Many industrials agree to say that two of the main bottlenecks of Simulation-Based Engineering Sciences (SBES) and Virtual Design Engineering are in CAD-CAE integration and in the lack of large-scale and efficient Simulation Lifecycle Management (SLM) tools.
On the CAD-CAE integration side, many efforts and developments are currently made both by ISVs, IT companies and simulation industrial end-users (mainly from aerospace and automotive sectors).
This mini-symposium will highlight the major improvements made in this field.
The associativity between 3D CAD-CAE models and 1D
systems models will also be addressed.
On the SLM side, some ISVs, IT companies and even some industrial end-users (from aerospace sector) have recently introduced pioneering SLM tools enabling to get integrated numerical process in a common Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) environment.
This mini-symposium will address the challenges to get SLM
tools at the best state-of-the-art and responding to industry requirements. Such tools should allow:
-
services, data, network, computing, storage to be seen as a resource, and shared-used in a common and consistent way over non homogeneous environments;
-
predictive reliable simulation of complex multi-physics and multi-scale problems;
-boosting the delivery of simulation results for accelerated time to milestones programs constraints;
-
efficient management of all applications and programs;
-
robustness, repeatability, traceability of simulation processes;
-
synchronisation and coherence between product data and simulation data;
-
automatic processes supporting.
All these items will be addressed by this mini-symposium.
