Application: New Era of Valve Design and Engineering

Posted Mon January 13, 2020 @09:34AM

The 4th industrial revolution is upon us. Few have already created the roadmap and following it rigorously, few have started analyzing the business impact and getting ready for it, and few are still thinking that it's far future and may not impact their business.

Irrespective of what is the approach of individual business leaders, the whole industry is going at a rapid pace to adapt to the "biggest industrial revolution in the history of mankind".

Application: The World Solar Challenge - Aerodynamic Simulation of Rotating Wheels in a Solar Car

Posted Sun January 12, 2020 @02:28PM

Every 2 years competitors from around the world set out on a grueling race across the Australian outback: the World Solar Challenge.

The competing solar-powered cars are built by some of the brightest young minds on the planet. Student teams from all over the world, push the limits of technological innovation by engineering and building a vehicle with their own hands, powered only by the sun. The competition is designed to promote research on solar-powered cars.

Survey Launched on Mesh Types and Sizes Used for CFD

Posted Mon December 30, 2019 @11:38AM

Pointwise has launched a survey of the CFD market to assess the relative popularity of mesh types and sizes with a goal of assessing where the industry is headed in terms of flow solver and meshing technology.

"I remember in the 1980s that CFD meshes were virtually all multi-block, structured hexahedra," said John Chawner, Pointwise’s president. "Today, a wide variety of mesh types, each with their own relative advantages, serves an even wider variety of flow solver technology. This survey is an attempt to discover where the technology is headed and seek any points of convergence."
