Welcome to S.A.F.E.R. Simulation – a blog by ESRD! Here, you will find stimulating discussions on topics like Numerical Simulation, Simulation Governance, best practices and lessons learned, technology for the Aerospace & Defense industry, NAFEMS initiatives, and more.
Our blog’s mission is to identify, explore and communicate Numerical Simulation technologies and solutions for the A&D industry that are Simple, Accurate, Fast, Efficient & Reliable.
In this S.A.F.E.R. Simulation article, we explore the concept of Hierarchic Modeling, some practical applications of Hierarchic Modeling, and the importance of implementing a Hierarchic Modeling framework in CAE software tools to support the practice of Simulation Governance.

How can the vision for expanding the use of numerical simulation by persons who do not have expertise in finite element analysis (FEA) be safely realized? The solution lies in the establishment of Simulation Governance through the development and dissemination of expert-designed Engineering Simulation Apps. Read more[...]
