So much CFD news this week including a lot of software launches and a plethora of OpenFOAM versions. (So many OFs that I rhetorically ask for someone to map the OF universe for me.) There’s a very good read on the topic of Simulation and Understanding. The image shown here is a car wash sim from PreonLab. And Pointwise is now accepting applications for summer 2020 internships. All this and more ahead.

This week’s CFD news seems to be dominated by business deals (involving FieldView, ANSYS, and more) and automotive applications. A new conference on CAE interoperability was announced for next year and I hope one of you can attend and share what happened there. Right here we have an image from an article asking “What is FEA?” 
While you were enjoying your day off yesterday, Pointwise silently turned 25 years old. We had already celebrated with a lot of you at the reception we hosted at AIAA Aviation this summer in Dallas. (If only that rainstorm hadn’t delayed so many flights.) 
The past two weeks have yielded two “must see” CFD articles. The first is on the data management and visualization aspects of using pressure sensitive paint in wind tunnel testing of NASA’s Space Launch System. The second delves into splines which are so essential to geometry modeling and meshing. There’s lots of other news too, including the anouncement of Altair’s acquisition of DEM Solutions. The image shown here is a screen capture from a video about the acquisition showing one application of EDEM.RSS Feed
