EuroConference on CAE Integration - Tools, Trends, and Technologies

Objective

This is a EuroConference project under the TMR programme with the aim of bringing together industrial specialists and young researchers to review "computer aided engineering (CAE) integration - tools, trends, and technologies". It addresses most branches of engineering, so that a fertile exchange of know-how, experience and ideas is encouraged.

It aims to:
1) Transfer know-how on solving practical CAE integration questions using available technologies. The aerospace, automotive, and power station branches are among the first to integrate CAE into one "push-button-software" strategy. This experience can be re-used to help others solve the same problems without costly delays or mistakes. This topic is very new and attracted 44 participants in a similar first conference in the USA in 1999.
2) Provide industrial contact opportunities for researchers who are working on new emerging technologies (e.g. shape optimisation, improved fatigue/fracture analysis techniques, improvements in boundary element, finite element, CFD, or finite difference techniques).
3) Allow researchers to exchange their experiences in the multitude of CAE software products. CAE system performance is fundamental to a competitive design environment, but for cost reasons, researchers from esp. SMEs and educational institutions are often unable to gain experience in more than one product of a kind.
Because of the fast pace of change in CAE, a series of 3 annual events is planned. They will reflect trends like Internet integration and free source software (e.g. Linux, Tcl/Tk). They will also review product-specific CAE integration problems, which some CAE manufacturers would not like to admit to inexperienced new customers.
