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
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.

Since June 2022, ASSESS as been part of NAFEMS....more
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
This presentation was made at the NAFEMS Americas Seminar "Model-Based Engineering: What is it & How Will It Impact Engineering Simulation" held on the 1st of October 2019 in Columbus Ohio Resource Abstract With the ever-increasing speed of technology advancements in development of cyberphysical systems, there is a corresponding struggle to grasp system complexity and to establish an efficient development process. The different verification and validation (V&V) phases are becoming an increasingly vital part in today’s engineering processes having to address stricter safety and environmental regulations. A model-based design methodology is widely adopted for verification and validation, but...more
CAE to CAD This event aimed to explore the existing, and state of the art solutions to provide feedback from CAE simulations to the CAD environment. This led to discussions which identified the limitations and barriers preventing users getting to the ultimate solution. Event Scope What feedback is required ? What data is required to support the feedback, i.e. parameters, values, precise geometry, mesh etc ? How is the feedback data managed ? How does the feedback benefit the overall design process ? Can Open Standards be part of the solution, or does it require a vendor supplied solution ? What methods are used to interpret the CAE data to provide the feedback ? How do closed loop systems...more

The Functional-Mockup-Interface has been a remarkable success story for a standard: developed in a European Research project with a first release in 2010 it has become the de-facto standard for exchanging system models between tools, and for co-simulations.FMI is by now supported by more than 140 tools and counting. In this Webinar we look at how FMI works, what its main use cases are, and why engineers responsible for simulation workflows and model-based design should know about it. A Functional-Mockup-Unit is a model that conforms to the FMI Standard. We look at co-simulation using FMUs, and what implications co-simulation has for collaborative workflows within and across organizations. We...more
1. Determining the value of FEA Goals and Usage In this section, we will introduce you to the Getting Started with Finite Element Analysis course and outline the agenda. Next, we will discuss what to consider regarding your reasons for investing in finite element analysis software, what goals to pursue, and the importance of determining usage. ROI and Suitability In this part we will provide guidance in weighing the cost of finite element analysis software versus a trial and error approach, what the alternatives are to finite element analysis, and how to determine the suitability of FEA to your organization. We will also discuss the two main categories of finite element software users...more
