SIMULIA UK Regional Users Meeting 2011
When
From October 18, 2011 to October 20, 2011Where
Tortworth Court Hotel, South Gloucestershire (United Kingdom)[+] Show on map
What
Keynote speakers announced - Mr. Robert Lacey, from Perkins Engines and Dr. Garth Wells, from the University of Cambridge. Don't miss the opportunity to hear from these distinguished presenters.Join industry colleagues to participate in a valuable exchange of industry knowledge and networking. Topics will cover latest product enhancements as well as customer presentations offering insight into how industry leading companies are applying Abaqus, Isight and SLM to accelerate the exploration of real-world physical behavior of materials and products in order to improve performance, safety and quality of life.
Attend the two-day RUM and also join us for a one-day seminar following the RUM on 20 October. Learn how experts in engineering and academia are applying the latest simulation technology and methods to accelerate and improve product development.
Join us for our Post-RUM seminars on 20 October. The fee to attend this full day events is £50.00. Choose from two different seminars.
Seminar #1: Solving Contact Problems with New capabilities in Abaqus
Time: 08:30 - 17:30 (GMT)
Price: £50.00
Contact interactions between different parts play a key role when simulating bolted assemblies, manufacturing processes, dynamic impact events, and various other systems. Accurately capturing these interactions is essential for solving many engineering problems. SIMULIA has developed state-of-the-art contact modeling capabilities in Abaqus. Attend this seminar to learn the latest techniques and strategies for solving difficult contact problems with Abaqus. This seminar will primarily focus on Abaqus/Standard, with additional discussion of Abaqus/Explicit. Topics include advantages of the general contact capability, obtaining accurate contact pressures, insight on numerical methods, tips for improving convergence, recent enhancements to the implicit dynamics procedure for contact models, and properly representing physical details associated with contact.
Seminar #2: What can Isight do for Abaqus users?
Time: 08:30 - 17:30 (GMT)
Price: £50.00
This seminar will illustrate how Isight software can be used to create better-performing designs that work in the real world. Attendees will learn how to set up CATIA, Abaqus/CAE, Abaqus/Explicit and Abaqus/Standard models in Isight and how to combine these models with in-house codes as well as Excel spreadsheets.
The course highlights the various technologies used to drive the behavior predicted by these automated simulation tools to their design target performance. These technologies include: Design of Experiments, Approximation models, single- and multi-objective Optimization and quality engineering methods such as Monte Carlo simulation. All of these methods are combined into a single, repeatable, realistic optimal design process that deploys company resources (human, hardware and software) in the most efficient way. During the class the presenters will give live demonstrations of the Isight software.
Below is the agenda for our 2-day RUM. The 2-day event will feature customer and partner presentations as well as product updates from SIMULIA executives.
