‘Democratization of Simulation Governance-Compliant Sim Apps’ Webinar Recording Now Available

August 15, 2019 Events, S.A.F.E.R. Simulation, Webinars

This joint ESRD/Rev-Sim webinar will explore Sim-Gov compliant Sim Apps for democratization of simulation.

On July 29, 2019 a joint webinar on the the importance of Simulation Governance in FEA-based Sim App development & deployment, titled “Democratization of Simulation Governance-Compliant Sim Apps”, was provided by ESRD’s Brent Lancaster and Rev-Sim‘s Malcolm Panthaki.

In this timely webinar, we discussed why it is essential that Sim Apps implement Numerical Simulation technologies which enable the practice of Simulation Governance in order for the vision of democratization of simulations to be realized, as well as why it is important for engineering managers to get on the Simulation Governance train sooner rather than later. Strategies were explored for democratizing engineering simulations via Sim Apps which are: 1) based on the latest Numerical Simulation technologies, 2) available in Commercial Off the Shelf (COTS) form, and most importantly 3) Simulation Governance-compliant.

Live demos of ESRD’s CAE Handbook and Multi-Fastener Analysis Tool (MFAT) were provided in order to prove that COTS, FEA-based, Simulation Governance-compliant Sim Apps are not just “vaporwares” but plug-and-play software solutions!

Beyond the Black Box: Explainable AI Requires Explainable Simulation

Apr 7, 2026

AI is rapidly transforming engineering workflows. However, a fundamentally important issue rarely gets discussed: AI explanations are only as trustworthy as the simulations they rely on. This blog post explores the rigorous technical requirements that must be met to ensure that numerical simulations provide the transparent, machine-interpretable evidence that explainable AI demands.

Trustworthiness in Simulation: Credibility or Decision-grade Reliability?

Trustworthiness in Simulation: Credibility or Decision-grade Reliability?

May 4, 2026

Compliance with ASME and NASA standards on verification, validation, and uncertainty quantification (VVUQ) is often taken as sufficient evidence that simulation results can be trusted. This is a mistake, however. Compliance alone does not answer the question that truly matters to decision-makers: Are the predictions reliable enough for the decision at hand?

Testimonials

  • “A screening of existent commercial and non-commercial tools was carried out in respect to their fracture mechanics capabilities, their design abilities, implementation as well as their complexity. Although, there are many software possibilities, only those within the reach of the author were evaluated. This resulted in the selection of the commercial tool StressCheck. The assessment of crack propagation on compact tension and two stringer specimens governed by the Paris and Forman regimes was satisfactory compared with experimental results using the material data from simple standard specimens.”

Testimonials

“As the United States Air Force continues to extend the service life of their aircraft the Aircraft Structural Integrity Program (ASIP) has had to refine the methods it uses to analyze and predict fatigue crack growth. Through the use StressCheck, coupled with AFGROW, we in A-10 ASIP have been able to more accurately model, predict and analyze critical aircraft structure for the A-10 and other types of structure for non-A-10 system managers. This also allows us within the A-10 to more accurately assess risk for decision makers, streamline aircraft inductions into scheduled maintenance and reduce cost for total life cycle management.”
