BEN MARRANT | ZF

Lead NVH Engineer

Ben Marrant is a lead NVH engineer at ZF Wind Power. As a youngster, he was fascinated by everything involving aviation but most of all with helicopters. Following his interests, he started taking flying lessons with ultralights but to get a deeper understanding he pursued aerospace engineering studies at TU Delft. His master’s thesis involved simulations with a non-linear multibody code which was developed at his time at university. The subject was the investigation of aero-elastic stability of a helicopter rotor applied to a small two-seated helicopter called the Masquito M80. The combination of aerodynamics and structural dynamics was what intrigued him the most. He graduated with a Master’s in Aerospace Engineering. After his graduation, he was asked to remain working at university as a Research Associate. Two main projects in which he was involved required him to work on aero-elastic wind turbine simulation codes in a.o.- the European funded project, “Stability and Control of Wind Turbines” and the Dutch funded project, “Smart Dynamic Rotor Control of Wind Turbines”. After his passion for understanding the flight mechanics of helicopters, the switch to wind turbines can be simply explained as: “a wind turbine is nothing else but a helicopter standing on its side”. He then started working for Hansen Transmissions, later acquired by ZF, as a technology engineer working on multibody simulations of multi-megawatt gearboxes for wind turbines using the SIMPACK software. By being part of one of the top drivetrain suppliers in the world, he has a front row ticket in experiencing the amazing evolution the wind industry has seen in the past decades and at the same time being able to contribute to a better world. For Ben, the combination of working in the wind industry and being able to use state-of-the art codes for vibro-acoustic analysis is what makes this a very special environment. At ZF we put a lot of focus in validating our simulation models using measurements on these large powertrains to constantly improve the predictions for future product developments. What really interests him is to reduce complex vibro-acoustic problems into more understandable guidelines so that a product development department can design a solution.

Sylvestre CANCEIL | Procter & Gamble Services SA/NV

Group Scientist

Sylvestre is a Group Scientist within The Procter & Gamble Company’s Corporate Digital Innovation Organization. He was born in Tunisia, but is a French National. He graduated from the Ecole Nationale Superieure de Chimie de Paris as a chemistry engineer and completed a Diplome d’Etudes Approfondies in Organometallic Chemistry before joining Procter and Gamble in the UK in 1996 where he first was involved in Powder Laundry Detergent Formulation. This is where he started his Modeling and Simulation journey, dabbling into Design of Experiments as well as computational chemistry and mesoscale modelling.  He then transferred to Belgium to work on software development before coming back to his first love of research and development in the Pack(ag)ing Modelling and Simulation group, helping business teams making decisions by providing virtual simulation data on Packages as well as the packaging transformations on packing lines. At that time, he also began focusing on Simulation Process and Data management, aiding the development of their bespoke solution that promoted the democratization of Modelling and Simulation within the business teams.  This highly successful solution enabled end users to generate Virtual Modelling data themselves for their new packages to drive their projects.  That lead to a transfer to the corporate organization with responsibilities that now span across the entire 3DExperience platform and how it can be used to support all aspects of the directly integrated CAD to M&S work process. Sylvestre developed a deeper understanding of both CATIA and SIMULIA apps to create the best practices and workflows that combine these capabilities. The methods are now enabling non-expert users to carry out expert operations much more efficiently than with the prior detached systems and provide modeling insights not possible before.

VICTOR PINKS II | MARMION ACADEMY

CAE Workforce/Education Integrator for Businesses

Victor received his Ph.D. in chemical physics creating molecular dynamics solvers for fluid systems. It quickly became apparent to him that physical properties like viscosity and material composition were critical to final CAE product design features. With deep learning methods, he could see that bringing microscopic (molecular) solvers and CFD together promised to minimize the costly burden of difficult, dangerous, or experimentally impossible viscosity measurements.  While becoming a CAE workforce/education integrator for businesses, Dr. Pinks was compelled by companies to answer important questions such as - “Where are future simulation analysts going to come from?” Cost cutting efforts of higher education combined with escalating tuitions have not been helping companies build their CAE workforce. It seems that traditional education pathways to virtual prototyping are becoming scarce, meaning businesses will have to solve their own education problems. He wondered, “Could simulation analysts come from high schools if all conditions are right?”  The answer became a resounding “Yes.” Focusing on SIMULIA XFlow and Abaqus tools, Dr. Pinks created a new type of business-centric CAE workforce/education curriculum model that has been live tested since 2013 as CPARC (Computatlonal Prototyping And Research Center) – and the results have been nothing short of ‘stunning’.  Company projects have included many small businesses, federal agencies, aerospace, defense, fortune 50, and specialty housing. Student teams are co-led by ‘CPARC-certified’ high school students working as adjunct business interns to company decision makers. This has become a very strong position for students transitioning to college or directly to career. Some companies are now choosing to bundle them together as employment contracts.  Dr. Pinks is now collaborating on new elements of the CPARC program curriculum with industry “Lean Simulation” pioneer, Mark Zebrowski to bring virtual prototyping ‘best practices’ to companies and student simulation analysts - building a strong entry level CAE workforce for their futures.
