  3. Simulation Data and Process Management

    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

  4. Software Selection

    F​unctionality In this section, we will address one of the most important aspects of finite element package selection: functionality. We will discuss what factors determine the functionality of the software and discuss how to weight finite element software functionality against your needs. Geometry creation Solid modeling and geometry preparation make up a key step in the finite element modeling process. Here we will discuss what geometry creation and modification tools are necessary to the finite element software user. We will also discuss various geometry import options and steer you toward the most ideal approach. FEA Packages In this section, we will explore the differences between...more

  5. Platform-Independent Integration of SysML with 1-D Simulation

    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 Model-based systems engineering uses representations of system requirements, behaviors, and architectures to communicate complex system specifications among engineering teams and their stakeholders. Systems modeling languages capture these representations to help organize a wide variety of engineering activities, many of whom develop discipline-specific simulation models. Many simulation models are built with equation-based languages, containing detailed behavior specifications and analytics...more

  6. Leveraging LLMs for Automated Post-Processing of HPC Simulation Output Logs

    These slides were presented at the NAFEMS World Congress 2025, held in Salzburg, Austria from May 19–22, 2025. Abstract The rise of Large Language Models (LLMs) has opened transformative opportunities across industries and engineering simulation processes. This session delves into the innovative use of LLMs in post-processing simulation software output logs, addressing a critical challenge for end users and enterprise organisations alike: extracting actionable insights efficiently. Enterprises today generate terabytes of simulation data daily, and there is an increasing need for automation in retrieving simulation results, classifying errors (e.g., mesh inaccuracies, memory limitations, licensing...more

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

    ASSESS Insight Webinar What Simulation Engineers Need to Know About MBSE – Bridging Two Worlds Tuesday, 11 November 2025 | Online 07:00 (Los Angeles) | 10:00 (New York) 15:00 (London) | 16:00 (Berlin) 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...more

  8. How to Effectively Communicate Innovative Ideas

    How do I make sure management understand my results? How can I present technical information to non-technical colleagues? How do I make my conference presentation really stand-out? Get the answers to these questions and more with this transformative course. Using techniques and materials which have been adopted by many of the major companies in the engineering analysis and simulation industry, this course will supercharge your communication skills and give you a unique advantage. How to Effectively Communicate Innovative Ideas You’re the expert. The thing is, many of the people making final decisions on hardware and software investments, and signing-off your final designs, are not. You need...more
