Simulation is changing how we design and bring products to market, creating competitive advantages for companies that take advantage of these advances. We’ll talk about what we can expect in the evolving world of simulation— and ask essential questions to help you navigate these changes. Monica Schnitger - President and Principal Analyst, Schnitger Corporation...more
Advantages to verifying ultimate limit state (ULS) by numerical simulation include the checking of multiple failure forms that are not pre-determined and more accurate constitutive modelling. However, geotechnical simulation is particularly challenging due to the high non-linearity of ground constitutive behaviour and interactions with stiff structures. The next generation of the European geotechnical design standard Eurocode 7 will be the first to cover numerical simulation specifically and this webinar will provide an overview of the new rules and the reasoning behind them, together with worked examples....more
Product and System Optimisation Incorporation of Product and System Optimization (PSO) Methods into Compact, Reliable Design Cycles Workshop Description This workshop is concerned with educational & awareness issues, including identifying barriers to successful uptake of emerging and relatively mature technologies. The workshop will be structured into two parts, a discussion session where issues are identified and technical presentations where specific methods are presented along with summaries of state of the art. The technical focus for this workshop is Design of Experiments and Response Surface Analysis. The workshop will also address the following questions: • What are the...more
7. Concluding Remarks Concluding Remarks Having got a valid result from the model, what should the engineer do next if the process has failed? The steps to be taken are outlined before a discussion of the role of optimisation in both parameter target setting and robustness evaluation. Quiz Previous chapter Next chapter...more
Analytical modeling and simulations are a part of most companies' product development process these days. Typically, there are a group of highly specialized CAE analysts that perform various physics-based simulations that consume significant budget resources, and time. If done correctly, the simulations are typically conducted early in the development phase in order to determine if a proposed solution will work under the desired boundary conditions. However, this may not be the case if your company is resource limited or directs most of the CAE resources to use simulations to assess post-test failures. Model-based Systems Engineering (MBSE) processes have been implemented within the product...more
Talking Shop with Tony Abbey Episode 10 - What are 'spider' elements in FEA - why rigid and flexible types? NAFEMS is talking shop with Tony Abbey on a range of topics relevant to, and suggested by, the engineering analysis community. This free series is open to everyone , and we hope you can join us online. We kicked off each session with a brief presentation on the subject from Tony, and thereafter, open up the floor for written questions and thoughts from you, the audience. The sessions was moderated, allowing the host to put your questions and comments direct to Tony, and we also made each episode live on our youtube and vimeo channels, as well as sharing on social media. This week...more
Engineering Analysis & Simulation in the Automotive Industry: Electrification & Advanced Lightweighting Techniques Date: Thursday, April 27th, 2017 Location: Troy, MI Conference Presentations and Recordings Now Available! Access Presentations Access Presentations Recordings Overview As government demands aggressive Fuel Economy and CO2 carbon emissions requirements, it has become imperative for engineers to look for new and inventive solutions to meet the imposed demands to deliver fuel efficient clean vehicles. These are being achieved by intense efforts of electrification of powertrains, as well as aggressive weight reduction efforts imposed during the vehicle development. Automotive...more
This presentation was made at the NAFEMS Eastern European Seminar held in Budapest Hundary on November the 27th 2017. This seminar focused on the trends and the new methodologies of numerical simulation and answered the new objectives of the automotive industry.What are the new needs of the automotive industry and by what methods of numerical simulation will engineers be able to face these new elements?...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 “Combining the modelling and simulation perspectives of both systems engineering and engineering simulation can improve communications and coordination across the product development lifecycle.” The authors firmly believe that this conference tag line is not only true but is achievable today with the right infrastructure, (existing) building blocks, and product development methodologies. If so, then why has this desirable goal been elusive? The authors believe that many pervasive issues...more
Abstract The successful introduction of a simulation data management system is a complex matter and is subject to a large number of influencing variables and dependencies. Due to the time horizon, some of these variables are in a perpetual state of change and determine the course of the integration. We divided the implementation into four phases. Initially, the needs and potentials of the business units were determined and, based on these, an appropriate SDM tool selection was made in the next step. In phase three, the SDM software was piloted in the working environment and is now being rolled out worldwide. The capability for integration into the existing and future IT landscape, including...more
