  3. What is Simulation Data Management?

    What is Simulation Data Management? (Click on the image to download the document or click hereunder) This NAFEMS publication is available to download for free. What is simulation data management? Simulation is key to digital product development, manufacturing, and life cycle management. “Simulation” also known as “Computer Aided Engineering (CAE)” or “Analysis” is the use of computer tools, which are based on fundamental physical laws, to evaluate aspects of product performance. Companies everywhere want to take advantage of simulations in order to develop better products faster and cheaper. They want to extend simulations early, during product...more

  4. Systems Modeling and Simulation Community (SMS Community)

    NAFEMS Americas and Digital Engineering (DE) teamed up (once again) to present CAASE, the (now Virtual) Conference on Advancing Analysis & Simulation in Engineering, on June 16-18, 2020! CAASE20 brought together the leading visionaries, developers, and practitioners of CAE-related technologies in an open forum, unlike any other, to share experiences, discuss relevant trends, discover common themes, and explore 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, and human enablers that will take past successful developments...more

  5. What is the Endgame for Engineering Simulation?

    The presentation will delve into the transformative trends and groundbreaking technologies reshaping the Engineering Simulation industry. What are the long-term implications of technological disruptions, such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Generative AI (GenAI), on the evolving role of engineering simulation in the years to come? Are we expecting changes in the ecosystems or evolving business models? Drawing on insights from leading experts, the session will provide a forward-looking perspective on how these trends could shape the future, unlocking new opportunities and challenges for professionals and organizations in the field....more

  7. Pervasive Systems Thinking & Simulation - Who, What, Where, Why & How….

    The first webinar in this series on "Pervasive Systems Thinking & Simulation: Who, What, When, Where, Why & How?" will help to establish a fundamental understanding of Systems Thinking as a critical complement to the reductionist design approach. As part of the discussion, we will explore the need for pervasive simulation across the entire product lifecycle as a critical tool for the design, manufacture and maintenance of tomorrow’s interconnected multidisciplinary products....more

  8. Hardware Considerations for Efficient Finite Element Analysis

    In this webinar Jeff discusses what hardware configurations to pursue to get the most efficient solutions from your FEA tools. He examines various hardware components such as processors, RAM, GPUs, and hard drives and how they interact with your FEA databases and solvers. Jeff also delves into various solution algorithms and how they are affected by your hardware setup. Finally, he will explores different cluster solution options for even more capacity and speed beyond your workstation....more

  9. The Role of Engineers in Creating a Safe Environment with InstMC

    The Role of Engineers in Creating a Safe Environment with InstMC In this session, we’ll look at how safety is shaped not just by systems and processes, but by the everyday behaviours, leadership choices, and team cultures that engineers help create. Drawing on EqualEngineers’ and Dr Mark McBride-Wright’s “The SAFE Leader” approach, the webinar will include interactive elements, helping attendees reflect on what “safe” really means in modern engineering environments and what individuals and organisations can do to strengthen it. https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/f7d8dc65-9988-4969-ac1b-632d931f80c7@45deaf47-bfde-4263-a2e3-0ecb9e28ac66...more

  10. ASSESS: What's wrong with Simulation, What Happens if it is NOT Fixed, and How to Fix It

    This Presentation, ASSESS: What's wrong with Simulation, What Happens if it is NOT Fixed, and How to Fix It, is from 2018. 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
