NAFEMS seminar in Zagreb

The benefits of Simulation

The Nonprofit Association of Engineering, NAFEMS, held the first seminar “The Benefits of Simulation” in Zagreb on March 25, 2019, at the Palace Hotel.

The main goal of the seminar was to show how companies can check and be sure they have constructed models that can be manufactured with the latest materials at the lowest prices and in the shortest time.

Let’s point out some of the companies that presented the business value of simulation and business analysis: Rimac Automobili, Continental AG, Končar and Danfoss Trata. Most of the lecturers emphasized that without using tools for simulations and analyses there would be delayed of the product launch for several months.

Additionally, to achieve the best possible results, it is necessary that simulation engineers cooperate with designers, engineers, electronics engineers, and technologists. That’s why choosing a simulation tool is a strategic decision, and it’s important to choose the right solution and partners with knowledge and experience to ultimately use the simulation multiple time. Also, the close cooperation between CAE and CAD engineers results with even better results.

Simulation technology development as a core business of Altair

As the world’s largest privately held CAE software and HPC technology developer, Altair is focused on developing simulation-driven solutions to foster innovation and improve business performance.

HyperWorks® simulation and solidThinking® design software suites impact product design from the earliest conceptual design stages through product performance optimization. Over the last two decades, Altair has pioneered simulation-driven technologies to generate innovative design solutions for our clients. It has resulted in products that exhibit minimum weight and outstanding performance in industry leading timescales.

High-performance computing (HPC) is an integral part of Altair product strategy to enable simulation-driven design. Altair works closely with leading HPC facilities, including those in the Top500 supercomputing sites, and has become the largest workload management solution provider globally. Today,  PBS Works™ technology, knowledge and hardware partnerships provide the foundation for cloud-based computing solutions as well as managed appliances.
