In mid-May 2023, ESRD’s Co-Founder and Chairman Dr. Barna Szabó delivered a keynote presentation at the ASME VVUQ 2023 Symposium in Baltimore, Maryland, USA. Dr. Szabó’s presentation, entitled “Simulation Governance: An Idea Whose Time Has Come”, will focus on the goals and means of Simulation Governance with reference to mechanical/aerospace engineering practice.
The abstract of the keynote presentation was as follows:
Mathematical models have become indispensable sources of information on which technical and business decisions are based. It is therefore vitally important for decision-makers to know whether or not they should rely on the predictions of a particular mathematical model.
The presentation will focus on the reliability of information generated by mathematical models. Reliability is ensured through proper application of the procedures of verification, validation and uncertainty quantification. Examples will be presented.
It will be shown that mathematical models are products of open-ended evolutionary processes. One of the key objectives of simulation governance is to establish and maintain a hospitable environment for the evolutionary development of mathematical models. A very substantial unrealized potential exists in numerical simulation technology. It is the responsibility of management to establish conditions that will make realization of that potential possible.

Thirty years ago, on August 2nd, 1989, Engineering Software Research & Development, Inc. (ESRD) was founded in St. Louis, MO, USA. To commemorate this milestone, ESRD's President & CEO Dr. Ricardo Actis would like to share a few words with you. Please take a few moments to read his commemoration.

In this third of our multi-part series on “S.A.F.E.R. Numerical Simulation for Structural Analysis in the Aerospace Industry” we will examine why Numerical Simulation is not the same as Finite Element Modeling and what this means to the structural analysis function within the A&D industry. [...]

ESRD is pleased to join Hill Engineering, LLC (developers of BAMF) and LexTech, Inc. (developers of AFGROW) for a joint webinar on July 17, 2019 @ 1:00 pm EST.
This collaborative webinar will be titled "3D Crack Growth Simulation: Advancements & Applications", and will detail the latest technological advancements for accurate simulation of three-dimensional metallic crack growth via coupled finite element analysis (FEA) and fatigue life computations.
“Through the use of StressCheck the A-10 Aircraft Structural Integrity Program’s (ASIP) Analysis Group is able to model more accurately the physics of fatigue crack propagation in critical aircraft structure. Through this tool we are able to model, analyze and predict failure of aircraft structure and then develop crucial inspection and maintenance planes to ensure the safety and sustainability of our nations warplanes. Without the analysis capability provided to us through StressCheck we would not be able to provide accurate assessments of the A-10 structure to top USAF leadership.”
