This updated presentation incorporates feedback from the live event and introduces enhanced...more

  2. Physical Test Data for Simulation Engineers

    Physical Test Data for Simulation Engineers The NAFEMS Education and Training Working Group wishes to commission a new publication titled “Physical Test Data for Simulation Engineers". Intended Readership This will be a book aimed at simulation engineers to provide a better understanding of the accuracy, calibration, uncertainty and limitations of physical test data. The book will address laboratory material data needed in FE simulations and test data used to validate FE solutions. Content The following topics are suggested: Types of experimental errors Quantification of errors, precision and accuracy Measurement and propagation of uncertainties Simplifications in simulation models Sensitivity...more

  4. V&V Process across Structural Simulation in Airbus Operations

    Presentation made by J. L. D. L. Gandaraat the NAFEMS Spain Seminar "Verification & Validation - Building Confidence in Simulation for Engineering Design" that was held in Madrid, Spain on the 18th of February 2016. Seminar Description It is becoming increasingly important these days that engineering simulation used for design answers the question: how do we know that the results are reasonably correct? The important quality assurance tools used to answer this are the processes of verification and validation and these need to be applied to the conceptual, mathematical and computational models used in engineering simulation. In simple terms verification is the demonstration that the mathematics...more

  5. Sponsorship Opportunities

    Sponsorship Join us NAFEMS would like to extend an invitation to your company to be part of this conference focused on delivering information and insights on critical topic areas related to engineering simulation. Sponsorship of "Confidence in Engineering Simulation: The Next 10 Years of CAE in Mexico," offers a unique opportunity for maximum exposure to a highly targeted audience of delegates, who are all directly involved in engineering analysis and simulation. Team with NAFEMS As the International Association for the Engineering, Modeling, Analysis and Simulation Community, NAFEMS is widely recognized as the leading independent source of information and training for engineering analysts...more

  6. How To Use STEP Geometry for Engineering Analysis

    How To Use STEP Geometry for Engineering 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 This guide is aimed at system managers who are implementing and supporting data exchange by purchasing STEP interfaces and users who want to communicate with customers and/or suppliers about using STEP for data exchange. The guide covers: What STEP interfaces are available What the parts and conformance classes cover How to choose which part and conformance class...more

  7. Renewal & Upgrade

    Renewal Any assessment resulting in certification has limited currency. When granted, certification is valid for a period of three years. Three years from the date of certification individuals who are registered PSE will be contacted by the PSE Administrator and asked if they would like to remain on the PSE Register. Candidates have three options: Candidates who wish to remain on the PSE Register and maintain their existing Technical Areas and level of certification are required to submit a PSE renewal form and confirm how they are maintaining their Continuing Professional Development. Candidates who wish to remain on the PSE Register and extend their range of Technical Areas or level of...more

  8. A Comparison and Synergies Between SPDM and a Popular "Democratization" Platform

    This presentation was made by J. Betts, D. Silver, S. Dewhurst at the NAFEMS European Conferences, "Simulation Process and Data Management" & "Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) - Beyond the Solve" that were held in Munich, Germany on 2-3 December 2015....more

  9. Essentials of Injection Molding Physics

    Essentials of Injection Molding Physics A​ccess seminar webpage Deep dive into injection molding science The seminar will delve into the intricate phenomena associated with the injection molding process. It will place a significant emphasis on comprehending the issues related to parts (such as appearance, shrinkage, warpage, weld lines, burns, etc.), and how these issues correlate with the properties of materials (whether amorphous, semi-crystalline, filled, or unfilled) and the molding process itself. The seminar will not fit the needs of beginners in the field. Where we'll meet The seminar is scheduled for the 5th and 6th of September 2024 at the Hotel Crown Piast in Kraków, Poland. The...more
