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

Aug 15, 2019

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 case you missed it, the webinar recording is now available!

ESRD Partners with Industry Leaders for Webinars on 3D Crack Growth & Sim App Development

ESRD Partners with Industry Leaders for Webinars on 3D Crack Growth & Sim App Development

Jul 3, 2019

Want to learn from the experts in FEA-based Simulation Application (Sim App) development for standardization & automation of complex engineering analysis tasks, such as 3D fatigue crack growth, 3D ply-by-ply laminated composite analysis or other challenging applications you’d like to safely put into the hands of non-experts?

This July, ESRD will be partnering with several industry leaders to provide not one but TWO stimulating webinars on the latest in FEA-based Sim App development.

Webinar: Simulation Governance Is Critical for Reliable Condition-Based (Predictive) Maintenance

Webinar: Simulation Governance Is Critical for Reliable Condition-Based (Predictive) Maintenance

Apr 22, 2021

April 22, 2021 @ 11:00 am EST

Strategies will be explored for developing mathematical models to support condition-based maintenance (CBM) decisions via a practical case study.

WEBINAR SUMMARY

This webinar, hosted by ESRD partner Revolution in Simulation, will present a case study in which the goal was the development of a mathematical model for supporting condition-based maintenance (CBM) decisions.

The model was designed for estimating the remaining fatigue service life of high-value mechanical components, given their service history and that specific flaws (such as corrosion defects) have been discovered in them, thus enabling CBM  to move damaged component removals from unscheduled to scheduled maintenance action.

WEBINAR HIGHLIGHTS

  • Mathematical models have both intuitive, creative components and objective, science-based components. These two components must be in equilibrium.
  • What is the difference between finite element modeling and numerical simulation?
  • What is the domain of calibration and how to specify it?
  • How the outcome of validation experiments should be evaluated and reported?
  • Why is the development of mathematical models open-ended? – Why no one can claim to have the last word?
  • Why simulation governance is essential for the success of numerical simulation projects?

Webinar: Democratization of Simulation Governance-Compliant Sim Apps

July 29, 2019 @ 1:00 pm EST

Strategies will be 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.

This webinar is now available to watch on-demand.

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

WEBINAR SUMMARY

When utilized by engineers without specialized training, simulation technologies (and Sim Apps) based on legacy FEA technologies struggle to deliver trustworthy solutions due to their inability to objectively measure & report solution quality, an essential requirement of Simulation Governance (Sim Gov). This uncertainty inhibits true democratization of engineering simulations. So what is needed?

In this timely webinar, we will discuss why it is essential that Sim Apps implement Numerical Simulation technologies which enable the practice of Sim Gov 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 Sim Gov train sooner rather than later.

WEBINAR HIGHLIGHTS

  • This four-part webinar will be jointly presented by ESRD and Revolution in Simulation (Rev-Sim), and will explore the following questions and concepts:
    • Part 1: What is a Simulation Application – Sim App?
    • Part 2: Why is Simulation Governance compliance critical for the development and deployment of FEA-based Sim Apps?
    • Part 3: What FEA technology is required to support the democratization of Simulation Governance-compliant, Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) Sim Apps?
    • Part 4: Demonstration of a Simulation Governance-compliant, FEA-based COTS tool supporting the A&D Industry for the democratization of engineering simulations (ESRD’s CAE-HB)
  • LIVE DEMO: You will see a live demonstration of ESRD’s CAE Handbook, a COTS, Sim Gov-compliant Sim App based on ESRD’s StressCheck Professional numerical simulation technology.

    Author of Verification and Validation in Scientific Computing

Testimonials

“The addition of incremental theory of plasticity in StressCheck has greatly improved our ability to accurately predict the fatigue life of joints with interference fit fasteners and cold worked holes. This ability is especially important, not only in support of maintaining aging aircraft but also in analyzing some of the new cold working techniques that have been introduced in recent years.
Prior to this implementation, analysts often relied on closed-form approximations or simple factors that were often overly conservative and sometimes even unconservative when used in life prediction. Now, not only can we more accurately predict residual stresses in these complex structural joints, but we can also do so in a timely manner given the modeling and analysis efficiency that exists with a p-version FEA code such as StressCheck.”
