Finite Element Analysis

• Last week, my article about Open Source simulation codes has been published in one of the Polish engineering magazines. I presented there also my own FEA code which one can see in the attached video! [GITHUB]

• Realistic Hydroplaning based on FEA results [VID]

• Siemens Simcenter and theirs digital twin [VID]

• It’s here because all simulations of stents are awesome! [TWEET]

Computational Fluid Dynamics

• Autodesk shows a new algorithm for converting unstructured triangle meshes into ones with a consistent topology for machine learning applications. This video is incredible, but the part in this LINK is even better! The paper shows a study in which the mentioned technique is used in aerodynamic shape optimisation [ART]

• Machine learning based valve design app [ART]

• Ansys has been used to build a vertical wind tunnel to study skydiving conditions. [VID]

• Hull design using CFD [VID]

Other types of simulation

• Extreme deformation of thin plate using vertex-centred Finite Volume Method [VID]

Engineering

• In-depth look at the major changes McLaren made to its 2018 F1 car at the Spanish Grand Prix. [VID]

• Virtual reality and electric motors [ART]

• Water made active [ART]
