Wilde Events from Wilde FEA
CAE to CAD - NAFEMS Workshop

Tuesday 18 March 2008 - Nottingham

The event aims to explore the existing, and state of the art solutions to provide feedback from CAE simulations to the CAD environment. This should lead the discussions to identify the limitations and barriers preventing users getting to the ultimate solution.

Event Scope

To help focus the presentations and discussions here are some questions to define the scope of the event :-

What feedback is required ?
What data is required to support the feedback, i.e. parameters, values, precise geometry, mesh etc ?
How is the feedback data managed ?
How does the feedback benefit the overall design process ?
Can Open Standards be part of the solution, or does it require a vendor supplied solution ?
What methods are used to interpret the CAE data to provide the feedback ?
How do closed loop systems (i.e. optimization and robustness) differ from open loop systems in providing feedback ?
What would be the perfect solution ?


Event Format
The event will be a mix of presentations from NAFEMS members and software providers. As a conclusion to the day, a round table panel discussion with the presenters will provide an opportunity for Q&A and discussions. A summary of the day’s information on future needs will be briefly presented.
